General Exam

I Passed!!!
I'm now a fancy-schmancy PhC!

Ok, the hilarious part is that as I was setting up to give my powerpoint presentation, I spilled coffee on my laptop keyboard. Expletives flew out of my mouth, I turned the computer upside down and shook wildly, then used napkins to dab up the rest. Good thing that laptop keyboards are so shallow - I was able to soak it all up. Of course, not without pressing lots of buttons and inserting random slides into my talk! This all happened about 2 minutes before my committee started entering the room, yet I somehow managed to pull it off, and my computer didn't even explode!


This is my dining table, which became a desk for 6 weeks while preparing for the exam.
