This is a very random and strange picture. Which is why I love it!
God I love puns.
Can I call you Dr. Mata yet?
Not yet, but I’m finishing my thesis this weekend. It’ll go off to the examiners sometime in the next week, then they examine me by interview, a ‘viva’ (pronounced ‘vy-va’), then if I pass that first time I am officially a doctor.
The liklihood is that I won’t pass first time, and that they will request ‘minor changes’. Apparently only about 5% pass first time. ‘Minor changes’ means that I have to go away and add a few things, or take out a few things. That takes up to six months, but I can resubmit any time during that period. If everything is done to their satisfaction then I am immediately entitled to call myself ‘doctor’.
At the very earliest, it will be a bit over a month, but more likely it will be a few months yet… But I’m very close!
Well carry on, my wayward son. And best of luck to you!
