Jumpin' jack flash, it's a gas gas gas!
Mar. 2nd, 2009 08:08 pmJust got a flash of inspiration!
Back in September I had reported on the Voluntary System of Accountability that my university had joined. Methinks this might be a good topic to do my paper on it. It's something I'm actually interested in (much more so than the other topics I was thinking of or that my professor suggested to me) and it looks like there's plenty of data to dig through.
*wipes off forehead*
Just got an email from the professor of the MBA class that starts in two weeks and she's already got a big list of stuff to do before class starts.
Seems like it's about time I really buckle down and prioritize this stuff.
Spring break is next week. My goal will be to have a rough draft of my capstone paper (sans final results) done by March 16th, the Monday after spring break. That way I can send it to my advisor for feedback and will hopefully get that back before the end of the month, when I can finish it and send it to the committee for review (they want a few weeks to review it). My goal (I should probably reserve the room soon!) is to have the defense the second to last week of April.
So, get that big chunk of work out of the way that week. Wednesday of next week, however, I will reserve for creating my presentations for the two classes I have to teach for the MGMT class. I need to cover two different articles he has supplied. Luckily we are covering three articles this Wednesday, so I'll be able to refresh my mind on what all he is expecting me to do to cover them.
Sunday the 8th I will go in to the Write Place to have another set of eyes to look at my capstone paper.
To make sure I have time for all of the stuff I need to do just to prepare for the first class of my MBA course, I will work on that this Thursday evening and finish it up on Friday evening.
I think I will use Monday evenings in the next month and a half to do my reading and notes for the MGMT class and use Thursday and Friday evenings to do my reading, notes, and group work for the MBA class. Sundays will be my term paper days, I think. It all depends on my group members' availability, as well.
*deep breath*
FINALLY. The whole idea for my term paper was the hardest thing for me to accomplish. Once I know what I'm working on, I can usually get it done. Hopefully my professor will approve the idea so that I can get to work on it.
But the capstone paper is the main priority for next week as my timeline is affected significantly by my professor and committee members, so the sooner I can get my shit done, the sooner I can hand it off to them.
It's going to be a very very busy month. Let's hope I can keep up my drive and ambition. The end is so near, I am fighting off my own version of "senior-itis".
