Hey everyone. I just need a little support. I defend my Masters Thesis tomorrow and am scared out of my mind. It wouldn't be bad but I already got an email from one of my committee members saying he is going to give me flak for a couple things. :banghead

Not to mention DF's health took a turn for the worse last night, so just when you think it can't get worse....

Any good vibes you ladies could spare would be greatly appreciated.

good luck, i'll be there shortly. btw what's it on

It is on the silent treatment in marital relationships.

:goodvibes:)

ummm crap, how do you have to defend it? like why is it a good topic for your masters thesis?

I had to defend the first 3 chapters of it last semester and then I had to complete the study over Christmas and now it is the end. I have to go in and defend everything I did and explain why I did it and how it will help others. It was good for me because I am in Speech Communication so anything in the realm worked. I am really into interpersonal and family communication.

well if he attacks your methodology explain that you researched it in this capacity/angle because that is where your interest lies and that the research was most beneficial from that angle. if they attack your reasonings for doing it or why it's beneficial get a little personal.

i hope that helps i've never had to do this

Good luck!!! And I hope your DF will feel better again soon. :hugs

It's great that you were warned about possible weak spots so that you can prepare a response. Best of luck with the viva. :goodvibes

OOps See I knew you would be fine ;)

Thanks ladies soo much! I passed. I have some editing and stuff but I will graduate none the less and at this point that is all that matters. I have already been accepted into my Ph.D. program, so I kind of have this attitude of "I don't care anymore, just let it be over."

But I really, really appreciate all of your support! Have a wonderful day!

:woohoo Congrats!
