Congratulations, Naty - you're doing great. Seeing what you can and can't do puts you ahead of the pack, IMO - you've done an enormous amount already.

I don't want to jump up and down till you've got the last one done... but I'm ready to jump for joy along with you on that red-letter day!

For those on the east coast of the U.S., that's 11am ;) (10am central, 9 mountain, 8am on the west coast...)

Naty, now you know what you can accomplish... and here's hoping you never have to do it all in quite such a short time again!

See you all at the party,

I am heading home to both parents on saturday I believe and staying there for 15 months. A lot of my stuff at uni went home with my parents the weekend just gone, so my room is VERY empty.

You may now all party! I handed in my essays half an hour ago. (Well all apart from one that will be done over the summer but lets not worry about that one now)

I also got one of my essays back. I got 61% (2:1)- this is the grade I am aiming for! I was not actually expecting to get this at all so was really happy.

Thank you all for the support over the past few months. Reallly appreciate it :D
