seriously, I should be adding this to previous post but I am too lazy. Student of "ugly drawing" to answer question 3B uses: ".... see very ugly drawing C in top left hand corner" To answer question 3C. Epic :)

Actors in the play

The following characters play a role in my PhD life
Prof1/P1: left after a couple of months after my appointment, leaving us all behind clueless.
Prof2/P2: best Prof ever, however, doesn't know a thing about my topic.
P3: Prof3, but I need shorter names. S/He is new on my project and I asked that person to fill in the gap P1 left. There could be some tension between RA and P3...
DailySup/RA:Daily supervisor. Also doesn't know a lot of my topic. Is really really busy, has too many tasks one person can properly accomplish.
Significant Other:Unfortunately does not know university life, research hardship... This makes complaining hard, since no "proper" answers follow. Thinks I am underpaid, and not valued enough, therefore should pack my bags and leave.
