Friday full of surprises

Last Friday was full of surprises. Fortunately most of them were positive:

• after 3.5hours of sleep Friday morning was even more chaotic and stressful then we expected, 
• regardless of the stress level TBBE was more fluent in his presentation than during all the practice speeches,
• playing a role of the interpreter for S. I was allowed to attend the debate and voting of the university  scientific board (normally only for the board members) after the TBBE presentation,
• the board's enthusiasm about his work was even larger than in the public part of the defence so TBBE received his PhD degree with a distinction :-)
• the lunch with the board members was less stiff and official than expected,
• only little hangover on Saturday morning :-)

Without surprises:

• good time with S.,
• S. paid 50PLN instead of 25PLN for a taxi to the airport only because he doesn't speak polish,
• good party on Friday evening,
• drTBBE charged his batteries :-D and is very similar again to the good old relaxed TBBE!
