Nothing much to update today cos most of my day working on my dissertation. I've edited the Introduction quite a lot and the Conclusion..edited the Lit Review a little too...I can't believe that I'm trying to lengthen my dissertation! But as Sil pointed out, I'm assuming my reader has prior experience in the subject matter..so she and El were suggesting that I explain more.
Oh, my sup replied me saying sometimes it may not be a good idea to submit too early (cos I asked her if she meant that it's good for submission). Diplomatic ans. As for printing and binding, my lecturer who's not on leave replied v fast and said the type of binding doesn't matter as long as it's strong and robust and need not do posh binding (hard binding). So I'll probably go for the one S used! Cheap and have free delivery too..and only 2 days!
Anyway heard that one of my classmates had difficulties getting subjects back home and she didn't even contact her sup till now?!?! Goodness..not sure what she's intending to do! O whatsapped and said his should be ready for submission...good for him!
I don't know if I mentioned that I was influenced to do calculations to see if I can get MSc with merit or distinction or pass. Then I calculated..my weight average for taught modules are already 69.5. The criteria for distinction is weighted average of at least 65 marks in taught modules, weighted mean mark of at least 65 for dissertation and weighted mean mark of at least 70 calculated across all modules. At first I thought maybe I'll aim for merit since I can't get mean mark of 70 for all modules anyway..then mum reminded me there might be moderation. So anyway, I'll need at least 55 marks for dissertation for merit and 71 for distinction overall. Will try my best!! But then pass also ok la...hahha..I guess since my sup said dissertation ok then shld be passable??
Called my ah ma today...and also did my laundry (did twice cos had my dark coloured jeans) and had vacuumed my room yday. L has reorganised her kitchen stuff and didn't tell me where she shifted the cups but I managed to find them la. Anyway I thought I could get my luggage myself but it was locked back already. I probably will ask her for it again. I also won't have time to pack these few days till I finalise my dissertation.
Drank and ate ginseng today..it was from the soup. Tonight having the leftover soup also..prob will keep the ginseng to drink tmr. I thought C will be cooking today cos he soaked the black eyed peas..but nothing is happening..tmr I'll probably cook some pasta or spaghetti to go with my leftover roast pork..cos Wed meeting S for dinner so no need to cook..Fri too. Aiming to be free to go out on Wed to get some eggs.
Oh ya, my colleague/friend in SG who did her MSc last yr told me she flew out from London last yr..and took coach to Heathrow airport!! WOW lor..haha..I still haven't heard any news from HR..so shall see how!
