.::. Norway .::.

Pictures paint a thousand words.






The most beautiful country I've been so far. Norway took my breath away yet again.

I'm returning my monitor tomorrow, which means I can't use my laptop anymore, which also means that I need to backup alot of data and will not be active online anymore.

So much to do. Gonna be a busy month ahead. Happily so.

Till then.

.::. The Day .::.

It went well. We were a mean opposition team, and our opposition was rather mild. Overall comments were really positive, and I think we did pretty well. =)



My group mates with our two supervisors.



My good friends here.



My thesis group mates. We worked pretty well together.



And so...I rushed back to pick the boyfriend up. I cooked him lunch while he slept, but he barely ate much and went back to sleep again as I'm typing this. *sigh!

I'm happy. I'm contented. I'm blessed, and I'm really thankful.

We'll be going to Lund to meet my thesis mate who will leave for China tomorrow, and there's dinner with close friends tonight.

Then, we'll be off to Norway tomorrow. I'm excited. I hope Bergen and the fjords will impress me as much as the last time. Most importantly, he'll be sharing this with me this time round. Luckily the weather's good when we're there!

.::. Overwhelmed .::.

I finally attended 3 other seminars and prepared for our opposition and defense tomorrow. It has been a crazy few days filled with so many thesis reviews, going through opponent's thesis and preparing for our own defense. I'm spent.

It doesn't help that I'm having a allergic reaction, with rashes all over. Luckily it's alot better today, but I still not at my best. *sigh. I highly suspect it is the hotdogs that I ate a few days before. I seldom eat processed food here and I know that I'm allergic to some preservatives. *sighsigh! Why now?!



I took some medicine and had a nap today, before doing some household chores to welcome the boyfriend. He's on the plane, flying towards me. The last few days have been too busy to feel much, and he has been traveling around in U.S. too. But after I prepared things for him, I suddenly feel alittle overwhelmed. I'm graduating, I'm seeing the boyfriend, I'm traveling Europe with him and I'm going to leave everyone I know here very soon. Overwhelmed is the word.

Despite being prepared and relatively confident, I'm still somewhat nervous as usual. Speaking infront of 3 professors and so many others can be intimidating, but I will do it. Well.

3rd June 2010.

A happy ending.
