We’ll see what happens
Yesterday morning at 9:45 I sent an e-mail to my thesis supervisor with a draft of my entire thesis. I had read through it as a whole, and it’s 600 words over the 15,000 word-limit, so I’ll probably read through it again this weekend and see if there’s some things I can take out, although hopefully Mark will have some suggestions too. I figured he probably wouldn’t read it over the weekend, but I thought I would send it anyway. Then he wrote back and said his family doesn’t like him “working” on the weekends, but this is more of a hobby so he might get to some of it. I’m just hoping he doesn’t have too many comments, so that I can fix things and still turn it in by the end of term. I really want to be done with it, so I’ll be able to take that time off my schedule and have more time for studying for exams. But now I just have to wait and see.
Also, yesterday I got my collection back. I got a 64, which isn’t bad, but his comments sort of made it seem like it wasn’t great. So I don’t know. He said I had sound argument, but I just didn’t prove it. So now I have more work to do for that class. Although one of his suggestions was to read more, and that’s what I’ve been doing, just reading a book on the Cold War. I have about 200 more pages to read, so I’m aiming to get it done before I leave. This morning I finally finished my book on British politics that I’ve been reading, so there’s one thing I can check off.
So today I’ve got a lot I can do, but I’m going to go down to the river and watch the boys race first. I went down yesterday, and they bumped, but then they didn’t get out of the race lane quickly enough, which wasn’t really their fault, but they got penalized by taking their bump away, so that was sad. Hopefully they’ll bump today. The girls aren’t racing this term, so it’s just the guys to watch. I’m looking forward to Summer Eights again. Hopefully my exams will be done and I can go down and watch everyone. This time I’m just going to be on the sidelines, but I don’t think we could top last year, so it’s okay.
