That's the feeling I'm having at the moment. I've finished my last exam of my master study in Milan and now I'm left just with my thesis. So, instead of set of lectures to attend or list of exams that I need to pass of the subjects that I listened to at some time in history, I'm left with only _one_ thing to do. And this is a good feeling. No guilt, no stress, enough time to do everything and still enjoy life.

The only thing I'm missing is the proper celebration of this moment. But soon I'll be taking some trips so I can consider that as my rewards :-)

Autumn, fresh start

Though the spring is considered a season for the new beginnings (at least where I come from), when nature wakes up and everybody feels that love is in the air (or so the song says), I consider autumn more a season for this. Why? Well, it's a beginning of a new academic year (in student's lives it means a lot) and it usually comes after extensive holiday so you are fresh for new challenges.

But before I can start fresh here, let's see what happened since my last post. Well, there were some intensive periods with exams, project and work DLs. After those came well deserved rest with, of course, some trips and some house work. Out of all this I would specially like to emphasize a trip to the Island of Rab, where as I child I learned how to swim and where I haven't been for a such a long time I almost forgot how beautiful it is. Specially if you can share that experience with somebody dear to you.

And now I'm back in Milan.

While thinging about my future plans, I made a list of things that I want to acomplish by the end of this year:

• Graduate my studies here in Milan
• Enjoy the last months in Italy and discover Milan even more while I still can
• Apply to some internships for the next year
• Travel (already have some tickets)
• Excercise or do some sports each day
