Nearly time for a holiday
The exam stress is nearly over. Had an exam yesterday which went ok, not entirly over the moon with the result, but I've definitely passed. You know when you study your syllabus horizontally and then they start asking you diagonal questions or ask you to compare things you hadn't even thought about putting together... Was a little bit like that but I think I've managed ok. Russian Grammar, this morning, on the other hand was another perfect example of why I wouldn't do well in a casino. I'm rubbish at guessing. However, I'm fairly sure I've failed this one but that hardly comes as a surprise...
I'm taking the Eurostar back to England tomorrow and will sit my last exam at Imperial College. Might also sneakily enquire about my Masters application cuz I still haven't heard... Nerve wracking. What is left for me to do today is:
  1. do the dishes (over a week's worth!)
  2. finish off my paper about swearing for the exam tomorrow
  3. write about what could be improved in the British culture course next year (part of the exam)
  4. watch an episode of Spooks with Julie as a light break between studying
  5. sing (haven't sung for over a week - not counting choir practice)

Just talked to Saskia, an old friend from the Night of the Proms era and we're meeting up next week in Leuven. Jeeeej. Stu's never been to Leuven so I think it will be cool for him to go somewhere new. Might contact the Stella brewery and see if I can organise a guided tour; that should keep Stu quiet!
