three down...

... and two to go. after tomorrow afternoon i'll be able to cross out one more of those pesky exam things under my column on the Living Room Exam Sheet, and be one step closer to rest and relaxation, and completion of the list of things that i want to get done 'after the exams'.

it seems surreal, because at this point in time i am reclining on the couch with renu, trying to figure out the significance of the bootstrap argument in the case of first energy, and coming to the conclusion that neither of us are particularly subject to a sense of urgency at the moment. which is not very good, by the way. but i'm sure it will hit us soon -- and we will be forced to go full steam ahead for tomorrow afternoon, and after that, when the adrenaline in our blood wanes, we will sit back and try to compose ourselves for a long break to study and recuperate from the fast and furious exam period of the past week.

come to think of it, even though there were a few days in between the exams that have already passed, there hasn't come a time of lull when any of us could stop to catch our breath. it was more of a situation where one would finish and we'd sit down and go right, let's start on the next one.

only tomorrow will i be able to really breathe easy. until then, as a diva once sang, i'll be waiting to exhale.
