I passed my defense last week and this morning I turned in my official copies, having spent hours properly formatting the stupid thing.
Anyway, I'm just very excited and relieved, so I thought I'd share. |

haha, my friends and I did a substantial amount of drinking following our defenses. It was quite fun. Perhaps a little too much fun.

WOOT! Congratulations!
I assume it feels good to be done. Me, I had the weirdest experience - I got done with my defense, everyone shuffled out, and it was just me, at the podium, gathering my things. No angelic chorus, no trumpets, no huzzah and hurrah, just... silence. And I got really rather depressed. (Of course a lot of that may have been because I had no clue what I was doing next, and that suddenly hit me... ) |

So you're now antethesis?
Or would you just say ipso post facto? |

In some odd coincidence, My friend and I are going to finish editing our masters thesis tomorrow. We just spent 12 hours today purging out typos and checking notes and got a little past half-way. |

Congrats! How long were you going? What was your topic? Any tips on motivating yourself (from a prospective thesis-writer daunted by the fact his two older brothers crapped out (not that they're doing badly...))?

My thesis is titled: "The Buck Stops Where? The United States, Great Britain, the United Nations, and the Question of Responsibility for Palestine." I examined Anglo-American attitudes and actions toward Palestine through the lens of FDR's Four Policemen idea. Basically, I argued that originally, both the U.S. and Great Britain were happy with leaving the British in charge of Palestine, but following WWII, the British no longer wanted to deal with the situation, but the U.S. didn't really want to take over either, which then led to the failure of the UN's partition plan in 1948. I'm in the History program, in case you couldn't tell. Quote:

LOL, I didn't realize you meant your MA thesis. That's in 2 years for me, not 7.

Interesting stuff. You should start a thread sometime regarding the successes and failures of Israeli policy in that regard too. That's something Americans never hear about... to the news media Israel can do no wrong basically... it's a very hypocritical situation in some respects.

Many congratulatory phrases and pats on the back to you!! Your thesis sounds like something I would actually like to read (as opposed to most thesis' that I hear about).
