Hi Cindrella,
Glad to hear from you. I too have not submitted yet. Got feedback from supervisors for the draft thesis and doing corrections at the moment.
Wow..so happy for you. Good luck with all the important events in your life and wish you best for all !! Keep updating.

Hi all,
I have been considering to send one of my chapters for publication and wondering whether I have to write that this is the chapter from my thesis. I presented a paper in one conference and an editor of a journal sent email to consider my presentation for publication. Please suggest. Thanks, Swetch
Hi Cindrella,
I agree with Lindalou83's suggestions of taking a short break and talking to supervisor. It is very natural for us to feel burnt out. I can understand your feeling at this stage. Hope, all goes well and your problems will be solved soon. swetch
Hi Marasp,
Just to add on to my earlier response: I am glad to find that my University has Turnitin installed encouraging students to have a check before submitting essays, thesis. I never tried that before. Just had a check this morning one of my chapter and relieved to see just 1% match :)

Hi all, i am nearing submission. I have referenced all the sources cited. Still, want to make sure that I have not missed any such reference. My uni too uses Turnitin. Is it possible to scan through turnitin on our own? Can we ask in our own Uni or is there any other way to use it? Thanks. Swetch
HI Emmaki,
I could not find the original one. Now, I have changed something similar from other author. I found it more comfortable than being in confusion.
I understand...write up has not been easy to me as well. I too have problem of writing in English being int. student. I can't express what I want and meeting sups' expectations is always a challenge. Wish you good luck with yr write up. I am sure you will do it. Swetch
Thanks Emmaki for yr reply. By the way, how is yr work going? I used to read yr post earlier but now could not keep up with yr updates. Hope u are doing well.

To continue with earlier question:
Brullie in one of his journal article published in 2005 in page 86 has written like this: All we need to have is patience on what we do (Hanny, 2000).
From this line, I figured out this is Hanny's idea. Since he has not put it in quote and referred page number, this definitely the paraphrased one. I picked it from Brullies' 2005 article, page 86 and hence gave the reference as this: "All we need to have is patience on what we do" (Hanny, 2000 cited in Brullie, 2005: 86). Hope, I am not wrong.
