Ok I've only got 3 finals but I did hand in 9,000 words of essays last week so it's not all drinking and riding my bike. I'm not scared to say I'm a wee bit nervous but slowly getting there, the first one (Friday) is on Victorian Literature and has been really interesting not only because the texts are so good but also because the era emotes such sharp images for me; it must have been such a strange world when Darwin's theories (Origin of Species, 1859) came to light, the end of the century was shortly followed by the Monarch's death and all around the world seemed irrevocably changed and at an alarming pace.
The second exam is going to be awful, the lecturers don't even know what's happening so I hold little hope for a decent mark.
The third? Well as I'm studying literature it makes sense that it should be a 4 day exam on Polish History, doesn't it?
Ah, the final stretch, it'll all be over soon...and then to sleep, perchance to dream.
More likely an extended visit to a drinking establishment- see you there
