    Awww...thanks guys. I feel like a proper proud mum. We made friends with 3 new dogs today as well!! She was much more confident - so I'm really pleased with that. We've done more practice on our lesson...we are going for most improved next week (don't even know if they do that...lol). Competitive....me??? Nah. :rotfl:

    I have managed to do 1'107 words on my dissertation as well. :D I've done my intro, literature review and some of my references. Tomorrows job is to start on the methodology. Yawn. I reckon I'll get the bulk of it done by tomorrow....she said optimistically. :D

    I've done 1'036 words today! How good is that? I'm sure what I'm doing is pants but at least I'm getting somewhere. Yey! I also have a better idea about what I'm actually going to do for the dissertation itself now as well! :D

    well done!! I am glad the days of dissertations are behind me.... red bull and sweets I think got me through most of it! :) (not the healthiest tip tho, nor the most money saving with the price of red bull!)

    I'm just glad I have the summer holidays to get the assignment written up. Doing it whilst at school is NOT an easy option. I do wonder why on earth I'm doing an MA at times. But I've done the bulk of the work now and I know exactly what I'm doing for my diss now as well so I'm a happy bunny.

    In fact I've already done the first part of the practical aspect of it so technically I could actually start writing my actual dis when I finish this proposal. Hmmmm....we'll see how I feel when I get that far I think. Ha ha.

    so much easier to rewrite what's already written rather than write it in the first place so whether or not it's pants is completely irrelevant! Well done, keep plugging away :D

    Cheers ears up to 2254 in total now and have read 4 more articles. I'm not going to write anything else now because my brain is mashed and I know that whatever I did write would make no sense whatsoever! Ha ha. Still, I did more than I expected today so I'm really really happy! :D I'd love to be able to submit it on Monday just so it's not hanging over me.

    Was feeling really down in the dumps before because of the lack of progress I've been making on my dissertation proposal...then I realised, I actually done 1'288 words so far today! Thats not a bad thing then. :D

    And this is despite the pup monster being a pain in the bottom today. We've not been on a long walk today because the rain is lashing down and the wind is C R A Z Y. So we've just done a little walk around the streets rather than up to the rather exposed field!! I am hoping I can get as far as 3750 words today and then I'll be happy. Who am I kidding I wanna hit 4000. I'm a rubbish lier! :p

    I'm very proud of myself. I got to 3988 words. That will do I think. I need to do some more reading thought to eek out the last 500 words. But I think I will actually finish on Monday. I might leave it then and come back to it on Wednesday...read through and then submit! How good would that be!!! Yey me. :D
