Feeling bit warm and mushy. Had a supervision this morning, on some exam practice essays I wrote. At the end I was like "going to be blunt, you know this hasn't been the best year for me personally. To be honest, I'll still be disappointed if I get below a 2.i but I just wanted to know how you think it's going."
Director of Studies was like "You're going to get a 2.i. Working more at this point is to get a 1st and I know you want to do the best you can, but if you'll be happy with a 2.i then you need to prioritise your health, and you will get a 2.i."
Is lovely cos she could have been all "work work work, that's the most important, you need to get a 1st!" or even told me that I need to work harder if I want to get a 2.i to add more pressure. Makes me feel much more relaxed, which is also conducive to getting more work done. It's good to have some supportive people.
