I do have a life; it just mostly consists of textbooks

Today is the birthday of Queen Elizabeth I. (She was born in 1533, in case you were wondering.) This has nothing to do with the rest of this post, but I thought it was worth noting

Wow your semester sounds really exciting! I have been so wistful for the college life since my graduation. I have to admit, that despite the warnings I have given to various people about how much work goes into a thesis there, it was still the most exciting and personally rewarding thing I ever did. Especially if you have a good Thesis Adviser who encourages you to challenge commonly held conceptions and perceive new connections that are wholly original. The difference between writing a normal term paper that is mostly a rehashing of the information you have been given with a few original arguments, and the composition of a completely original hypothesis is enough to take your breath away. So Godspeed to you on your senior year! I'd be interested to hear about what lines of thinking your thesis takes you down. :)

Your thesis is only twenty-five pages???? My minimum is forty pages!!! Someone last year wrote eighty pages---very unwise.
