Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Movie Finale 1: Nearing the Finish Line
Another week, another set of good times! And another low-down, of course 😀 WATCHAN: Berserk 18: Excellent episode, at least by Berserk TV standards. None of the scene cuts seemed to be that poorly conceived, some nice characterization, and Guts looked pretty badass when he started cutting up those trolls. Not the best stuff I’ve […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 36 (Season 2 Last Episode): What I Learned from my Second Draft
Whew! As promised, my friends, I have a very meaty entry for you today! I’ve done a big writeup on why my 2nd draft of my dissertation took so long, and what I learned from it. Before I get to that, though, here’s what I’ve been doing for fun this week: I’ve been eating out […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 35 (Season 2 second-to-last-episode): At long last, victory!
Hoooooo boy. It took a while, longer than I hoped, but it’s finally happened. On Monday, February 13, 2017, I handed in the second draft of my dissertation. My feelings about it? Honestly, I’m kinda apathetic…as surprising as it may seem, I don’t feel as accomplished as I did when I turned in my first […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 34 (Season 2): Victory approaches!
Another short entry for you, today, my friends, but a good one: I was waiting for a while for a response from my profs, but my advisor just got back to me! He said what I had sounded good, so I should send it over. I’m gonna go over my draft quickly and make sure […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 33 (Season 2): Progress and Frustration
Well, as the day counts down to the last of my extension, I’ve got good news and bad news. First the good: I’m almost done with the changes I’ve made. The bad, though…well, as you’ve probably gathered, I made some pretty significant changes to organization, and while I think my work is looking much better, […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 32 (Season 2): Thank God for extensions!
Still busy but some good news: I asked my profs and they said I could have a little extension, so the new date is Feb. 3. I needed it..for reasons I’ll get into next week, for now, I’m mad busy! Back to the grind…
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 31 (Season 2): Grinding My Gears
Ugh. Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh. Still haven’t finished up chapter 1. Partially, this is motivation: It’s gotten so much warmer that I’ve been spending more time outside eating and enjoying myself. But partially it’s because the act of reorganizing the chapter seems to be like a “one step forward, two steps back” sort of […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 30 (Season 2): Still stalled
Ugh. Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh. Still haven’t finished up chapter 1. Partially, this is motivation: It’s gotten so much warmer that I’ve been spending more time outside eating and enjoying myself. But partially it’s because the act of reorganizing the chapter seems to be like a “one step forward, two steps back” sort of […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 29 (Season 2): Pedal to the metal
Can’t say much this week, my friends, I am *very* busy. Haven’t been doing much but thinking about my dissertation…my prof got back to me and said he recommended subheadings for every chapter, so I’ve been thinking about how to do those. I think my brainstorming may be paying off…I should be finished with Chapter […]
Gunlord’s Dissertation Saga, Episode 28 (Season 2): Editor’s block?
First, I’ll cut right to the chase and tell y’all what you’ve been waiting for: How did my holidays go? Honestly, not much happened. My friend Starseeker got me the new Age of Empires expansion on Steam, but that was pretty much it. My mom went on a trip, so she just left me […]
