The dreaded dissertation draft is due in 2 weeks, I've started spewing some random thoughts into a Word document and have somehow come up with a plan and some ramblings which has made about 600 words. That's without opening a book or Google Scholar. I'm impressed.
My dissertation supervisor has never been worried about me, he has said from the start that he thinks I'm more than capable and is impressed with the start I made to my research, he also thought my final study would be "funky". Now, I don't know about funky, but ever since he said he wasn't worried, I haven't really been either, I'm also quite good at blagging. Job interviews, tutorials, you name it, I've faked it, and made it.
I'm good at turning on the charm and asking the right questions in the right places which is ok for a part time job interview, but I'm a little frightened that I've managed to fool my tutor into thinking I know more than I do! He's confident, and that made me so confident that I've stopped working on it. Today was the first time in 2 weeks that I actually bothered to pick up my dissertation file off the floor and open the blank word document. Now I've got two weeks and a lot of plans (Juno previews in the Odeon this weekend you see, and I absolutely MUST accompany Julie to a family party, she couldn't possibly go alone!) I forsee lots of library days.... Any spare change for a manky coffee or two?
On other thoughts, I've been perusing a few more blogs than my usual favourites and have wasted quite a lot of my life, well not wasted because every one was honest and true and mostly well written, but how do I fit this rekindled passion for other people's ramblings in with all the Uni work, and knitting, and drinking, and SingStar, and Guitar Hero, and friends, and the boyfriend.... Suggestions welcome!
