Thesis Update

Mar 11, 2008 23:24


Posting this to keep me honest - and since I'm in the home stretch, I need a bit of motivation.  I'm at a point where I need to read through everything myself in detail to make sure that not only is my argument addressing everything I say I'm going to address, but that what I'm saying makes sense.  This all needs to be in my advisor's hands by Thursday - latest Friday - because it has to be to my committee by Monday/Tuesday.

Here's where I'm at:

Updated - 3/13 4:45pm 6:35pm
3/14 2:41am (I know, shut up)

Words: 18,186 18,458 18,745 19,868
Pages: 54 56 57 60 (my advisor is either going to be happy or annoyed, but whatever)

Here's what I have to do:
- Read Intro
- Revise Intro * one paragraph needs work but after I finish Chapter 3
- Read Chapter 2
- Revise Chapter 2 - in progress * one paragraph needs a quote and analysis
- Read Chapter 3 - in progress * I may need an additional iteration of reading/revising on this one.
- Revise Chapter 3 - in progress (this is a major re-write)
- Read Conclusion
- Revise Conclusion
- Make sure formatting is correct
- Check page numbers and citations
- drink myself into a stupor
