Project: Weekend summary

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

This weekend I’ve gathered and reviewed my research papers.  It’s good:  I’ve got the data, some outstanding points of debate and enough to draw my conclusions.  I’ve sifted out a fair amount of stuff which isn’t relevant too.  I need to concentrate on the models, and the maths gets complex there, which is a concern.

So, I can do a ‘trial’ abstract, I can draw together enough for an introduction, and I’ve got a content plan sketched out for the contents list.  I’m ready to write.  Two thousand words is a lot to get done in a short time, and I may not meet that much by the deadline, but I should be most of the way there.

Busy week, it will be, to get it done by then :)

This weekend

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

Just been in the office, printing more papers.

This weekend, I need to review the papers, information and ideas I’ve collected, and put together at least 80% of TMA03. Last year, this wasn’t as bad as it first looked:  once I had the structure sorted and material together, everything just flowed from there.

Hours so far: 2 (and it’s only noon :) )
