Stress?
I don't know. I might be stressed out. Less than 2 weeks to go until this thesis needs to be returned. And they still want me to calculate more results. Otherwise it would only be missing abstracts and an introduction. I started the abstracts today. One in Finnish and one in English. I haven't written anything in Finnish for ages. It's sort of difficult. I'll need to have someone read it for me I suppose. And yeah, it's 17.56 and I'm still at work. I'm getting a ride home from a friend, so I'll not be stuck here all night. Oh, and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for this distributors sale in snowboarding equipment we are going to after work... so I really wouldn't normally be working this late although I am beginning to feel the stress. Or my face is... feeling like a teenager because of some red spots on my face. Oh, and I forgot to go to coffee break today. I couldn't believe it. Never happened before!!! Weird.
I should probably get back to the abstracts. I hope I find something at the snowboard place. Otherwise I will have missed funk class in vain. I was really sad about that. :(
Have a nice day everyone! (If anyone reads this...)

heeyyyy :)
Got most of my panic work done here at work so I've got a little bit of time to read blogs again :)
Sounds like you've kept yourself busy, which is very good. I found myself a good 'carrot on a stick' to keep myself motivated with my thesis a few years back. I kept a procentage counter on it's progress. Meaning I approximated how much was done and how much was still left to do and sort of organized things that way and saw my progress daily. I did this just becouse of that, progress was very difficult to see on an unfinished thesis. I'd keep working at it for days and no real progress, only a couple more pages and a couple corrections to earlier material - it was hard to see how worthwhile it is to work at it at home.
Ok, I might not be making very much sense here.. but anyway, just thought to blabber on about the subject ;) as usual...
so when are you coming for a visit? still got some mexican beer in the fridge from your last visit.. ;) heheeh...
I think almost having your thesis done is a good time as any to experience some stress.
I wish when I start really writing I'll have some way to get rid of all of it, like you have the gym. I guess I can also play the dancing game. (Haven't had time to properly try it out here yet with the German classes and other stuff taking all my time and energy.)
So good luck (or another greeting more suitable though I can't think of one) with the writing.
