Almost Done!!
Hah, I am nearly finished on my Shakespeare essay. I don't care that it's nearly 3am and I am still finishing it off: the feeling I get when I put it in the box tomorrow will be worth all of this stress and tiredness and over-indulgence on chocolate and biscuits (essential, really, when writing essays).
And I think, to celebrate, I will treat myself to some Nana manga. ^_^ Since last term I am so far doing a lot better at spending less money on manga ... and it feels really good to be able to reward myself like this now that I've earned it!!
Tomorrow I have one seminar at 1.30, which won't be particularly brilliant. But it doesn't matter - after that I will be able to go home and relax and enjoy the feeling of all this work being out of the way.
Maybe I'm making too much of this - after all, some people I know have to write a lot more essays, and I *am* an English student, after all. But y'know, essays still take EFFORT, man!
I do take a lot of pride in them though, as I do with all of my writing. I think it's because I'm a perfectionist in the way I write them: I have to keep going over them and making them as good as I can before handing them in. I'm reasonably confident about the two that I've just written, so I just hope I get good marks on them! I'm more worried about the Shakespeare one, not least because my tutor is very good and super-intelligent but also quite scary. She has very hawk-like eyes! (An observation which I made to a fellow student on MSN earlier almost exactly as he wrote something along the same lines. We both laughed.)
