Things are entirely on the up. Hoorah.

Finished another overdue assignment today. One more to go then I'm all caught up.

I'm pretty excited about September now. I never thought I'd be capable of finishing this degree - it's been so many years and such a battle. I'm now about to transfer onto a full time course again, and I'll graduate next summer.

The plan is to carry on after that with postgrad study, eventually a phd... That's slightly too terrifying to think about, I don't think I'll follow that train of thought right now.

No-one thought I could do it, least of all me. I was so ill for so long. Even since I've been (relatively) well, my head was such a mess it just didn't seem possible that I could be this focused and determined. Consider it a hangover from a decade of mental illness.
