random thoughts from France
Almost the end of the road
Posted 05-14-2008 at 12:06 PM by magosienne
two more exams to go, thursday and friday.
i also have to send my letters for next year, for what we call "Master 2". the master is a diploma in itself(2 years), although we still have another one after the first year(but you can't use it to apply in another uni in Europ like you can with a master).
except i know they select only the best, and although my grades are good, i'm not sure they will consider them so good i have the level for that diploma.
i never had any internship. because i need money, because you can't ask much of a student in his first or second, even third year of studies. because trainings are rare and hard to obtain, and they last long, sometimes i've seen offers of internship opportunities that would take the time i cannot afford to loose for a part time job.
i've also had sometimes to pass exams for the classes i failed before.
i also know what i want to do, and since i entered uni, all my classes choices have been made towards that goal. i have never taken a history class because it was easier to graduate from it, as many students have done.
i also got my 3 year diploma in five years. i know i could have worked better, but i also have to blame my uni for that, who can't plan the exams in advance when they demand teachers months before to state their timetables and plan them ahead.
this proves i can work and i can be stubborn in my work. i've also selected the masters 2 that were the most interesting for me. i've taken into consideration the teachers, the classes, the work we'll have to do. even the time it will take me to go to uni.
then i realised and remembered i've always wanted to have a 4 years course diploma, that i only need this one to apply for my dream job. always go as far as you can in terms of studies, so of course if i'm selected i'll be happy. but if i'm not, i still have the school inside my uni preparing me for my job, precisely the exam. i will have to work the same classes anyway.
i will be able to get a part time job if i want one. i will be able to maybe get a japanese course in another uni, i would love that. and i'm considering getting another master 1 diploma with another specialty, if i can use my current grades to skip some in that other diploma, which remains to be verified.
friday i will do my last exam, then go buy some stuff (maybe some for mother's day) i need, and then go on weekend with my parents, breathe some fresh non polluted air.
