Some thesisy news - Good? Bad? No, but sort of terrifying all the same
So the Super Super laid down some pretty firm deadlines. Sadly, one of them was for yesterday afternoon, which I didn't meet because I didn't actually see her email until about 2:30 am this morning. Crap.
But the other one is my defense deadline. She want's me to defend the first week of June, at the latest, which means submitting mid-May. This is because she leaves to do field work mid-June, and then on Sabbatical in July. It's fair enough and frankly, I want this done asap, but it's also terrifying, you know? I'm struggling to write my lit review (although it's finally sort of coming along), I have to finish about 1/3 of my results chapter, then the entire discussion and conclusions chapter. Plus all the final fiddly stuff, like tweaking my appendices (which are mostly done, thank frickin' God) and making sure the references are consistent and complete.
And I've got about a month to do it.
But on the bright shiny silver lining side, that means I have about a month left of hell thesis work to do. A very intense month, but only a month.
