I'm okay, how are you? I have just one more day off work. I've taken up writing in a diary for reflecting and daily planning purposes, with a Hobonichi Planner. And I'm using a fountain pen for the first time for it, but haven't found that part to be of any benefit yet.
The only way to learn anything is by repeating something until you really get it. So yes, it's definitely acceptable.
Couldn't agree more. Not only that, but not much melts my heart more than a guy who's enthusiastic about cooking for you too. <3
Happy New Year to all of you (well, Neogaf in general)!
I haven't said anything since my last post because I haven't done any progress either.
But I feel like this might be MY year: I am going to end my degree as a translator (well, you know, internship) in a video game localization company! I am really really excited about it, I was not expecting to be hired because there was only one vacant post and we had to go through a test that consisted of translating some dialogues and menu texts. And as well as focusing my final year dissertation (is that correct?) on video games.
So, in order to take a step further in my life, I think it is time to create the damned account in one of those sites. It makes me feel uneasy though because it frightens me that, perhaps, somebody from where I live might be on that website and recognise me (and, due to my dog, I see a lot of people everyday). I thought of creating an account without photos and relevant information, just to test the waters, and then I could create another one or fill that one in if I feel more confident. The problem is, in my opinion, that I will still be delaying the inevitable.
I do not know I guess I should stop giving too much thought and

Anyway, as to the last pages, I like threads like RPJ, even though I will never be capable of doing it, it is great to see the face behind those accounts.

Thank you for the kind words and for the explanation! It was a great insight, although I learnt a bit of how US and UK educational systems work, I have this doubt stuck in my head for a long time and, every time I checked a dictionary, it only gave me a headache.Congrats on the internship! And good luck with the dating site! It'll be scary at first, but I think things will get better.
Regarding your question: it's a bit hard to comment on "dissertation" because, from an American English perspective, I know that the American education system is quite different from others in other countries. In the US, "dissertation" is the term used to describe the final work of a Ph.D. program (also known as a doctoral program or described by saying "getting a/my doctorate"); these programs typically last 3-7 years and are the highest level of education. For an undergraduate (4 years) or Master's degree program (1-2 years), the final project is typically called a "thesis."
In the US, higher education typically goes undergraduate => Master's (this step may be skipped) => Ph.D., with most people stopping after the undergraduate or Master's (if they didn't already stop after high school).
Also, since you're in translation work, I guess I should say that "Master's" is also often written as "Masters." I don't know if there's a definitive answer to which spelling is correct.
Sorry if I went way overboard with the explanation. You might have known all of that, but I figured that if you didn't, explaining the difference between "thesis" and "dissertation" wouldn't make sense without a quick overview of how higher education works in the US.
, have an official dictionary? Similar to our RAE: http://www.rae.es/ where you can find not only word meanings, but also grammatical rules, uses and such. I would recommend to follow your own advice and seek professional help. I perfectly understand how you feel about it, I do not feel comfortable about opening to "a stranger" and narrating my personal issues (and, as you said, it is not the same under a nickname) but, some times, we are too deep in our own thought to see the situation as it is. And just forget about any stigma or whatever (just in case, because in my country we still have it), you and your mental state are more important than any of that.

I might conclude, after reading it, that thesis is one of those "false friends" given that the direct translation, "tesis", refers to those post-graduate studies or investigations in Spain rather than just a final project of a degree. Really interesting.
By the way, do you, Amerrrrricans
Noice, the US is pretty awesome
