supervsior had crisis. rather than hour got 10mins. Waiting around etc. Quite annoyed. Had to wait 2months for this meeting. Now going to give me date for viva. She doubts we can have a meeting before then. What joy. I have to cut my transfer in half cos they dont want to read stuff even though they told me to put it in. insanity.
i have a supervision meeting - they are every 2 months, I am always scared of them . Omg - o have butterflies in tummy. I am petrified. I know it will eb fine. But i am scared. Agrh. Fingers crossed.
it will be fine! It will all be fine! Everything is going to be ok! Everything is going to be fine! Just keep telling yourself that!!! And you will go slowly insane like me... mwaahahahahahahahas
don't worry. Concentrate on the PhD. Papers will happen in due time.
"What are you doing here?!"
thank you very much for the sympathy. i have just done that autosave stuff. Uusally quite good with this stuff dont know what has got into me. Hope you are all ok!
i didnt save thyis morning! Woke up at 4am. Didnt save. Now at uni. AGRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH So stupid!!
Anyone of yous done something this stupid?!
thank you all so much for beign so supportive What am finding difficult is that i didnt really like her, we didnt get on adn I didnt know she was ill and i thought cos of that i would be fine.But i am getting angry with people that tell me how sorry they are etc etc. I just want to scream to say i hated her anyway. But then still feel bad shes gone. This sounds strange and selfish i know. But i dunno. Thank you all for your help. My transfer was due in last wednesday but theyve given me an exension until tomorrow. I know there isnt much to do on it now but am not in the right frame of mind. Just going insane. Thanks again.
i am angry. I had to take the last week off cos my nan passed away. I have so much more to do. But for some reason now that i have settled back into uni my emotions are taking over and I AM ANGRY. i dont know why. I get annoyed when people tell me how sorry they are etc etc etc. I have my mini-thesis due in soon so i really need to send it to them. I cant concentrate. Any tips. My supervisors are aware of teh situation BUT there is a limit to everything. I dotn know what to do.
Otto - i totally understand how you feel. I am going insane. Sometimes it gets to a point where you just can't take it anymore. I have lots of these emails saved in my drafts folder.
Thank you so much. I felt like ive been going insane. As i just want the reader to understand what I am on about. I can also imagine the reader getting bored of the numerous changes etc. But it all counts do the development of the tool i guess. Thanks.
agrh - i am finding it very difficult to structure a chapter. Ive spoken to teh supervisors and they tell me to do it chronologically... but i am going insane. Ok basically its my results section. I have conducted two pilot surveys, both have had significant changes due to the commetns and the data recieved from the pervious. But the results are still valid becuase i need to justify why questions have changed. Basically i am finding it difficult to sort this chapter. Would it be Chapter x: questionnaire 1 - questions changed and analysis of data then questionnaire 2 - questions changed and analysis of data.
If the questionnaires have the questions that are unchanged would it be possible to collate teh two for a combined set of results.
I am really sorry if this is unclear or sounds really bad but i am at my wits end and its driving me insane. Again appologies and sorry.
congrats.
Yep - i like poster sessions as well, a great opportunity for meeting people.
Yeh i get what you mean - i really do. I just thought that my body would react when i kept thinking agrh deadline- deadline etc etc but instead of the adrenaline its just making me tired. Ive submitted the most embarressing article. No story no nothing. Taking tomorrow off.
i used to be mad on deadlines for papers etc - like i had a sense of urgency and I had adrenaline pumping nad id stay up all night to get everything done. NOW i dont care - i want to sleep instead of write stuff - i have an article to submit but its just trash and I am considering not bothering. IS THIS NORMAL? I just dont care. How do I get out of this?!
