I closed a chapter about Scotland today!! (a new one open??)


Dearest all! how are you?? As I always do, I've been missing for a while, but I kept reading the blog. This time I have good excuses though...:-)

I explain the title of my post: less than 10 minutes ago I printed my thesis, surprising enough, I am finally done with a year-and-a-half work I began in Scotland, let's say February 2007, as some of you might remember...

I feel strange, I closed a chapter about Scotland which followed me long after the end of the Erasmus... Maybe I opened a new one! Maybe...:-p On 7th June I was in St Andrews for a conference about my thesis, and I happened to make a good impression on two professors, who asked me to take into consideration to come over to Scotland for my PhD... (Of course I am!!) So, we'll see...

The pic is from St Andrews, it's a view of the old ruined cathedral. Very charming little village (10.000 people!), and I do not need to tell you all how I felt to be back in Scotland! I think I speak for most of us when I say I left a part of me there...

Needless to say as well, I have still two big chapters open from Scotland, Mélissa and you all, and I cant but be happy about this! Sorry for the tone of this post, but I feel nostalgic today... :-p

Ciao to you all, hope I meet you soon, who knows where?
Miss you all!!

Giò

Congratulations Gio! ;)

You know that Andrea is going to Nancy (France) in November to start his PhD???

We will end up being a Doctorate Italian Society... :P

Take care!
- Diego

PS: Santorini was unbelievable or as Gio would say AWESOME!

Ohohohoho! Giova, finally!!! One year and a half of work, socio, and you're finally there! ;)
Hope everything is well, apart from the thesis, but I can get from your post that it is! ;)

Maybe now we can meet someday in Milan, at least before you leave us to get back on our "second home", also known as Scotland! :P

And as for Diego: man, I probably won't be a PhD... that makes me quite unconfortable since you all are taking that direction... :'( ...at least I still have Federico with me, who just began (one week ago) his experience in Accenture... :P
We'll see! ;)

Ciaooooo!!!
