I must say that this week I have slack off when it came to my thesis and will be writing like a machine this upcoming week. There were so many things that were in my way to distract me. I had plenty of help from my friends but they had me really going with their weddings. I put my thesis to the back burner and really think that I will regret this in the long run. I have powerful facts and great quotes from doctors, lawyers, and teachers that I spoke to when I was at the receptions. So, maybe I didn't get rid of work all together at all. I still was thinking of school. I just really can't believe that in a few days I will be turning in a paper that I have worked on so hard and recieve constructive criticism on. I am a bit nervous about this it is like giving your child to the world and hoping that everyone likes them. As, I sit here and think that all of this I just tell myself the fun is over and now it is back to the thesis.

You will get your thesis done, Aletha. Don't worry. I hope you enjoyed your weekend with family and friends. Just think next week at this time we will have our thesis turned in and starting a new course. Wow. Great picture, too.
ReplyDeleteI too am like the Apostle Paul who had a thorn in his side. I don't want to hear this word for at least a year after I finish the program. It is a ringing in my ear and the force that suppresses the feeling of peace, carefreeness, and fun in my life.
ReplyDeleteYes, I do love the work that we're doing, but I have been experiencing more anxiety than I have ever felt in my life. The pressure to do a great job among these experts, when I am just a novice is a bolder among my chest.
The stones and mockery of the public are chastising me. I am ashamed of my work at times and wish there was more time, more strength, and more work ethic that would push this thing into a glorious and revolutionizing piece.
I may just be putting more pressure on myself than usual, but it truly does grip me. The thought that I cannot bear would be taking a hiatus because the omen of it would cast its shadow among my mind and drive me to insanity.
Ah, but the fun isn't over... it's just a different kind of fun. :-D
