| From Deggendorf- Final Year |
I know this feeling well now. The utter stress and nervousness that comes with exam time. With 2/5 of my exams done, the stress is beginning to recede. By tomorrow it will have nearly vanished. And when that stress finally makes its exit on Saturday- it will be because I have taken my final exam as a student here. Sure I still have a project and my thesis to finish… But the realization that my late-night study sessions and frustration at not understanding a simple theory have come to an end brings with it a great big sigh of relief. I didn’t have a clue how hard college in Germany was going to be. I am so proud of myself for sticking with it through all the failure and disappointment I encountered while I was adjusting to living abroad and studying in a way different from that I grew up practicing.
I persevered, and now it is paying off with my bachelor degree.
