4 Months Left

Assalamualaikum and salam sejahtera.

Hurm, about four months left.

Four months due for thesis draft submission.

I'm feeling the tense now. What have I done till now?

I promised myself to try to write up my thesis draft before Eid Fitri. I decided to work on the algorithm code by myself, improving the existing code by modifying it a little bit. Just a little bit improvement should be okay. Something smaller but significant.

The idea is there.

But the difficult task is to input the idea as an algorithm. I'm not a programmer myself. I did ask for help from an expert. I did show my results once I modified something in the source code. Something is not right by looking at the plotted results, but I don't know how to make it right.

The expert keeps silence.

Those are the things I have done so far.

Let's move on.

Let's plan for the things I should do from now until September. This month and the next month are my busiest time every year. As Eid Fitri is coming in a few weeks, my baking job piled up. I have to push aside my thesis for a while. Once Eid Fitri is over, I really need to rush my thesis writing and everything.

That's the time I'll have to temporarily close my part-time online bakery.

Shall I?
