In an hour and a half, I get my trauma paper (the one I will expand into a BA thesis) back. I'm incredibly nervous and don't know what to expect. My sister, Matze and a couple of friends have been telling me to stop worrying because I always get good grades but somehow that just makes me feel like the stakes to be good are higher.

I jeed to stop

Thanks! It went really, really well. My advisor praised my presentation skills whih I wasn't expecting because I perceive myself as not being good at it and I got a 1.3 in the term paper (grades work in a really weird way with 1.0 being the best one and 1.3 the next best thing. I don't know what happened to 1.1 and 1.2, they don't exist). The main points of criticism were redundancy here and there and the lack of secondary literature. Those are pretty useful since it's something I can fix for the second version. I got a lot of praise for my writing style and she told me she's really looking forward to reading more of my work which is really flattering.

I know those are all indications that there's no need to panic next time around but I'm still going to. It's just a character flaw ;)

Haha, I would too! I always panicked about stuff like that. That said, good for you! That's awesome and amazing praise!!!
