    Can't believe I've been here for two years.

    Wow. Two terms of teaching to go.
    I know - it's bizarre. At the same time though, I feel like one more year and I'll be ready to move on. Will miss uni loads - the people and the course particularly.

    2 years on. Am I more mature? No.

    I'm so excited for freshers' week

    I'mma do my bit to reinforce the theory that students just get pissed all the time on tax payers money.

    Bleeding first years don't know how good they've got it.

    When I was a Fresher, I had to live in a hole in the ground covered with leaky tarpaulin, walk three miles through a howling blizzard to lectures, uphill both ways, eight days a week, to 8:15AM Maths lectures, on a budget of 50p per month.

    And, by god- that was luxury compared with some. At least I wasn't in Halifax.

    Well, then.

    It's been a fine ride, I'd say. Congratulations to everybody graduating this year!

    Got my degree (1st - somehow) will be around for my MA next year (thank God for the AHRC as the other university I got into wasn't so nice). So good

    Very well done considering our bizarre classic degree. What's your masters in? And good going on securing funding.

    I was 2% away from a first -_-
