I made it

I meant to post earlier, but I've been in recovery mode pretty much all weekend. :P It seems everything went well: I didn't rip my dress or fall over, my shoes stayed on, we had no technical problems and there was the right kind of food for the right people at the after-party. And my opponent warmly recommends that my thesis be accepted. Yeah, that too. ;)

It was really kind of fun, to get to talk about the work, and I was much less nervous than I expected. I'm generally a worrywart, so it's quite surprising how relaxed I was pretty much throughout. No complaints about that! And the after-party was a lot of fun, first the official part with dinner, then I got to spend time with some friends and relatives too. And apparently the friends and relatives weren't bored to death either, even at the defence itself, so that's a plus.

So once the university bureucracy runs its course, I should be getting my degree. And that's that. Wow. Anyhow, now I'm hoping to see some simming in my rather immediate future. :)
