Officially jobless

:D

I finally submitted two spiral bound copies of my thesis this morning.
*phew*

I am now officially jobless...well, atleast till monday. My boss has, on three separate occasions during the course of the day, mentioned that i will be working here in July. July!!!

I told her about two months ago, when she asked me about my plans for the summer, that I will not be coming to the lab this summer, as my parents want to spend some time with me before i'm bundled off to another continent. She grimaced, and i thought she'd remember that little detail, but no, must forget about my plans, and make plans for me instead. aaaargh.
she even discussed all the experiments i'd have to repeat and all the stuff i'd have to write up for my 'papers'.
Papers? what papers?
:(

anyway, atleast she can't take away my plan for this weekend. Early tomorrow morning, I'm off to Harihareshwar beach at Shriwardhan. Google it.
*is excited*

Uhm...My $0.02 of unsolicited words of wisdom - Take *all* the time off, spend time with the haranguing family, possibly backpack and see India...Life'll change in unbelievable ways you don't foresee now...Enjoy all the leeway you have for now!

Congrats on ze thesis. I'm sure it's very valuable research that'll save the world or something like that...*grin*

bosses can be a real pain! :( i hope you get some time off- may be it is worth re-asserting and putting your foot down.

good luck winding up and congrats on the thesis!
