correct sentences or not

00I hope that I did the job correctly. -- I feel 'hope' goes with the present or future tense like 'I hope you have a good day', and not the past tense.02br

00I am starting to feel as if/as though there is light at the end of the tunnel. -- 'as if' or 'as though' is likely to produce (should produce??) the subjunctive mood, but I have a problem when it is followed with the phrase 'there is'. 0-
