    Eeeh... What's up doc?

    Hi guys!

    I just had my final phd presentation (well, some hours ago). A 45 minute presentation, with my family and friends in the audience, after which I was asked somoe questions by the examination board. The examination board then left the auditorium, only to come back with the joyfull news some 10 minutes later: I have my phd (phd in engineering: computer sciences)!


    Only downside: so far I have no certainty for employment come May. Most likely I can start working on a project in September, but I still need to find something to bridge this period . Ah well, there is little doubt in my mind I'll come across something.

                        Congratulations.

                        Me no PhD (a measly BSc), but I have a friend who is, three acquintances (sp?) and my wife is one. So I should be considered one anyway.
