post from the woods.

breaking news.

I have been given credits for my "thesis seminar," whole ONE that it was worth of, and that was the only thing barring me from taking my finals. Good to know I can at least take them. LOL! Anyway according to my school´s information system, it was inserted into information system on August 19 2010, time. 14:13 (which is clearly why I have been able to see it ONLY TODAY) and officially granted to me on, read well my friends, June, 30th 2008. Backdating is clearly not a strong skill of my consultant.

I still do not have her evaluation, but I suppose since she decided to give me the credit(s), she likes the thesis enough to let me go to the defence.

I however HAVE the evaluation of my opponent. Her biggest problem with my thesis was basically that it had typos in it (My Word kept changing every arbitrability to arbitrabitlity, which is not even a word- or is it? and I clearly managed to miss a few of them). The funny thing is, she had two typos in the section where she tells me I have typos.

I do love my school. It´s Friday, late afternoon here, so I will not know more until Monday but I have a feeling I might be packing my bags on Monday and having the defence on like Wednesday next week.

Oh yeah, the opponent proposed B as a grade for my thesis (and we do not have A- or B+ in school, so it is the second best grade), my mum got all defensive after reading the evaluation saying she could have given me A and I just googled my opponent because I have not heard of her while in school and found out she graduated in 2008, never practised and wrote one of the articles for the last year internal conference at my department about my subject. I went to see it, and now I remember clearly, it was the one that I thought sucked pretty badly. There was practically no scheme or new info in it. Ah Ah I did not use that one, I did not cite it or list it in my literature sources. Big mistake @__@ I think.

nah another news is that a daughter of my parents´ friends who live here just came by and gave me a key to their internet connection. Which is why I am making this entry in the first place. Luckily for me it works only on the edge of my porch where I have to put my pc on a low wall and where I cannot sit. I´ve been on my phone only this past week and in general have no clue what is going on unless it makes it to the twitter, or occasionally to my friends´ page (and it´s not below a cut)lol.

Back to isolation. it´s raining on me and my pc.

It's really great that you're going to be able to take your exams! :D But if your opponent only gave you a B because you didn't use her article, that's ridiculous. D:

yeah well it´s not like I allowed myself to think the thesis was bad enough for them not to let me. I´ve been studying for the for 3 weeks now. But it´s still good to know.

And I of course cannot completely accuse her of that, I just failed to see what led her to the grade really. Maybe she was just too nice with her written expressions but thought otherwise. but I found the coincidence amusing and I know some people are small. But we´ll see; maybe my consultant will agree with her or even think worse of my work (who knows, we never really "consulted"). I= ll know when she finally puts her evaluation up.

I´m just in my bitchy mood since i sit with books for about 17 hours a day. forgive me.

Your consultant makes me really want to slap her. D:

Priceless, I just love people like that >.>

Good luck with learning, don't let the idiots in your school get you down. <3

Today's been a day of big and breaking news, indeed - at least for you and me.

Date fail got me laughing, though I believe it's not a laughing matter for you. I am glad they let you through, though, be it now or two weeks ago.

And one big hell yeah for your opponent.
Life always works in this sarcastic way.

GL~

lol lol i´m not letting them get to me because really i´m always done. It´s just laughable, really in that bitter way because until the final stage I think my school has been awesome on organizational front as well.

you know I love how it is obvious. even the time. 14 13 . . . oh oh I saw you tweet about your project, how´s that going?

well i do not want to be unfair to her. B is not bad, right?

They've half approved of my theme, so I am more or less allowed to do what I want.
I just don't see the reason why are they making so much fuss about these themes, even for me. What about some others, I am well aware that are weaker than I am? Are they going to approve their XYth idea sometime in December, so they can't make the animation in time?
It's ridiculous..

and lol sorry, I know it's not interesting.

Of course B is not bad, the question is wheter it is enough for you?

I'm glad to hear that your thesis was accepted!!! heart1 How does your thesis process work? Do you have to defend it before a committee or is it just graded and that's it? Is there anything else you have or get to do with it?

I hand it in, then both my consultant and my opponent write an evaluation and propose a grade, then there is an oral defence with 3 people present who vote on the final grade. I think that´s about it. there are two hard copies of it and one used to go to the library but now everything is online, anyone who wants to can read my thesis and both evaluations (once they are out, currently I only have the one from the opponent), all you basically need to do is google me, so I will get both of the hard copies back returned to me.

and well then I have finals ;D

I´m glad I at least know something now.
