And I am graduated.
And Rav and Bob are married.
I have been congratulated more in the last few days than ever in my life, which is nice :) It turned out I got a prize aswell. The Arthur Hinton Read memorial prize which after a bit of searching I found out is for "distinction in Pure mathematics". So there we go. It was great to see my dad, brother, Emsy, grandparents, auntie uncle and cousin and also very nice of my dad to pay for a 12 person meal in the Vine Leaf!
I'm a little sick of celebrating, what with the almost constant partying and drinking I've HAD to do since the end of term but I can't complain really! I remind myself that this is probably the last summer I'll be able to waste my time so enjoyably.
I've almost got a job, either in the aquarium cafe or in St Leonards library (guess which one I'd prefer). So that will bring in some beer money and make me feel less guilty.
I need to go down to Liverpool at some point to visit my dudes. I meant to go down for Hell's birthday which is next weekend but I think I should wait til I've got my shifts and stuff. Or maybe thats just me putting things off. I'd need to make sure Ol, Dan and anyone else can be around so I can get them all at once. And I do really want to go and visit Al in Germany...
I've been having driving lessons too, free from a trainee driving instructor - score! Its all a bit scary.
Colva was telling me about her and Martins' plans for my first PhD year. I take it that means the funding is coming, I'm just waiting on the official letter. She also asked me if I wanted some maths to do in the summer. Yay.
That'll do. See you in the pub.
