Yesterday at 2pm via Skype I defended my proposal in front of my adviser and my two readers. It was tough. I didn't think it would be all sunshine and accolades but I hate long questions. I never know what part to answer. They had general reservations about the scope. It seems unreasonably ambitious but I feel good about it. The proposal is vague but this is only because I have not had 2-weeks to think about it and investigate. Every moment since classes ended in June has been a fight. Since August my living space has been chaotic and interrupted. I have lived in three different places so far and have not yet made it to Rochester.
And although I have many many things to accomplish still, I feel freer. I just have to write and sure it can keep coming back for revisions and someone might suggest another chapter but so what. I only have to continue to write.
