For those who are interested (easier than mass email, this lj entry), current timeline for diploma:
15 October (or so) the last version of the text is expected to be handed in.
Sometime between 20-25 October (don't know the exact date), I'll have to give a presentation on it (Ugh, I hate presentations).
November, the oath.
===============
On less personal news, the Ansari-X prize has been awarded! Tier One: Praise them with great praise.
Those interested in the Bush-Kerry thing go here for comments from Adam Cadre -- someone whom I often like to read.
Recently on It's Walky, where almost every character, good or bad, including the title character, has recently met his demise, I was amused to see an afterlife with even the atheist viewpoint depicted.
Can't say that I've seen many fictional universes with the possibility of atheistic afterlifes. :-)
===============
Lastly, to the people I've not responded to either in email or in lj, or to whom I've otherwise been remiss -- I sincerely apologize. *g* Starting next month I'll be a better friend again, I promise you. :-)

hello
Date: 2004-10-07 10:30 am (UTC)I wish I could be in Athens for the oath.
Anyway, just a word of advice, someday you're going to look on these days of just writing/programming the diploma thesis and you're going to say, damn that was nice... especially if you plan to go to the army like really soon.

Re: hello
Date: 2004-10-18 03:13 am (UTC)Presentation will be on the 26th after all. The good thing is I've been told it will be a short thing between 10 and 20 minutes. Will have to do a Powerpoint presentation -- but eh, given the brevity of the thing that's probably better than I feared. I feared it would be at least 30 minutes to an hour or something horrid like that.
Only some spelling and grammar and better expression of some paragraphs and some formatting work remains for the text -- will be printed and delivered before this week's end. So that's a relief.
Thanks, stav. :-)
