@matigo I'm not sure stress ever gets that high with me :o A little bit of stress, of course, but just enough to motivate me to do a little bit every night and to be very careful with my time management. Now that we're this close to the end, I can pretty safely say I don't regret doing it the way I did — I was still going to parties and dinners throughout, and I didn't work at all over the Christmas and half-term breaks.
It is true that at some point you just have to stop tweaking and submit the damn thing. That'll be my biggest issue, I think, because I'm writing it in French — the first person to do so. Really need to be very careful with proofreading the grammar…
