woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo!!!

[aesc]

I passed my oral defense! I'm now officially ABD!*^ Eeeeeee!!! *runs around like an idiot*

* = All But Dissertation.
^ = not ADB (which is what I typed the first time), which is A Dog's Breakfast. Still cool, but different.

My excitement cannot be contained by text!

And now if you'll excuse me...




I am going to go play some golf!



Or maybe just pass out :>

There is truth in this!!!

[mems-derynicat.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! The worst is in the past now!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

It really is!!! I actually am not all that worried about the dissertation (though that will probably change)... it's the "trying to remember a zillion things" that's had me the most worried out of everything I have to do :D

[spoiledjap.livejournal.com]

OMG!!! So proud of you.Congratulatitions!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

*smoooshes Rs!*

[inthekeyofd.livejournal.com]

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Working with a TON of PH.D's, I can tell you that is QUITE THE ACCOMPLISHMENT!!!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!! I have to say, it's the field exams that have freaked me out... I am quite sanguine (at this point) about the dissertation. But exams *flaps* So much stress, but NO MORE!

[winkingstar.livejournal.com]

YAY!!! You rock! And you definitely deserve some golf and passing out (with a side of openshirt+chesthair and belly♥). :D

[aesc.livejournal.com]

BELLY.

Eeeee! *is dizzily smooched!*

I am about to take the passing out option in about 15 minutes :D

[fractalreality.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

Though, it would be cool if you suddenly became 'A Dog's Breakfast'... or not, I haven't quite decided how that would work yet.

Belly golf is an idea I could really get behind!

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Though, it would be cool if you suddenly became 'A Dog's Breakfast'... or not

If it ended up with me being cut into bite-sized chunks, I hope not! :D

[fuzzmonkeys.livejournal.com]

Congrats! I'm still dreading my undergrad thesis next year, I'm trying not to think about what I'll have to do in grad school. It strikes fear into the hearts of many.
(Hell, I don't even know what I'm going to do in grad school. Mostly depends on whether I decide I have a snowball's chance in hell of becoming a semantics prof.)

What's your doctorate going to be in?

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Thank you!! The worst part about grad chool, I think, is waiting to find out if you got into a program :/

What's your doctorate going to be in?

English! So I will be one of those people Rodney looks down on in complete disgust as having pretensions to academic rigor, though he'd be willing to grant that at least English majors don't try to pretend we're scientists *g*
