It finally happened, I defended my giant thesis!
Well, one of them. And this one was actually the smaller of the two, but I was definitely more scared about this one. To be honest, when my prof was talking to the class about my paper while myself and two other students were on the panel, I didn't know whether to smile or cry with what he was saying, but he finished it off with "...and that's the brilliance of Beth's paper."
Yay!
I still have no idea what he was talking about, but I guess that means he liked it??
To celebrate our class finishing our presentations, there was a BBQ with snacks, pie and a copious amount of Guitar Hero. Let me just say that there is little better in life than watching most of your favourite class EVER participate (mostly with singing) in Michael Jackson's "Beat It", especially when it was videotaped so we can relive it over and over again!
I don't really know what to do with myself right now. I have an exam on Tuesday, but I don't want to study the entire time until then, and I do have to revise two of my papers but honestly what I have to do is not that big of a job. If it weren't for the snow (grrr) I'd be outside sipping lemonade and playing with the dog. So until the weather gets above 10 degrees, I think I'll stay inside and enjoying tea while playing with the hamster. That will somehow make it better, I think.
In any case, the countdown is on more than ever now until the end. I both can't wait and never want it to come.

So proud of you darling!
ReplyDeleteYeah, the word "brilliant" is not applied to student papers all that often. But then you did a really good one last year...
