    My dissertation next year is 10,000 words, and im dreading it!!

    Yours is more than double that...i can imagine the stress!!
    How far have you got with it?xx
    I always put my work off until the last minute, and get easily distracted...by comping!:o
    Bet you've got the same problem!:D

    Im gonna go and watch some telly inabit too! Am so behind with emmerdale and corrie, i've given up with them, but still watch enders!:D

    Mine is actually 8 times longer Sally: I have to submit 80.000 words :eek: (I don't mind doing this in the inn :D ) Yours is, in a way, more challenging since it is restricted in word count you have to be more to the point and selective but I am sure you can do it.

    I have finished data collection and initial analysis but this chapter is still scattered, more like notes. I thought if I write down an outline, then I can restructure it, make my themes flow and enrich my interpretation etc. I originally planned earlier submission but noe I have until the end of the summer and I am about 70% done. Imagine spending the summer typing notes :( how boring . Yes, I am finding it very hard to concentrate for long hours (for various reasons) but I have to be strong willed.

    Gert, I can imagine x forget these idiots and don't let them spoil your weekend, thinking about them is actually a lot worse than they can actually do (even in the worst unlikely scenario of them tricking their way in). I hope you sort all this out soon but please don't let it stress you. . Please try to forget this bunch of gangsters and have a great weekend x

    I have a reserve wine :D and will work hard to earn it so I should start studying in 15 minutes xx
