IT OVER. My two month exam period is over. With a passing score in 2 out of my 3 exams I would call that a success. The one exam (histology) I didn't pass yet I will sit for again in April.
Over the past two months other then eating and breathing my life/schedule consisted of the following.
7 or 7:30 wake up. at the beginning I would go for a run starting around February I just dressed and went to the study hall at school
8:30-10:30 study. this was my favorite time to study as the study hall is quiet. Most people are either in class or not there yet.
10:30 Coffee break
11-1 study
1pm lunch
2-4 study
4 coffee break/snacks from the market break
4-7:15 study
7:30 dinner. Because I live in the residence we have dinner prepared at a restaurant monday thru friday which was a life savor.
8:30-10 call home, study, watch tv.... PASS OUT to start it all over the next day.
Needless to say after two months of this I was/am a little burnt out. We all complain that its hard and we are crazy for doing it but we all love the topics or we wouldn't be here. I get four days of vacation here in milan and then I start classes all over again monday :-). For my vacation I plan to not plan. For anyone who knows me knows this is hard and probably impossible but I am going to try. Things at some point I would like to do are the following...
Check out the aquarium again (favorite place in all of milan)
scope out the donut shop in Loreto which I hear is amazing
tomorrow we are going to IKEA and the mall
maybe a run here or there we will see.
More or less I am going to just sleep relax and recharge because monday my life as I know it will end... but to be honest I wouldn't have it any other way :-)
Till we meet again,
-M-
