From the final draft of the dissertation prospectus, submitted last Monday:
Strange to see the last year of my life distilled that way. Over 100+ pages of writing all told, cut down into a 25 page final draft. Words words and more words, and so little to show for it.
I’m currently in the last throes of writing out the two essays making up the written portion of the exam; turning them into my committee on Tuesday. The following Monday, I’ll have my oral examination and that should do it. Something to be thankful for, indeed.
