Finally I'm a Master of Science
The reason why I've been virtually gone from JABBAS WORLD the last few months is that I've been working on the final project of my Master of Science degree. Now I'm done! 5 years of studying at the university is over! It's a bit sad, but at least I have some spare time again.
Actually I have a lot of spare time, because I'm unemployed... There are not many vacancies that I am qualified for either. I'm searching and applying for jobs all over the country. The next months I'll be on my back in the garden when the weather is good, and here in JABBAS WORLD when the weather is bad.

I'm a control engineer. My speciality is autopilots for ships, but the principal is the same for controlling robots, cars, planes or whatever. Even though there are some differences, I can design systems for controlling a complete production line in a factory, too. (larger, slower system)
No, Gimp, I don't think I want to become a doctor. Not yet anyway. You need to find a scientific problem that you find particularly interesting to complete a good PhD. Right now I haven't got that kind of favorite problem. Maybe after a few years in practical work?
Trondheim is an amazing city for studying! The university is very good, especially the engineering part. That is very important, but far from everything. 1/5 of the city's population are students. This has made the city well adapted to the needs of the students, and the "natives" understand that the students are important for the city. The student society offers good concerts with international artists cheap, and a nightlife satisfying us all. No city in Norway can match the student life in Trondheim! I'm gonna miss that life!

After hearing all those positive words about the city, I think maybe my mind's made up.. No, I can't decide what I want to do for a living, so I have no idea what I shall study! 
BTW: Do you know a Thomas from Arendal who's 3 or four years older than me?

i congratulate you for whatever it is you did, and forgive me if i sound ignorant, but what is the use of studying for 5 years and gaining a prestigous qualification in some unearthly science that didn't even get you a job? the way i see it, if you spent 5 years racking your brain only to come away with a piece of paper, no job, and enough free time to plant flowers, then you've wasted your time
