chocchick Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I now have 1 week to go to hand in my PhD in as it's my 4 year deadline Apologies if I've seemed slightly loopy on the forum recently-as well as visiting frequently I'm here still working..... Waiting to be able to post I've submitted in the congratulations forum , but new things crop up every day My viva will be before Christmas, depending on the examiners I choose.

Cate in NZ Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Good luck Chocchick, I hope you manage to submit it all in time . I have every respect for those who persevere with academic stidies (says one who ducked out of her MSc.......... well happy with a PGdip, and no ambitions for further academic progress Keep working, get it done girl, and I'll be lurking in the congratulations thread with a virtual bottle of champers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my sister's boyfriend has his deadline soon too, except he'll become a Dr of chemical engineering, (I think, not too sure). GOOD LUCK!

chocchick Posted September 22, 2007 Author Share Posted September 22, 2007 er.... they've had lots of leaves to munch on, and I've had lots of cups of tea The current block is actually that I realised I didn't understand something I thought I did and have to reword to field off questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Not long now, Choccy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Good luck Choccy, what a fantastic achievement. You must be very proud of yourself for sticking with it through thick and thin. I'm bit like KateA i'm afraid. Started an MA 2 years ago......deferred it as I got married, I thin moved house, then had Stefan.......and I'm far too busy now to even consider taking it up again, with all the reading and submitting I have to do. Hopefully I'll get the bug later on when Stefan goes to school...hmmmmm..make that university. Tons of luck for your hand-in and viva.

chocchick Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 This is not a good weekend. I barely slept a wink and spent most of the early hours of the morning working I'm now in the office on a Sunday night trying to deal with final corrections, fragmented files that won't open and printing. May be here a while yet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Sorry to hear that Chocchick! I hate computers!!! hope it works out ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 All the best - and congrats whatever. I did a Masters about 5 years ago and found it really hard, especially the final dissertation. Trying to do it alongside work was really hard, so I admire your perseverance. All the very best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 I'm printed Just trying to jump through administrative hoops so I can have it bound ready to submit about Thursday. Sat I worked 1-2 hours before 1am, then 3.30-7.30 am then worked from 8.30 for a bit, had a doze and spent 19.30-00.00 printing and struggling with files- which of course never work at midnight, but do at 10 in the morning today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
