Woo-hoo!!!!
Sunday, July 30th, 2006 Jul 30th, 2006 leave a response

I just finished the first draft of my master’s thesis!!!

Words written yesterday and today: 1758
Total word count: 17743
Pages, not including prelims: 63

OMG, I can’t believe I did it! Three weeks, 12000 words. I am beat and ecstatic. And I hope it holds up. I won’t send it to my mentor until Monday (1 day before deadline), so I might end up messing with the conclusion a bit. The conclusion is shorter than I thought. I expected 10 pages early on. I reduced that to around 5 last week, and ended up with 4. I think I said everything that needs to be said though. Guess I’ll find out next week when my mentor gets a look at it.

    Thanks, Terry and Cyn! I did indeed have a glass of champagne for each of you. And more for myself. In fact, we polished off two bottles. :) Slowly over the course of the evening, naturally, but it was still darned good. When the thing gets officially accepted and I have all the approval signatures (I hope, I hope), I’m getting a bottle of the good stuff. Well, as good as I can afford, which will probably be Veuve Clicquot or Moet. :)
