Yesterday morning I got the email with the examiners' reports regarding my thesis, and it has been approved (with a few very minor revisions)! I would like to say I jumped for joy when I read the report, but because of all the emotional exhaustion over the past 6 months, I really didn't feel anything. I was fairly confident to begin with that the thesis would be approved (my supervisors would look bad if it wasn't), so in that respect, the report is what I expected, nothing more, nothing less.
I am glad the approval is official now, though, because that means I can get the revisions done, get the final hard-bound copies of the thesis printed, and graduate in July. From that point on, the Ph.D. experience will be behind me, and I can truly move on. (On a positive note, I emailed the professor for my most promising post-doc opportunity, and he replied back that he would let me know pretty soon what is going on with the funding.)
The revisions will only take me 2-3 hours, tops, and most of that will be spent making sure the formatting in Latex is appropriate. And I am looking forward to holding that final, hard-bound copy in my hands.
