Prelim Orals
It's Saturday night and I've spent the entire night avoiding what I need to be doing--working on my special topics paper to prepare for my oral prelims. I'm still in shock that I scheduled my orals. After all, it's not because I'm feeling fully ready that I scheduled them. I scheduled my orals because my advisor from Portland State, who is on my committee, will be in town that day (June 3rd), and it seemed like a good idea to have my orals while she'll be in town. I know I could do a conference call, but it'll be better to have her there.
In many ways, I really feel ready to keep this train moving on. After the Comparative and International Education Society conference at Stanford, I really feel ready to move on to a faculty position somewhere. I just need to get done. And, orals is the next step so I'm on my way.
Now I just need to get working on that paper. It's just so much more fun to blog instead....
