Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! ...orals are over!!!

to quote Rebecca when i walked out at 4 yesterday
"You lucky bastard"

She was refering the fact that i'd gotten the same passage I'd done to prepare for my orals in December(The Walcott writers block poem). Life is good. So good.

It was wonderful: I spent about 45 min going through a panic attack before hand, then calmed down right before the thing started. I do not know what happened, I was just suddenly okay. Anyway, during my commentary ms. Showalter just kept nodding her head to such an extent that I thought it'd fall off. And I was enthousiastic beyond means.

That was the start of a wonderful day, after which immediatly came improv. I was about to rush in and tell Dan about my extreme happy mood, when I saw he'd been replaced by a sub was was asking each person what they liked. I, very joyously, replied that i had done very well on my oral commentary...blah blah..etc.
He thus asks "what else do you enjoy besides good orals?"
Me: about to crack up
