Three-month report

I've been stressed out for a wee while now. Partly because three months is almost up and my supervisor is writing my 3-months report soon. My output for the research is currently zilch. But he assure me that for 3 months, he didn't really expect me to have done much. I would've been lucky enough if I can get the whole time-frequency analysis thing around my head.

Honestly: what do they expect us to do in 3 months? Most of the time for a PhD we don't even know for sure what the topic is going to be. 3 months has enough time for us to read up on things and try a few things on Matlab. That's about it. Even my surprivisor thought it's just silly to require a report within 3 months.

Ah well, less typing and more reading. Gonna try to finish the chapter I'm on today, and then try my best to summarise everything I've done once my supervisor is back.
