It's a bittersweet freedom because that paper just ruined whatever chance I had at a decent mark. Whatever. FREE!

Most people complaining about people finishing before them don't know the half of it. I'm a first year economist and finish on.....

14th June.

Tbh, I always preferred finishing later. It gave me extra time to revise! But then I never finished quite as late as that. Other PPS students did, though. Specifically in the Politics stream.

I don't finish until the 11th.

Finding it really hard to give a **** when everyone else is drinking in the sun.
Two more days until my degree is over. Two more days. So difficult to motivate myself to carry on when pretty much all the other third years are done. The library has been scarily empty for the last few days.

My dissertation is due in on the 14th, and then Cambridge is over for me. For many reasons I wish I finish much later. :colonhash:

In theory I'd like another three weeks to learn everything please, but in practice I'm just tired and not really productive any more.

It's okay, you'll doubtless be back lecturing soon.

But then almost everybody I know will most likely be long gone :cry2:

How did this year and exams go?

Year went great thanks. Really bolstered my CV. At the expense of tripos work, which I basically started mid way through the easter break. With the result that my CV might end up with a 2.ii on it. Which is less than ideal, obviously.

You? Have you decided where to do your PhD yet?

Great, I'm sure you'll pull through!

Yep I'm going to Cornell, provided I pass my dissertation which I keep putting off...

I remember that. Not fun at all.
Everyone's hidden away before you need to start getting really serious, everyone's finished before you're done (or in some cases, before you even start. It's terrible for morale... but the libraries are generally nice and empty by the last Thursday.

(Also, you may wish to avoid what I'm about to write below this.)
