My examiner committee has finally been approved, so I can now finally submit the five copies I have previously made. Now all I need to do is pass the final exam on August 2nd and submit some more forms and the final copies of thesis and I’m done!

Submission. That’s an interesting word. The American Heritage Dictionary defines it as:
Submission. n.
- The act of submitting to the power of another.
- The state of having submitted.
- The state of being submissive or compliant; meekness.
- The act of submitting something for consideration.
Am I relinquishing power or being meek and compliant by handing in my thesis? Does Nature (or the examiner committee as an agent thereof) have control of my future? Or am I thinking too much?
in my Blog this would be filed under “Etimologia Beshekel Tish’im”
