1. that's GREAT news!
congratulations!

I'm always in awe of people who work so hard as you do. I wish my kid had 1/10 of your ambition.

5. education can be addictive
I ended up getting 2 bachelors degrees before I got a job offer too good to pass up. Otherwise I might still be in school.

enjoy the stress-free time!

2. Good for you
How much longer do you have? And what area are you studying? I've missed that but I sure admire your drive and ambition. You deserve a break. :hi:

9. Cool!
I'd love to have an apartment in India just so I could get some writing done without all the distractions.
