If there are moments when I have nothing to say, THIS IS THE MOMENT.
For whatever valid reason, I'm about the only person in the local class who got my supervisor of my choice changed to one of my dear ole prof's choice. I'm sure the reason is valid, after all, we just completed one entire chapter on validity last semester!
Perhaps he felt that too many people opted for social psych. It's definately less brain-wrecking than what I have now which has to do with animals.
I have a mini-zoo at home, which he doesn't know about - so perhaps it's not such a bad idea that I got bumped to a supervisor who does research in this field. It's just that it's really time consuming when I could just do my social psych off-the-cuff.
Because this is a huge deal in postgrad - it's almost critical that we get it correct. Our academic life hangs on this which brings me to my next question for myself - why did I not decide to kiv this semester to next year, when I will obviously have more time (so my calendar says so) - but as with all things, why postpone doing something tomorrow when we can do it today?
So, against my better judgement and messy situation - I opted to continue as per normal.
I'm not the only one who wanted to kiv at least one module - but I think it's best we take it in our stride and move along.
After all, I'm the one who preaches keeping the diary full so that the days become shorter and more productive.
And although my diary for next semester looks empty, it's only because we are at least 6mths away from any week getting filled with appts.
So Reseach Proposal, here I come - 4 hours ago, I still had no idea what to do with this field of study - now, I am beginning to see a shadow, which means, there is light somewhere.
Forget about kivs, just get down to it; it's always an agony when at the start line - but once you take off, it's just seconds before you hit the finish line.
