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.
