Misc. Dissertation-ing

There's not a lot to say about most of July (and quite a bit of August as well) as I was so focused on doing my dissertation. For the first part, while I was doing research, most of my day was spent outside Starbucks, enjoying what I would latter find out was the sum total of Scotland's very brief summer. 


Getting tanned.


After I finished reading the 50 articles that made up my initial research, and also were all the articles I printed out (in the end, I read about 72 articles – my references made up a LOT of pages at the end of my dissertation), I started going into school every day to write.


Writing itself didn't take me that long, so I got to spend about three weeks editing and practicing photoshop as well.


I also went to the movies with Jordan and Maya like three fridays in a row, which was pretty awesome. The one night we went to Nando's beforehand for dinner, which was actually my first time at Nando's, a fact everyone seemed to find very surprising (they're a thing here).


Also, this is a terrible photograph, but that shinning ball of light above the buildings? Not a street lamp. Thats the moon. It was HUGE that night.

  1. All that work on your dissertation will be worth it, I know. When will you hear about it?
