It's been a while I haven't update this blog. 2 weeks ago was a mess, mainly personal related problem with its real consequences on the study. Thank God everything is back to normal. My regular visit to the Gym have had side effects of fatigue and less focus on the readings, so I decided to take a break for a while until I have come up with a good draft of my research proposal (hopefully by the end of this month).
The core structure and ideas are clear, yet filling the structure is quite another game.
Meanwhile, LR review is painful as always, but I managed to get myself going even though painfully slow :(
My research in progress paper to one of the conference in Europe was rejected: unfortunately, the reviewer didn't provide any constructive comments apart from the obvious editorial mistakes. Have filed a formal complaint but not really sure about the response.
