Apr. 20th, 2005 12:41 amI've created a monster.
I'm up to 30 pages. I still haven't finished explaining the mechanism, I haven't said a word about what I actually did, I don't have any of my graphs, there's no conclusion, and I still haven't done the bibliography or the appendices, which my advisor insisted must include a photo of every single part of the clock. I'm only doing a one-semester project here - it's not even really a thesis - and it's already looking like it's going to be at least 50 pages at this rate. Holy mackeral. It just doesn't end.
And of course everything takes you longer than you expect it to.
And to top it all of, I have running through my head a half remembered song by Bjork from Dancer in the Dark, which I had to watch for class, and have decided is the single most depressing movie I've seen in two or three years, at least. And I really, really don't like Bjork. I think it's that awful song she sang at the Oscars while wearing the infamous swan dress.
