Citation Excitement

J

Hey guys,

I've had a really rubbish couple of weeks since I submitted my thesis, but today has made it all better.

I found out today that the first article I had published (in 2008) has been cited by a really big academic in their new book. This is the first time I've ever been cited by someone else (except undergrads in assignments), and for it to be someone so big in my area, I really am finding it hard to contain my excitement. I called my partner to tell him, and he really wasn't getting why I was so hyped about this. So I thought I'd share my joy with you guys!

Yay! 8-)

OMG I would be SOOO excited by that. Congratulations Jinkim!

Woo, that's really exciting! That's actual recognition that you've done worthwhile research and said something new. Congratulations, no wonder you're happy :-)

Thanks guys!! I knew you'd understand my excitement.

Has anyone else had good news to brighten their day? :-)

Wow thats fantastic news - well done!! How did you find out?

My day was brightened a little bit today - my PhD application seems to be going well but it's early days so it could all change; and less importantly I have a date this weekend!

Hope your date went well this weekend Natassia!!

I found out on google. I was looking for a PDF copy of the article to send to someone and it says on google scholar if the article's been cited anywhere else.

It made me smile... a big massive toothy grin!8-)

Nice one(up)8-)

So it was a lovely surprise then Jinkim - I bet your supervisor's happy!

Date went very well as far as I can tell....very early days but he's lovely. I think it will be difficult as I'm too busy to see him very often, I don't want to piss him off but at the moment the MSc comes first - he'll just have to understand! Nx
