I am mentally drained

Supervisor forward email ni

Dear Lewis I am following up on Khadijah's confirmation of candidature. Has aliterature review been drafted and a seminar been given?
Kind Regards

------------------------------

Mek sentaplah yang amat walau dah jangka. I'm the only PhD student yang tak confirm candidature. Depa strict dengan non-Aussie due to English proficiency. I know I should work on this but I just couldnt find time to work on it. Siang kat lab. Malam working on report/abstract. FB dan blog adalah ketika langsung otak tak berfungsi.

Dah setahun ok, tapi tak confirm lagi candidature. Ngalahkan bebudak yang kat UK. Suppose sini 6 bulan je. Dah agak dah depa akan tanya sebab Peter dah hanto lit review dia. Lit review skang ni cuma 25%..huks. Perlu masa untuk capai 50% *sigh*.

I swear, if my sv did not reply to this email I will have a depression.

Hi Anna, Thank you for the email. Dijah has prepared an outline of her literature review and is in the process of starting on that task. She has been very busy with experimentation and her progress has been excellent having conducted 2 large experiments in the first year or so of her enrolment. That task has priority for now over her lit review but in the next few months she will begin that task and have a solid first draft completed by September this year. I consider her progress of tasks to be excellent. She has not yet completed a seminar but will be presenting a 15 min presentationat the Aust Soc for Animal Prod conference in Armidale during July 2010 anda poster paper at the International Congress of Parasitology in Melbourne in August this year. My advice is that her confirmation should be accepted now on the basis of her completed tasks.
With regards

Like student, like sv. Kaki propa! keke. Pandai kan encik bos propa. So, kalau kawan-kawan nanti jadi lecturer, contohilah sv. Bersemangat menyelamatkan tengkuk anak murid. Walaupun memang tak boleh confirm tanpa submit 50% of lit review dan bagi seminar, tapi encik bos gigih usaha untuk mensucikan nama I. kekekeke.

Ai lab you sv! Fighting.

Hiatus. Kena siapkan lit review *seka air mata*..
