Thesis Defence Proposal

Yes our third topic defence proposal got APPROVED!!! I think we are becoming experts on topic defence proposals. The panel, which composed of the previous panel, ask many questions on how the final experiments should be and we arrived at a conclusion. The time study made by my thesis mate really helped alot in explaining what and how we are going to do the thesis.

The fabricator is already asking for money to start the fabrication of the prototype. We need to come up with the money ASAP so that we can make it in time for the Aug 10 reliability run. I hope the drawing I made will be enough. My groupmates have not seen it yet and we need to present it already to the fabricator on Monday. hay...

The rel run, final thesis defence and my special class on programming is all that are on my mind right now and I should be starting on my special class cause it is almost the midterms.

A Day Off...

Wow! I finally got a semi-day off from our thesis. I said semi because I still have to draw the frame of our prototype in CAD and it will be tiring to also do it. I have the house to myself today because my sister started her classes last monday. Defence proposal is on Friday already. This thesis has already been changed and it is our third thesis. Hope the proposal goes well. This will be our last shot at getting our much awaited graduation.

Our first topic was about arranging buttons. We changed it to cutting card boards because our thesis adviser left us and have to find a better thesis adviser. That topic about the buttons also is too hard for us to design. The topic about cutting card boards is alot easier than the first but it is too expensive to make. The machine shop owner told us that the cutters that we have to use will be big and expensive.

Somehow we were stuck with it. Our thesis mate who has a business with lubricants has been hearing her father talking about a new business and wants to let us make a machine for him. We pondered about it but we thought that it is already late and we do not have the time to start another thesis.

Then when my thesis mate went back to her province, the calling to really change our thesis to the one her dad wants was there. We talked about it and decided to change it. So these are the reasons why I am so tired these past weeks going double time/triple time for our thesis. We are somewhat 10% complete on the prototype. We just need to first propose this thesis and have it approved on friday; test the first part of the prototype tomorrow and where to at a good pace to finish it. Wish us luck!!!

Tiring weeks

My body now aches from the different errands I have been doing since last week. I went to my old highschool which is also my sister's highschool to enroll with her and buy her books that are still lacking last week twice only to find out that there are no offices those in those two days that I went there. On top of that I have to go to my university to attend the countless meetings that I have to go to to finish the thesis. This week I already went twice to the machine shop where our prototype is being made. It's a little far from where I live and it took me more time to go there than the time I stayed there. I also went back to my old highschool to help my sister enroll. It's a good thing there are offices that they or I would have gone MAD. hay..............
