The whole thesis thing is finally finished. After a frustrating week full of revisions that seemingly never ending, it's really over. Thank God.
Yesterday was the announcement of my final thesis score and final GPA. I found out that I got the first rank in the Industrial/Organizational class, and 14th in the professional psychology graduate program. Yay, I guess? I don't know, I'm not feeling really celebratory. I just feel a relief that it's all over, a feeling that seemingly was shared by others that scored better than me. If anything, having a good score feels like a burden since there's expectation. But well, I'm glad that I've done well enough to make my family and friends quite proud.
The thing that worth a bit celebration is me getting a tablet. YAAAY! It's a Motorola Xoom, with Android 3.0 OS. I actually wanted a smartphone so I can be connected on the go, but the tablet was on sale and I finally chose buying the tablet instead. The tablet is connected by Wifi, but no additional 3G connection through SIM card, so there goes my plan of being always connected. I'm not really complaining though, since it's just lovely to read e-books there, and the e-mail client has a lovely minimalistic, practical design.
I haven't named it yet. It's temporarily called Agria out of whim. Any of you got any ideas on what should I name my tablet? It's black, looks tough, quite bulky. I have the urge to name it with something Latin / not common. Hm...
