m&m 1st draft out

aft days of typin, addin & editin, finally draft out my material & method section for my thesis. my thesis supposely to b 6k words, yet my m&m itself took up almost 5.5k of d word limit le. so i'm left w 500 words for intro, results, discussion & finally conclusion? tt's IMPOSSIBLE... tml shall print den go c prof & tell him of d word limit & to c wat i no need include cos nw i include all & wat i did durin attachment too. oso need to cfm w him d title & oso d objectives of d project so tt i can do paper research for my intro. it's totally blank right nw. i guess only aft i get my aims right, den i can figure out hw to do intro den hw to arrange d results n den discuss & finally conclude. so dependin on my progress of d intro. if it took too long, den i gotta rush for d other sections which hopefully not ba.

anw, oso need check w prof when i shall stop include data into d report or rather when can stop work but den, if minimal work, i oso don mind cos better than be at home all day right? lib not such a gd place cos i think ppl choppin place for exam study soon ba. so d lab still a gd place to b if thr r minimal work so i can oso do my thesis. it's really finally d last last lap.

3 days of excitments

had a great 3 relaxin days n yet nw i gotta b back to face d reality.

took a break fr d lab n went for a short getaway. 1st day relaxin w swimmin n dinner while 2nd day, had a 30 min foot reflexology, a game of bowlin n spa n a romantic evenin created by dear. n sadly d last day by jus lazin ard watchin movie n nappin.

anw, swimmin on 1st day, i tried to thread (or watever u say or spell), manage to do bit. had been so wantin to try learn tt. my swimmin skill is actually self pick-up. had no prof guidance. it's a much delay n slow progress but at least i'm progressin. but den i wonder if i will ever get a chance to at least try snorkering or scuba divin... it's yrs since i got tempted aft hearin fr my colleagues/friends... but of cos $$ is 1 factor tt pull me back. d other is tt i gotta do it so tt my parents wont noe. they surely won allow but hw much longer of youth can i get? cos of them, i nvr try so many things. i miss out many things though i secretly pick up cycling n d swimming but hw often can i do it? i can say i'm still at beginner lvl lor... haiz... hope i get to try n do more adventure...

s for tt foot reflexology, it's my 1st virgin attempt. i nvr tot it can b so painful at certain part whr they so call link w body organs. d kidney part really strike me hard cos like wat d person ask, i really nvr drink much water. oops... i shall try to change tt bad habit of mine. but watever it is, i still enjoy d session but i shant try when i got open wound on my foot again. last sun, went to cemetery den foot itchy n i scratch till a layer of d outer skin peel. cos it's jus a thin layer, by right it can dry up n heel quite fast. but den, cos it's at d end of my jeans openin n it kept brushing on it, it heel much slower le but it's drying. however, d foot reflexology guy kept brushing thru it w his hand n to make it worse, at times, he brush n massage thru it over a towel. can u imagine a towel w d thick cloth fiber brushin thru d open wound? gosh... den d spa also brush thru it except it was jus w hand. n nw, it's like more injured like tt. deeper wound which was red n swollen surroundin d open wound. hope it can heel faster but i not sure hw come i can tahan durin d massages... mayb overall is too relaxin le...

oh ya. y d romantic evening by dear. he bought many packets of sparkles n he draw n wrote on d sand w his name n a heart den my name. he den put d sparkles over d names n heart which he drew/wrote n he lit them up. it was such a beautiful sight despite d smoke given by d sparkles. if only d sparkles can last much longer den i can snap pic of d whole thing rather than only few sparkles here n thr. watever it is, d image shall always b kept inside our minds n d memories shall only b ours forever. if it wasn't tt windy, dear oso wanna put flower petals over d words too but d wind blew too strongly tt d petals will fly away. tt time he still say he isn't romantic. i totally nvr tot dis would happen before my eyes but dear make it happened. i loved d nite much more when i saw d star filled sky. i always love to see stars in d dark dark sky. i can walk lookin at d shimmerin, glitterin star(s) or kept starin at it when travelling in a vehicle. thr r so many diff constellations though i only noe hw to see d orion. hehe. but seein d stars is like givin me beauty n hope in d dark. so tt evenin is really unforgetable for me cos not only d dark sky had stars but even on d dark sand (cos night time), was lit by d sparkles on dear's drawings. hw i wish time could freeze then n it's hard for me to fall asleep tt night cos d wonderful images kept flashing in my mind.

fyp thesis

hmm... tt day, prof asked me to include wat i did for my attachment into my FYP thesis cos it's related to my FYP & i alrdy had doubt on d word count & true enough... i haven't even complete all d protocol fo my methology & d word count includin d headin & subheadin r almost 1.8k words.

d prob is... my whole thesis includin intro, methology (materials & methods), results, discussion & conclusion is only 6k leh. so shoudl i cont'd to include wat i did durin attachment? nw i did d methology cos it's d most easiest since it's jus typin out in words/para on wat i had done all these while but i oso didn't wanna waste my effort if i can used it to mayb read up on papers for my intro. hw??? or can i ve an appendix on wat i did durin attachment but this section was not included in d thesis criteria.

i guess i shall cont'd to draft out d methology den print out n check w prof le. if he want, den i cont'd on for all other section w my attachment stuff. if not den shall not cont'd further but it'll b like 1 big chunk of stuffs eliminated fr my thesis.

anw, i really don understand y on earth is it called thesis when d word limit is jus 6k. my poly fyp report (mind u, it's called a report) & yet it was like many times more than dis degree thesis. it's like so useless lor...
