who's planning an alnighter tonight? I'll start now, hoping to work through till 1pm, then sleep till 10, check and correct and repeat the same on Sat and Sunday. Anybody having similar plans for this weekend. It's just impossible for me to get any work done during the day.
I just rang the guy and pretended to be Dr Smith from University of Maastricht. This guy is hilarious.
He said: "I request MBA from Netherlands". I said "Our institution would be honoured to accept your application, however, would you also be willing to do some teaching for our Master students?" He said:"Yes, I can do that". Then I had to put down the phone because I started laughing out loud.
It organises your references, makes it easy to access the list, change it, and later to transfer it into a word document prior to submission of your thesis. I strongly recommend its use, I've seen enough people running into trouble with regular word document reference lists.
Nevertheless, don't expect wonders from the programme, it's simple and doesn't have that many options apart from the ones described above. But then, what more do you need?
With regard to having to be selfish, I agree with all previous statements. I found it out the hard way. But at the same time it makes me guilty and I feel I might have taken the wrong decision - if we end a relationsship because of the PhD pressures we actually value some stupid university course higher than the potential life together with one person. Which I found sad and not the right thing. Because, without the PHD pressure, perhaps we would have lived together forever and now I'll never find out. On the other hand, the PhD leaves no choice because it is like a marriage: it's just not possible to be married with two women at the same time and to give them both the same amount of time. So one of the two will have to go, which is a dilemma. And because that's happened to me, just one more reason to hate the PhD.
"Reading this has just made me feel socially superior to all the chavs in Croydon who have difficulty opening a train door. "That's right you Burberry-clad, muppet-features, push the pretty glowing button..."
Hypothesis, you sound like a stuck up, arrogant idi**. Perhaps you're not, but that's what it seems like if you provide statements like this.
