I thought I might share with everyone a little something. I just got my grades for uni. I only did one subject this semester (it's to do with the fact I am doing a Masters part-time, so I would have had 3 subjects instead of two last semester had I done them full time). And guess what? Lats semester, I got two HDs, the highest grades (High Distinction). And this semester, I was worried about getting a really good grade (something I haven't before) in order to be in the running for a PhD scholarship. And guess what?

I

Got

An

HD!! !! !! !

PhD scholarship, here I come! Well, gotta do a damned fine thesis first.
