10:30 am - I worked around 6 hours yesterday, including the discussion with my friend. so, I re-arranged the entire chapter once more, add some parts, eliminate some others. now I want to give it a final read before sending it to my adviser which has put 10-12 papers on my desk during week end :( I have a meeting at 3 pm, they I will be off till tomorrow :D I should start studying plus writing my proposal. only 2 more months

3:20 pm - I just had my meeting. I worked on my chapter,and gave it to him, he took a look and said it seemed good. next meeting is 9 of sep, I want to finish my proposal till that time and discuss it with him, during the meeting he mentioned something about the problem and tools that I am using which were new to me, I got a bit nervous as he mentioned they may ask such things in my proposal defense, it is better I add some notes about it. I should work very hard in coming week to have a well developed proposal, otherwise I should say goodbye :)
