    I stayed up all night (went to bed after 9 am on yesterday morning), but it was so worth it. I managed to return the first version of my Proseminar Paper on time, and tomorrow I'll hear what everyone has to say about it. I still have to prepare some kind of presentation for tomorrow about it, but that doesn't sound bad at all in comparison of what I've already achieved.

    Finishing that version of the paper and returning it was a HUGE weight lifted off my shoulders. I was also surprised that even though I stayed up the whole night (just drinkin sweet tea and eating a couple of rice cakes), I never got really exhausted, just a little tired, and even that passed. In the morning when the rest of the world was waking up and I had finished my job for the night I felt absolutelly awesome. And not tired. I went to bed for a few hours, though, before waking up, taking a shower and going to a bar with other translator students (I don't drink alcohol, but it was nice to go out and see people and just chat).

    If I felt this good after finishing the first version (not even the final one yet) of my proseminar paper (the final version of which is going to be my Bachelor's Thesis), just how great am I going to feel after finishing my Master's Thesis?

    Had my last day of classes today. Exams on monday, tuesday, wednesday, and two on friday. And I feel damn good about how this is going to go.
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Good Luck to everyone with exams in the offing.

    I have chickened out of the (optional) exam in the Welsh course - said I had Been There, Done That, Got the T-shirts/Certificates for most of my professional life and wasn't going to do it any more now that I've retired; this was Learning For Pleasure. The tutor agreed and surprisingly, so did the most of other students, especially those who were also retired teachers and had taken the Introductory exam two years ago and realised exams are just as horrific taken for 'pleasure' as for real. We are all sorry for those of our fellow students who have been sent to the course from their place of work and so have to make a stab at the exam at least to prove they really have been at a course not skiving off and their boss's money has not been spent in vain. (Welsh and English not only have equal status in the workplace but companies have to offer the option of working in either language, especially in the Public Service sector, so a certain number of employees have to be Welsh speakers, on paper anyway.)
