and... Monday finally came.. which I started the day with my normal routine (blog or downloading stuffs) besides bathing and eating breakfast... yesterday I received an email reply from my supervisor, giving comments on the final draft (and the final title of the project) of the last portion of the report. That is why I struggled to make all the corrections (and trying to include anymore interesting facts to be stuffed into this 60++ report) by this afternoon.. I will be having perhaps my last meeting with the professor today, provided that he is happy about it.
I showed him the 90% completed of the draft, in place and in perfect order just to make him see the overall lay out. This was then followed by a few "intelligent" questions which I just wanted to make sure that I am on the right track. Yada yada yada... da di du.. bla bla bla.. (why lah everytime I want to record the meeting, always there's some problem with my MP3 recorder).. He's got very good vocabulary on technical English.. and yes, English I am using is lousy.. I need to catch up with his standard, which is why I make an effort to record and memorise his words so that I can put it in the report.. it will be "super" as what he use to say.
Finally, towards the end of the meeting, I really don't know how to ask him. .. I wanted him to give me a hint on how well did I do. It really is embrassing to ask such question , "can I get an A for this"? Rephrasing it, I just asked whether it meets his expectation. I should say that his reply gave me such a relief, its felt like a burden lifted from my shoulder when I know that he is happy for what I have done. Everything seemed to be in order and it does meets his expectation 9can't help smiling).. ehehehehe.. there, I hope the results will prove to be the same too (hope he is being truthful too). I do hope to pass, but a distinction will be a bonus (which I don't think so). I am just doing my best, that's all that matters.
I have only 3 more days to make more amendments, printing and binding.
