I Successfully Defended My Thesis
Well, it’s official. I successfully defended my thesis this past Friday, so in a few months, I’ll be the proud new owner of a $20,000 Master of Science degree. This means that I’ll no longer be a broke grad student, but a broke former grad student. Sweet.
Anyway, it feels great to make it over this final obstacle. Now all I have to do is finish up some revisions and corrections to my writeup, and I’ll be done for good.
“So what’s next?” you ask.
Well, I figure if I put as much effort into paying off my debt as I did into finishing up my thesis, then I can shoot for becoming a debt-free former grad student as soon as possible. The great thing about life is that as soon as one adventure ends, another begins.

Congrats! I can only hope to achieve what you’ve done in a couple of years… In any case, it’ll be interesting to follow your new adventure. Are you going to add the “former” part in the blog title too?
