The Susanne

Handed in my essay at 14:59 and can now only keep my fin­gers and toes crossed and hope for the best. Have begun read­ing the lovely little book that the girl recom­men­ded and I can hon­estly say I agree with her, this book is endearigly, enthrallingly sweet, cap­tiv­at­ing, hil­ari­ous all at once. I’m def­in­itely not going to sleep until I’ve fin­ished it, although I really could use some sleep. Have barely slept a wink for two nights in a row whilst com­plet­ing two very import­ant essays in three days and feel close to faint­ing, but at the same time strangely exhil­ar­ated. I actu­ally did it! I think instead of crawl­ing into bed I’m going to stroll down to my favour­ite café/shop/restaurant Mat og Mer to cel­eb­rate with my book and per­haps a glass of wine. Or maybe a coffee would be a better idea — but then, I’m done, I can drink whatever I want now and read whatever I want although I find myself strangely drawn to my course read­ing lists, per­haps it’s the intense three day essay mara­thon that did it, maybe my brain is so full of renais­sance lit­er­at­ure that that is all it can under­stand and relate to and wish for. Except for En rekke avbrutte forsøk (A series of inter­rup­ted attempts) which is the book I’m so in love with right now… Well, I’m off I think! Here’s just a tidbit from the party on Thursday; I’ll not go into any long tale of how fun the party was or how amaz­ingly Filo­lo­gen turned out or how proud I am of myself and the rest of the people who’ve worked on it, here’s 1000 words and then, ta-​ta! x
