I just came home form a meeting with my thesis adviser where I yet again, switched gears with my thesis. She actually pointed to a piece of paper on her board that had (one of) my original ideas pinned to it, and I think wanted to know if she could throw it in the garbage. I said sure thing; any idea that hadn't been mentioned in 6 months was as good as dead as far as I was concerned.
When I got home I turned on the radio and was starting to fry onions in preparation for Jen and I's "Get your drink on, it's Valentines" - dinner, when I heard this piece on the radio.
It's Awesome.
A contest for Phds and masters students to interpret their dissertations through dance. Organized by Science Magazine. Yeah, I know, and there's video!
I am going to have to continue preparing for dinner, but I hope to sit down with this later tonight and get a real taste for the rhythm of the doctorate.
As far as I can see with my Masters it's been a bit like Paula Abduls."You take two steps forward I take one step back."
Oh in case your interested in applying: 2009 is just around the corner folks Alison you know I am talking to you.
