Three-Hour Lunch Break

So I probably spent about 9 hours on the first exam, which had 3 questions.

The second exam had only 2 questions, so naturally I feared the worst....

But three hours into the process, I took a 3-hour break to have lunch with friends at a local tea shop.  It was fun.  The vanilla scones were delicious, though rather small.

I suppose it depends on how you count it, but if you include all the time I spent poring through the Silmarillion collecting information about "light" in connection to Beren, Fëanor, and Thingol, it was about 12 hours of work before I got things into shape for final editing and proof-reading.
