Thesis Draft Completed & Printed!
[On location in Walker Building]
Ugh. It's been a long time since I've been in Walker Building at 2am, and I hope that this won't happen again for a very long time. Or ever.
I spent my Memorial Day basically inside Walker Building all day long, working on finishing my thesis. Today was pretty productive, as I finished my results and conclusions chapters, in addition to writing the abstract, creating the table of contents, etc. I took a break to play some softball in an intra-squad scrimmage for church for a couple hours, but then came back to Walker. I can't get enough of this place! Anyway, I just finished printing out four copies of the draft of my thesis, three for my committee, and one for myself. The total length? 140 pages! For a Master's thesis! Mind you, this is including the signature pages, table of contents, appendix (which is 64 pages by itself) and everything, but still! I guess I'm just adding to the reputation of ridiculously long theses by grad students doing anything closely related with NWP (numerical weather prediction).
Well, I've had enough of Walker Building. Time to go home and grab some shuteye before comin back to this lovely place to start crafting my power point presentation for my defense. Oh yeah, and hand my thesis to Joel, Sue & Dr Wyngaard, so they can have their two weeks to review it before my June 11th defense. At any rate, the hardest part's over, in my opinion, woohoo!
Sometime this week I'll post a blog entry with some pictures from the last week-plus, including BASF 3. Even though I still have tons to do, I think I might be getting my life back soon!

Could you email me a copy of it? I've been having trouble sleeping lately and for some reason I think you have the cure.
