I haven’t even started on my thesis yet and I’m already stressing out. I should call it dissertation, it sounds a lot more fancy (thanks Shini for learning me a new word! :p).
I have finalized my new subject and research plan today and I’m going to hand it in this weekend. Hopefully they approve it right away, because I really don’t have time to change anything. I have to spend more than 300 hours on literature research and writing the dissertation and it has to be finished within 2 months. That’s approx 60 days. That’s 5 hours a day. That’s 35 hours a week. On top of my 32 hours work a week it means no sleep for the rest of the year, that’s for sure.
It has been a while so here it is again
I’m glad I got that off my chest.
This Month
This month last year I…
…lost my mouth full of wire.
This month two years ago I…
…went para sailing in Rhodes, Greece
This month three years ago…
…Murphy did this to our hallway
This month four years ago…
…I didn’t take any pictures at all. But my hair was this dark and I was already wearing the pink ribbon band that I’m still wearing today.

This month five years ago…
…we gave our second party with the Wisentfamily: Date night!
…I shared a house with these crazy people
Jeez. I can’t believe that was FIVE YEARS ago. I’m getting old! 
The Shrinking Bone
At 12:35pm I gave Murphy a bone.
A BIG BONE
At 12:55PM it looked like this
At 13PM it was all gone. 25 minutes is all it took
1 minute later he was begging for another one.
Making money out of nothing
I bought my first ever lottery tickets last week. And I won €47 euros! Which means I made a profit of €17. WOOHOO!!
Ok, maybe it’s not much. But I expected to win nothing (I don’t really believe in lottery stuff) so I actually like the outcome a lot 
.
I should really be studying right now. I have an ‘organization-ethics’ test tomorrow. It’s actually quite interesting so I better get back to it.
Silence
I. Have. Nothing. To. Talk. About.
Which makes me think of my favorite quote.
“if you don’t understand my silence, you can’t understand my words”
