GRADUATION!!!!!!
Wow, I almost thought this day would never come. In fact it did. I have graduated from university!!!!!Today, or sorry, it was already yesterday that I have defended my thesis, and was a week ago that I had my final exam on all the accounting I have learned in 2 years. I was very much afraid of the latter. Never have I experienced such stress before an exam, or at anything, not even job interviews with high stakes. God I have studied so hard, for two weeks almost day and night. In the end it went pretty well, except for the fact that I didn't understand the same question about three times....of course afterwards it turned out to be a very trivial question and easy to answer, but this teacher has the talents to confuse while asking. After long long discussion between the two teachers they have decided to give me an A!!!! This was very surprising for me, I have never got an A in accounting, except for some stupid computer class or thesis seminar. This gave me bit of an ego there. I guess I was studying hard, but even if I may not have deserved the A, on the contrary I could mention the comprehensive exam where I got a C while deserved a mark better... In the end it is better this way.
Then today (sorry again, yesterday) the defending. I have prepared a very detailed presentation, short version for the presentation part, and then lots of slides for backup. I guess I have been a maximalist /again, as usual/. Nobody cared about my backup slides, but they did care about my presentation content, and way of presenting. I got very good feedback on my thesis in general, and also on today's presentation. Overall I got an A for my degree, which counts as an exceptional achievement for me, as my GPA has never been very much above the B level, or even under if I don't count the elective courses.
So that's it!!! I am over my studies, and ended up holding a degree of economics which is of the highest rank in Hungary (and 25th in Europe LOL), and I am sooo proud of myself! Feels very cool. Like an olympic champion at the home stretch. (Naaa, that was when I got the job...) Really can't express how much a relief it is. I have shortly riffled through my years spent at university, and remembered good old times while being a freshman, and then when becoming senior and member of CEMS, then being an accounting major and most importantly an active organizer of the CEMS Community. Suddenly felt that all earned their meanings. Nothing can be compared to this. Feels soooooooo great!!!!
At this point I have to thank all the people having stood beside me these times. Thank you for my family bearing my freaky studying habits, thank you for the friends to whom I could wine about my complaints, and thank you for all the special people standing there for support neeeded. They know who they are. Or at least I hope so.
I can't tell more. I just can't express. Even though I have had really enough of university and felt the urge of finishing it earliest as possible, now it feels so unbelievable. Maybe it is. I need to get my degree in my hands to believe. I am a very visual type, if you remember :) so need to wait until next Friday to realize that I HAVE GRADUATED!!!!!!
