Do you have to study a full load? Or can you just take one course and maybe start working on the paper while biding your time? If you take only one course would that save you some €€?
Either way I hope you just find a Professor to work with, but if you can’t I hope it’s not an expensive semester you really shouldn’t have to take.
@LandirtHome Thank you, yes, I have already done something similar. My old professor said something like “I will leave, it’s not my problem who will look after your thesis anymore” maybe it’s better that he’s not doing it anymore
@Yacob I still have to do two seminars next semester, I wanted to do them together with the master thesis. If I will not find a professor I will only do the two seminars next semester and than in winter only the thesis feels kinda like time wasting. But I have a 20 hour job, at least that gives me the feeling of doing something and not wasting my time. And I’m not on a private university, so it’s not expensive to study, only about 600€ per year- it’s annoying, but I could handle that.
It’s just annoying because I’m already so old and I’m already studying for so long because all these years I could only study half the time as most students because I had to work next to university. And there were other difficulties, like I changed the topic of my studies some years ago, some personal problems which caused that it took me longer. And now I was finally seeing an end and now this… it’s just very frustrating
I forgot that attending a university isn’t a financially crippling endeavour in other parts of the world.
Oh yes! All of us at HMF are always talking behind your back about what an ancient babushka you are . You know how I know I’m getting old? I know because it makes me laugh when people your age say they are getting old.
Haha well, as a woman of 34, single, no children and no finished education (I have a bachelor degree, but to become a teacher I need a master degree too) I often feel kinda old not that I want to change something about the first two things but finishing education would at least let me feel a bit more “adult”. At least that’s what I’m hoping
School has been at its worst with exams and lengthy tasks and combining that with classes I take, I’ve had 9 exams in 3 days. 8 hours minimum studying a day. Not sure how I’m yet alive. Did a pretty good job with it though, all were above 80 with a few +90s as well.
My co-worker and I have worked on this Whoville backdrop for two weeks now, we are about done. We didn’t have much time as the event it’s needed for is December 3, but we are very proud with what we got accomplished.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone living in the United States. I have a long list things to be thankful for; everyone here at HMF is certainly on that list.
