Where am I?

I am this close to completing the first draft of my current WIP. The one I have sweated blood over since September, worrying about the execution and if any of it was even feasible. Spoiler: it was! At this current moment I have two chapters left until the whole thing is done. Then shall begin the aching process of editing. I am both eager and fearful of what is to come.

Not to mention I still have to work on my dissertation. And by "work on" I mean "start preparing for". I want to be in the best position when classes roll around again which means planning in advance. I got my grades today and I'm not entirely happy with them. Mostly because it took my about fifteen minutes to understand them and then another five to realise that it is lower than what I got last year. So it might be possibly that my story won't get priority this summer, as I plan to work at least 20% more than I have, which will balance out my grade - hopefully. Gah. I'll probably end up like this by the end of summer:

So there's that to look forward to. Hooray!

On a slightly less crazed note, I'm off to Italy in a few days so won't be around to update my blog until the 22nd. See you all then!
