Thanks, and good luck to you too with your finals!

I'm finally giving in to my long time interest in Japan and Japanese, and trying to get into Asian Studies. We'll see. ^^ And for now, if I get in, I'll be aiming for the bachelor's degree... as I've (barely) enough student aid left for that. Maybe. Life might become financially interesting if I do start studying.

(Then again, I shouldn't complain. Bless the Finnish system - no tuition fees, and they actually pay you (a little) for studying.)
