I'm Done!!! Hello Home!!!

weehee!!! the wild taste of freedom! seriously for the last 2 months, i must say, i have been languishing in pain, studying everyday and feeling like it will never end. there were times where i just wanted a break and do stuff without exams nagging at the back of my mind and finally, yesterday, at 1730, i was free.
this feeling of being liberated to do anything i want is mind blowing, though i haven't had the chance to fully have a taste of it. mind blowing because you've been trapped in this cycle for so long, caught up in a system of studying, forcing yourself to study because you didn't want to do too badly, telling yourself it's good to study, giving yourself momentary breaks which were mostly a way to distract yourself for a while so that you can come back and study even more, and finally, on the last day, at the last second, you are free, free to do anything you want, free to have fun with no commitments and obligations. wow. but i did enjoy the process of lamenting the fact that everyone else was done and i still had 2 freaking papers and then studying... it was a feat!!! i think the entire process was a feat! that i hung in there till this point and did what i could to not let myself down! and to have such self control over myself despite the many distractions i faced! and i can boast that i did two 3-hr essay papers on my last day. Let me tell you how bad it was, by the end of the papers, i had two blisters on my fingers and my hand felt sore, almost as if it was about to fall off. but. but. but! i'm done! the final point of this year.
i'll have to do some reflecting on this year since yesterday marked the end of the academic year for me. i must say i really did do some work here! it was not all rosy here all the time, but i survived and really learnt a lot! and now it's time to look forward to going home! on the 29th! 21 more days and hEllo HOME!!! all this time... and now i'm finally able to count down the days to home with all my heart!
and now, the greater realities of life - laundry, yes, i have a mountain of laundry to settle cos i haven't been maintaining the upkeep of my personal hygiene since the start of exams, or was it the start of easter hols? haha!
