hafitalSurfacing briefly to say I'm here, I'm alive, I'm more or less doing perfectly okay.
On the thesis front, I still don't have a draft although I'm close enough I can see it waving to me. I'm currently struggling with the pros and cons of giving myself one more semester to finish. They brought forward the deadline up so close that I'm not sure it's worth it for me to try and finish and not really have time to do proper revisions and draft work. The program has shifted the emphasis on the thesis for incoming students so that they actually start working on it as they enter, but that means those of us who are ready to finish don't get that benefit.
I'm mulling it over. I know I could finish this semester, but maybe I should give myself the time. It's not easy working full time, going to school, having a moderately active social life, AND writing a novel with a deadline fast approaching (Nov. 4). In fact, it sorta sucks, and I'm not the best with time management nor a particularly fast writer. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
melina123, don't worry, this would not interfere with any of our plans.)
Other then thesis/novel writing hell, life is just dandy. Busy. Work is going to be exploding very soon (incidently, work will be exploding the same time that my thesis is due for this semester. The universe laughs at me.)
la la la. Don't mind me, I'm just going slighty batty over here.
