Cramming
No, I don't have an exam-- my last was 2 sems ago. Besides, classes have ended March 23. And that was the day Dr. Georgina Encanto emailed me, then asked the Journalism Department to call me. My, I'd been visiting her 2 weeks in a row and she would just tell me she's a little busy to check on my thesis' first draft. Fortunately (or maybe unfortunately) it's end of the road. April 4 is deadline for submission of grades and I'm just revising my first draft. Miracles. Yeah I still believe in miracles! Believe me, I'll get my grade on April 4.
