I worked for six hours straight on my 'Random Practical Guide to Finland', putting the finishing touches on and completing the 20-page project six months in the making (though most of it was written in the last month). At the beginning of this month I was on a roll and so I made a promise that I'd have it finished by the end of the month, but the tragedy of my uncle's passing right after I made that promise threw me off track a bit and I had to catch up.
I was obligated to return some sort of review/report on the practical arrangements (and supposedly a bit about my feelings) of my expedition to Finland, but I couldn't fill out the simple forms they gave me without having a guilty conscience about the trivialization of the whole thing, so I chose to do a much more involved project. I left out my feelings and reflections of the place; I didn't feel that they would be relevant for most students who might be considering going there, so I kept my report to the practical and mundane stuff as much as possible, with some discussion of the typical Finnish personality qualities and practical customs/how-things-work.
Even though you'd expect me to be relived that it's done and over with (it's been stressing me out for the last little while), I actually feel a little bit sad that it's done. I don't know why. Maybe it's because this report is supposed to be my last "official" on-the-record word on something that was so... grand amazing incredible that finite words cannot do it justice.
