Just back from washing my mouse ball. Yup, it was sticky. I am now offically taking a ten-minute break from my thesis, even though Bella is gone for the rest of the day and night and I should be treating every moment alone as golden thesis time… I need my breaks. In fact, while working on my thesis, I keep an scrap piece of paper on hand (a once-used envelope actually) and write down all the things I WISH I were doing instead of working on my thesis.<\/p>\n
My summer thesis schedule:<\/p>\n
Wake up at 5 am. Go for a run.<\/p>\n
Start working by 6 am, in order to get three hours in before she wakes up.<\/p>\n
Get three more hours in during the course of the day, and unpack my new house during my breaks.<\/p>\n
For some reason, it seems to be taking me until 8 or 9 at night to get the six hours in… sigh. Actually I only started yesterday, and I did get in five hours. Not bad for a first day’s work. I’m at three hours right now and it’s 5:30 pm. Still, I should get a full day’s work in.<\/p>\n
I also got several full days in last week (okay, just two – but very productive days). One day was sitting in a side cubicle at my boyfriend’s library all day while he worked. That was pretty good. I spent another day at University of California, Irvine’s library. That is a great library – makes me want to go to school there, even though my sister says that going for a doctorate wouldn’t be such a good idea for a procrastinator like me.
