I am beyond relieved, my thesis is DONE! It has been officially turned in (hard copy) for binding and I cannot edit it any more. I think you can only look at the same document before you go officially crazy so it’s a good thing that they have a deadline. Otherwise I might still be making minor changes. I am excited and happy with the work that I turned in though. I know there is more work that I could have done on it, but it is only a thesis, not a dissertation. This way, if I ever want to get into it further, there is always more for me to do and look at.
Now I have to begin preparing for Elkin Isaac where I present. I have to create a presentation, slide show usually, to present in front of anyone who wants to attend. I am excited yet nervous about it. I think it will go well, the Patriot Act is something that I am passionately against and feel like, after doing my research, I can now defend it with more than personal emotions.
