Theoretical/Conceptual Framework

The second hardest part, next to Foreign and Local Studies, in Review of Related Lit. Been searching the net for hours and still I haven't find anything that I can use for my study. The framework is one of the most important part of the study, its your basis and it will define how your study will go.

In doing Theoretical/Framework, you must know:
1. What is your study all about?
2. What do you want to conclude with your study?
3. In what field is your study the closest? Psychology, Sociology, etc.?

Two things that you must keep in mind in choosing your topic: The Related Lit and Theoretical/Conceptual Framework.

Review of Related Literature

RRL is, probably, the hardest part of any research. It's the basis of your study both local and foreign studies. My topic has few foreign RRL and almost non local studies. I completed my Introduction and Methodoly but my RRL is still empty. Goodness.

Here's my advice, if you're looking for a topic for your research or thesis make it sure that you can get a foreign and, especially, local studies. It will make your thesis life less miserable.

First.

"Can I just pay someone to do my thesis?"
That's the first thing that came into my mind when I was told to change my topic at the start of the semester. How unlucky of me. And now, I'm cramming my Review of Related Literature for me to pass my proposal next week. I want to present as soon as possible. Gawd! What have I done? Nothing. Yeah, did nothing. I don't know how to prioritize things and here I am finding myself being tamad once again.

Now, back to thesis-ing once again.

[Thesis-ing = an act of doing your thesis]
