Pretty sure I am doomed......
So easter has passed and it has actually become one of my fav holidays. You get lots of days off and most people stay in town so you get to see people, unlike Xmas where everyone seems to bail and I never get to see anyone (because I am stuck home keeping my recently separated brother company, which is cool because he is my most favourite person in the world, but it is also uncool).
I went and stayed with my parentals over easter which was awe. My Grandmother was in town from Adelaide and I haven't had much to do with her over the years, so it was great getting to know her a little. We spent some time on Ancestry.com looking into the family tree which is always a good thing... anyway.... the parentals sat me down and decided that they wanted to help me with my lack of motivation because I am so ready to give up on the PhD, so they said to me (which if you knew them you would know that it is so unlike my parents) that they would buy me a Canon 5D Mark III with the 50mm 1.4 lens that I have fallen in love with, when I submit my thesis.
Sooooooooo, you would think that this is the appropriate metaphorical kick up the butt that I need, and it was for a few days, I was stoked, I was determined, but yeah after spending today in the front of the computer, I am no longer either of these. I don't think I can do this and if I don't think I can do this with a Canon 5D Mark III waiting for me at the end, I am pretty sure that I can't do it :(
