The D-day dawns
Today is a big day for me. I will finally be defending my thesis in 6 hours time. Wish me luck!
It is over, it is done! From now on, you may address me as Dr. Charilaos Skiadas, Ph. D.
That is, assuming the dissertation office is happy with the margins

Just remember: this isn’t a qualifying exam; you know about your topic than they do.
Good luck!

Thank you all.
No secret handshake I’m afraid. Actually, no handshake at all, but they did sign the forms
