I'm there. I'm at the last year of Political Science at Naples L'Orientale University and I still have to do two exams from the 3 years graduation (Diritto Pubblico and Economia Politica). But I will make it. With a little help from my friends and from music I will make it.

The point

Let's make the point of the situation:
I did one more exam on the 26th of June. It was Chinese language and literature and I got 26. I made a paper about Lu Xun's Madman Diary, and as always I did the exam with my friend Laura Busi Rizzi.
Now it's october. I skipped the October 7th history of East Asian Art exam date and now I just heard from a friend that there's going to be an extraordinary exam date on Wednesday 28th, though I have Ethnomusicology on Thursday 29...shit...
I'm sure I'll make it.

after one month or so

As you can see, I did some exams these days.
Informatica per le scienze umane was kind of easy. I had to do a powerpoint presentation(I did a powerpoint presentation on "The events preceding An Lushan rebellion") and a text in the language we are studying. I study chinese and it was no big deal to do one page of text in chinese. We talked a bit and i had a 30/30 cum laude.
The next two exams were the literature part of Chinese II and History of Religions. I did a paper on Li Qingzhao; a really bad one, with a lot of information copied from websites in english and no translated poetry. The professor was mad with me and I answered bad to some questions on Qin Shi Huangdi.
I had 24/30. not bad, really.
History of religions was interesting though it didn't have any close attinence to my studies. It was a discourse on the history of christianity in late Roman Empire and the hebrew people of Alexandria. I had 27/30 because I was interested.
The next two exams are still 2nd year ones. I have geography (5 credits) and History of East Asian Art II. I wish there were exam dates in december but there are only in january.
fuck.

exam done

On october 16 i did my exam. Not bad: 26/30.
We talked about internal policy of Yuan dinasty, about esternal influences in Tang China and neo-confucianism in Qing intellectual world. She said my work on An Lushan was "non malaccio" that means "not a complete shit".

help

I've been so bad these last 7 days. I didn't study a lot, but I sent my paper on time, and the professor looked kind of happy with it. The only problem is that I have to study about 6000 years of chinese history in 3 days.
