I have a crap introduction. I really hate my thesis and just want to get rid of it (think 'ring of power and Frodo Baggins on the side of Mount Doom'). Less than 3 weeks and lots of corrections to work on, but no motivation or interest. I can't remember anything about the papers I've cited, even though I've read them so many times I should be able to quote the best parts of each one in my sleep... and I feel like a complete fraud. It's been such a long time since I did any regular exercise, but all I want to do is eat chocolate and stare out of the window.
I keep hearing about PhD graduates who immediately join the priesthood after completing their theses, and I can totally empathise, but that would involve more study and right now, it's the last thing I need.
Perhaps when all this is over, and I'm pumping iron in the gym, I'll look back with fondness on my student days... or shudder and thank the merciful Lord that it's all over as I return to my parish duties.
stick with it Chantel!
