...by my thesis committee that is. Not terribly exciting to you all, I'm sure, but I'm pretty damn excited! Two of them even said nice things, like one said he "loved it"...of course, they also said I should change a few things and that one of the statistics I cited was outdated, but it's all cool!

Now it goes off to the human subjects board and I'm good to go for research in January! Woot!

You forgot to put on a shirt the day you presented it, didn't you?

I actually wore three shirts, none of which said anything about me being a big deal or anything!

nah, not to me, writing the lit review is the most painful part. Doing actual research and analyzing the data and writing up the results is far better.

Of course, emailing the 1200 or so participants is a pain in the ***, but such is life. Someday, maybe I'll get to do a project where I have a grad assistant or something like that and I can make that person do all the ****** grunt work. Dreams...dreams...

I'm guessing something that requires her to quizpoll real people about their lives and problems.

Dating an East Coast liberal I'd go with Social Work or something similar.
