This is from someone also doing the PhD right now. I'm actually off to Thai food with my Dissy chair. Should be fun.
Good luck and Cheers! |

I hope you finish your's a lot faster than I did mine! It is a good feeling to be done and as a co-worker said to me when I was getting down about ever finishing and not sure I had the motivation, "They can take your job, your income, lots of things, but not your PhD, that's an accomplishment you will have forever." Oh yeah, finish *before* you have kids, I learned that one the hard way. |

However, I must ask: what are you getting your PhD in?
