Doctor of Philosophy

I have not posted anything for a while and I have valid reasons for it. For the past months, I was occupied with meetings with Professors, writing, re-writing, editing dissertation, presenting my work to co-workers, submissions of documents to graduate school whilst looking after my son.
During this phase, I also had 'hand-foot-mouth' disease, which was surprisingly painful but I am so thankful that gunden did not contract this disease.
Despite the crazy schedule and sleepless nights, I finally submitted my dissertation and successfully defended it on August 28, 2017! A faculty meeting a week later, screened my dissertation and doctorate application and decided to confer a doctorate degree to me on September 7, 2017.
The graduation ceremony was held on September 25, 2017 and now I have officially obtained my doctorate degree!
