get things done

I have the document I needed. I only have to take the course I already registered for.

Finally! :)

the good news first: I was able to register for the course I want to take next semester!

the not so good news: there’s some confusion about the papers I need to have written (different lecturers keep telling me different things), so I might actually have to take another course and write another paper and in that case I’d have written one of them in vain. Writing papers isn’t the most joyful occupation I can imagine (oh, the understatement…).
But it’s no use crying over spilled milk and certainly no use crying over milk that only might have been spilled, so I’ll just wait and see and if I have to take another course, so be it.

the finishing line is right before my eyes. by this time next week everything should be resolved.
I already feel a huge relief. I used to postpone all other things in my mind, because I thought I need to get this stuff done first. so now I’m free to really organise the next steps towards my degree. it’s really motivating and I’ve promised myself to be better organised from now on. learning this lesson once has to be enough.

If I don’t get this done by the time the next semester starts, then I never will. if I never will, then I’m not getting a degree, no matter how long I stay at University. It’s better to face that truth sooner than later.
Why do I have to be so drastic? Sometimes immense pressure is the only thing that will make me face my situation and work on it…
