Exam Time

It's almost the end of the voyage and that means the end of classes and
final exams. The cadets have been studying diligently in the library, in
the classrooms, in the mess and on the deck (when the weather permits);
anywhere they can find space to lay out their books and notes. They are
also scrambling to finish assignments, some due now and some that were due
weeks ago. The Library has been busy all day but especially so in the
evenings. They don't want to leave, but I can't stay open all night.
I've got to get some sleep. Everyone is under pressure to do well. You
can feel tension in the air. After investing two months in the Summer Sea
Term, no one wants to screw up in the last few days.

Eight more days to go!
