hi Zak, thank you for asking. My exam is on Oct 29th (next Monday) and
then on Nov 14th (2 weeks later). Apart from that, I have to do presentation
for my master thesis proposal on Monday (29 Oct).
Anyway I received a very good news yesterday that I almost exploded (too
happppppy!). I got an email from a professor who agrees to accept me as
a PhD student starting next September (no smiley icons that could express
my happiness). That means I will be able to stay in Germany for 3 more
additional years and got financial allowance as well. However, nothing is sure
yet, as I have to be able to finish my master study on time (Aug '08) and
maintain my current GPA.

Congratulations! You have taken another small by significant step on the road to career slavery. You can look forward to endless nights of panicked writing, abrasive ego-damaged supervisors and a carnivorous body of peers with axes to grind.
...although, seriously, what in?
