Relief!!!

Finally, i can heave a HUGE sigh of relief =)

I just had my meeting with a professor from Princeton University regarding my PhD work, thanks to my supervisor who arranged for the meeting (at quite a VERY last minute notice...i only had one day to prepare)

Prior to that, i was having cold feet and stomachache cause i was so nervous. His CV is IMPRESSIVE! Basically, he's kind of a big shot and a big name =) I spent the whole day yesterday preparing all my work, going through what i want to say to him, what questions to ask and how i would do the overall presentation of my phd work thus far...

i had a 30 min slot with him this morning at 10am. i only took 12 mins. i thought i did a bad job...

i had a chat with my supervisor just now..and she said that the professor was 'very impressed'. He commented that i was well prepared and had prepared the documents (which i hurriedly updated yesterday) in detail and that i knew my work. Overall, he said that i am an excellent student =)

well, i sensed a greater sigh of relief than a sense of pride/achievement. i'm just glad that it's over...

to end it all, my supervisor commented "1st step in your career!"
