Well, on Monday I handed the first phase of my proposal to my advisor for proofing. Monday night when I couldn't sleep, I made the mistake of reading more journal articles. After reading the article, I realized that there's a much simpler way to validate my approach and results than what I had written in my proposal. Tuesday morning I e-mailed my advisor and told him I'm wanting to take a change in direction. I haven't heard back..... It's Thursday......
It could be a few things; either he's crazy busy (which I'll believe), he knew it was coming (which would be just fine with me), he agrees with me, he doesn't really care or he was going to change it anyway.
I'm not too worried. I'll just feel better with myself if I can present a document that is more complete in my eyes.
I bumped into Kira this morning and she told me, "If your thesis ends up being exactly what you wrote about in your proposal, you're the UNIQUE one." I guess she's right. Research and directions change depending on what you're able to find out. I'm cool with that; I just wish I could make up my bloody mind.
