Yeah, it was a crazy year so far, I finished my final thesis in computer science/math, I wrote my final thesis in philosophy, made my final exams in philosophy, began to work at the faculty at the same time.

The last weeks were full of preparation for my written (Pyrrhonean Skepticism) and my oral exams (Mill’s Utilitarism, Camus’ philosophy of the absurd, Hobbes’ Leviathan, Kuhn’s philosophy of science) - well and the same time to prepare my two courses. And now, YES, it’s finally done! Does that mean, that I’m no student anymore, but something boring like a “Magister Philosopher” or a “Diplom Computer Scientist” - hell no! I’m not the finished product of the factory university with the nice label sticked on in the end - I heard some people consider university to be such an institution. I always said, anybody who ever really began to study, will study all his life.

Beside is a picture of “Mr. Willi, the beetle” - the only person who was willing to stay up with me that long in the night in the radius of the next 11h by train. The other one - and much more important (sorry, Willi) was Dunja in Gent who gave me neverending support and energy (thanks to you guys at skype!). I love you
