Well i finally finished my thesis, and managed to get it bound and handed in both electronically and in hard form yesterday. Within an hour my life felt hollow and empty. No more getting up to write more or check references, no more looking at SPSS printout with a half confused look, no more worrying. It is afterall too late now to worry. I just have to wait and see how i do, although I am pretty sure that a pass is definitely on the cards . I should find out by march whether I have a few new letters to put after my name!
I have been unableto bring myself to read the bound copy of my thesis, although it looks good, although thinner than many other thesis I have read. I guess either brevity, cheap paper or both may have contributed to that. If you are interested in sport psychology i will no doubt put a edited highlights of my research on my coaching blog, however as a teaser I offer you the title.
“The Interactive Effect of pre-imagery Activation States and Individual Differences on the Efficacy of Imagery on Bouldering Tasks”
I am already being asked if i am going to do a Phd by my friends, or what I am going to do next. Well I am already on it. i have 195 page PDF of my book to edit. So taking my time to look through that and planning to get out climbing at some point. Talking of which i must go and try and find someone to hit the slate with this afternoon, as it looks liek the rain is stopping and we might get a 2 hour window for climbing?
