Nearly

The big presentation that I had been working on happened last evening. Now that that is over, I just realized a big lesson learned from the whole experience. I had a moment during the last eighteen months where coming down to the end, I was very, very frustrated by how I felt two of my lecturers treated my project. I felt like they didn't care one bit about it. I was actually shocked that I felt as apathetic as that, and knew that I had to pull back and take stock of my reaction. What I discovered was a need for attention. A need to be heard and validated. I was not expecting that I would need anyone to do so. My project has never needed anyone's stamp. What was going on? A friend set me so straight, telling me to get over the pity party and prevail, and that did it. Thank you F.E. Then suddenly these same lecturers started noticing and talking up my projec leading me to wonder whether they were having me on,their enthusiasm suddenly seemed too dramatic. That was helpful too, because amidst all of that,one lecturer said something that stuck, and stuck well. At the end of the day, own your project be passionate about it. That is all. Sell the he'll out of what you believe in. Now that it is over, I have to complete my thesis, and I now hove the time to really make it a beauty. I shall rest tonight and start to handle it properly from tomorrow. Writing a bit here and there, getting the theory parts together, as the deadline looms very near as well. But now I feel a relief from what I am doing. Thank goodness.
