Hey guys!!! I've missed you!!
I'm sorry I took off for such a long time, but yesterday I handed in my dissertation.... and It was one of the most stressfull 3 days of my university experience... but oh well... now it's over... I just have to wait two weeks for my... i don't know the word in English, but basically stand in front of everyone and do a little presentation of it...
But well.. I'm just glad to be back, the only reason I haven't been on the boards is just cause I know myself.. and I checked them like every 15 minutes... even before finals... and this Final Project took a lot of on-line research (which i would have gladly exchanged for my travel research).
Now, how convinient is it that my boss didn't come in today? I have ALL morning to catch up.
Hope you're all doing well!!
-Florencia.-

Glad to see you back. I know we call it a "defense." Doctorate students and some others usually say they have to "defend their thesis." Since this is the case, good luck on your defense.

Nice to see you again Flo! We've missed you.
I remember my last semester in college, all the work it was and how everything else in my life was completely neglected. It's probably a good thing I didn't know about TravelPunk then because I may have not had the will power to not check the boards for a month!
Good luck with your dissertation.
Again, good to have you back!
