#cafe study

An afternoon to myself at Oxford🪻. Warm sunshine, a purple cascade of fragrance tumbling over a college wall, then an icy lemonade with an apple crumble tart in a bookshop 📖☕🍰!

I’m back in the café! This part of the course has been very intense, and also I’ve been working quite a bit, so I’ve been feeling very busy lately. But there’s nothing to do but power through - and it is interesting, and I like the work I do, so it is enjoyable, despite being a little stressful.

Writing my thesis with a cinnamon almond cappuccino ☕️🍂

I finally feel like I have found a specific research question for my thesis, as well as a document structure that will allow me to develop my argument cohesively.

This is a BIG deal for me, since it means that I can now start to critically sift through all my notes and pick out all the bits of information I need. This is exactly what I will be doing for the whole day today: going through notes and organizing them based on the section they should be included in. It is not necessarily a hard process but it is quite time-consuming. I do need to get it all done today tho, because I have a meeting with my thesis supervisor on Thursday and I need to share my progress with him as soon as possible, so that he gets some time to go through the material and (hopefully) provide some useful feedback in our in-person meeting.
