Today I am a PhD student!

I have worrrrrked! I worked very hard!

I worked for an hour this morning then had lunch and then came back and at two decided I would work until 3.30 and worked until gone half six! Worked away! I am very pleased. I was getting brain dead and reached a natural conclusion so finished and am now making some grub (tuna pasta bake - student favourite. Not out of a packet mind, oh no... Mature student favourite?!)

I managed to get my fantastic introduction placed at different points in the text I already have so I don't get lost as I am going through/veer off randomly/repeat myself. I also cut out a lot of text on an 'insert' that I will keep on a seperate sheet to re-paste back in in section one as I go along. This means hopefully this section should be completed very soon. (Tomorrow if I work like today again...).

I got an email saying that my lego game has been posted today. Could this have anything to do with it my productivity?! That, and the fact that it is wednesday and I wanted to finish it this week. I don't think that will happen but I am not very far off. I do have 7200 words, they are just all in the wrong place (or were, until this afternoon), they need scrubbing up and putting nice clothes on. A good tight conclusion and then I am done. I think.

It will be harder than that I know. Oh well, just get this section done and then think about the next.

I can't get onto the forum to make any posts which is sad. maybe this has something to do with my productivity?! No, I don't think so really. Although I would like to say 'not a problem' to pamw who thanked me for the link on this site to the forum! And so if you are out there: not a problem! ;-))

Am not going to do any more work this evening.

Tomorrow I have a five mile run to do (which I am bizarrely looking forward to?!) and I want to get the 'insert' part of the chapter filled in to the actual work, which should herald the end of section one...

Oooh, as well - someone on the forum randomly said that they use Word 2007 instead of endnote for their referencing as it is built-in. I have word 2007! So I had a look and it was true! And it puts the references exactly as I like them, and it means I don't have to have endnote open at the same time and flit beteen the two pages (annoying), and you can edit the sources from the actual citation and it Just. Is. Great.

I hope I work tomorrow! For some reason I seem to be much more productive when it is raining... Love the rain.

Have good evenings all!
