Done!

Goodbye finals! It feels fantastic to finally be done.

A few days ago I got a horrible migraine that left me capable of doing little more than lying on my bed and showering myself with self-pity. And on top of that I think I got some food poisoning or something because my stomach hasn't stopped hurting in the past three days, so I haven't been able to eat much. Which, while a nice break from my usual pre-finals eat-until-I-feel-sick ritual, only made my headache worse.

So overall it was a bit of a struggle. My history final was really stressful. I picked a question out of a paper bag, had 15 minutes to prepare, then presented for 15. I was so nervous I'm pretty sure I said the same thing at the beginning of each sentence.

But I'm done, and it's great. Now I get to prepare for Brussels and my flight home for Christmas!! I was looking at my planner and on December 23rd I had written "Going home! Can you believe you did it?!" No, me from half a year ago, I can't.

Now if only my stomach would go back to digesting properly, everything would be perfect.
