foolfillment: the blog

My last lecture was today, afterwards I went and had my dissertation printed and bound (nevermind that somehow I managed to get the wrong file printed and will have to go back and get it done again…), on Friday I’ll hand it in and then no doubt go to The Primary for a quick celebratory sherbet with more than a couple of others in my year.

A couple of weeks after that I have a wee test - I love exams on my course, most of the work is done throughout the year so when it comes to an exam they usually aren’t anything to worry about. They can usually be treated as a nice little trip to the Hunter Halls where you can marvel at the intricate stonework for an hour or so.

A couple of weeks after that the GTCS will post out a letter saying where I will be teaching next year, and I also have an oral exam and a presentation to give to the class - both on my dissertation.

First of all though I’m going spend tomorrow installing Feisty Fawn on an ageing desktop computer. (Wish me luck Robert!)

Well, that’s the first draft completed, pretty much anyway. I’ll make it clear now - I’m not going to be going for a life in research, it’s quite clearly not something I’ve got a talent for!

With a limit of 10 000 words I’m now sitting at about 11 500, so I’ve got a fair bit to cut out. I’m going to take a couple of days away from it now before I redraft it.

Lots of other little things to be playing with in the mean time.
