Today I milked my pregnant status for all it was worth.
I had my thesis committee meeting today, and I got away with:
submitting a report less than 24 hours before the meeting (it is to be submitted at least one week before the meeting),
a presentation that lasted perhaps 30 minutes (usually they last for 3 times as long)
and having no additional experiments suggested AND
the meeting ended with an undisputed consensus to let me graduate soon-perhaps even by the end of the year! (Inshallah, let it happen!)
My friend Advay, when he was here in Pittsburgh last week, told me that I wasn't taking full advantage of my condition. He told me that I should get people to do WHATever I wanted. Advay, my buddy, see how good things happen to people who wait? *smirk*

Excellent! Congratulations! That's great news. I just emailed you about it. Should've checked here first. :) I wouldn't give all the credit to your pregnancy. I'm sure you did an awesome job there!
So what now? Are you taking time off and relaxing? I hope you are. It's a break you need and earned :)
