uwaaa...sedihnya.
my sv just replied my email and set the meeting to may 31st. looks like mak balik dulu la nampaknye!!! sedih betol la. harapan untuk balik in june nampak sangat sangat samar as i am sure lepas meeting i would have to do some corrections and rectification etc pastu sure kena submit balik pastu baru maybe bleh go ahead with fieldwork. *sob*
on the bright side, i am almost done with my broadcasting in Malaysia paper (only need to analyse 1 week worth of intisari rancangan to see foreign vs local tv prog and prog targeted for youths...baru start collect so next tuesday baru cukup 1week of data) and shall begin a new paper on the Malay identity (due 28may). so i guess, i can show my sv both papers which i have hopefully finished writing on my next meeting. :)
at this point, i really want to make sure everything important is settled before heading back.harap-haraplaa boleh balik in July!
i still need to find out the ethics punye stuff (cos i will be interviewing minors so must get consent from parents) and also where to get letters and documents for this.
And more importantly, sv have yet to give me that sv-student agreement thingy and my progress report and a bunch of other stuffs. which means, selagi benda-benda tu tak approve, selagi itu la ai kena duduk kat sini. *meraong*

sabb, u dah brape lama into the phd? ouh, balik nak prepare for field work mmg stress... kalau tak calm down, kelam kabut jadinye nnt... recently masa i balik feb-march 2010 for my 2nd phase i ada apply for researcher's pass from EPU, coz i needed to get some info from DBKL for my work. I rasa it's not a requirement pun, coz ada my colleagues takde researcher pass tu boleh je proceed collect data. okay je. Just that, I found with the researcher pass, the local government/agencies mmg lagi obliged to help me out la, and Alhamdulillah they were very helpful. So I hope your data collection pun will go well and get all the info u need ya!
hie kayla,
i technically just started with phd work last nov walopon dah ada kat sini since nov08 (coz had to do Deutsch for a year). owh...how do i apply for a researcher's pass? maybe that would help because i am planning to approach those kids through their schools. :)
