wi-fi bandit
So, I come to Starbucks ever so often when I really need to get work done. It is like my psychological WarCabinet room, where my impulses go underground and shit gets done. Needless to say, that with my rationale due tomorrow, I've been here the last two days. Also contributing to this is that I refuse to go to the same coffee shop twice in a day. Don't ask why. In any case, I'm not getting much done because I realized that I could steal wi-fi from Cafe Express just half way down the block. Granted the signal is very spotty but I feel so dirty doing it. The good kind of dirty that is!

don't even stress about the rationale - i assume for your written exams. you pick all the books - so pick only ones that you know and are comfortable with.
And no more than 30 en toto. In the long run, the ideas themselves will change infinitely after the exams are over, so it's nothing to feel lashed to over. Further, whatever your committee suggests you do - just do it, so you'll get through it with a certain goal that they have in mind.
By the time you get to your diss proposal, you won't even remember why the writtens even mattered.
Personally, I have never even seen my exams since I turned them in. My ideas changed so much during the exam itself, that the whole purpose for me was realizing what i DIDN'T want to write on.
So, just take it easy - breathe in for a four count, and out for a four count. Round it off and have a drink.
Thanks for the advice, Kittenry! Right now I'm fighting with Endnote. It really is a curse and a blessing all wrapped up into one somewhat easy and somewhat difficult to use package.
