60 percent

It has been almost a year since may last post. I have not dropped out, I just became quite busy. But I have great news to report. And I wanted to write this blog post since November…

Last Summer I had a status review of my thesis. And a funny thing happened on the way: I had a vision, I had a moment of absolute clarity. The whole PhD was laid out in front of my eyes. Everything was in focus. The review went well and I became highly enthusiastic. However, one of the context chapters became a bit problematic, a bit too complex. Anyhow, by December 60 percent of my thesis was complete. I still stuffer from periods of self-doubt, luckily these periods tend not to be very long. I still can’t imagine that I will ever be able to finish this, but I have a great support system so eventually, who knows, I may just pull this off.

Last time I wrote I announced my new job at the Hungarian Museum of Transport. I am a photo-archivist there, we do a new inventory, we do digitalisation and we sort out the whole archive. It’s been going great. Slow, but great. And I enjoy every second of it. In fact I am sitting in the photo archive storage room right now 🙂

This was just a brief announcement and hopefully I’ll be able to contribute more here in the next few months.
