It's finally over!! No more classes. Turned in my final 4 assignments yesterday the 16th, after 2 weeks of non-stop reading and writing. Weirdest thing happened though, got home at 8:30pm from hanging out with some mates, and at 11pm this guy I know calls me and offers me a position working with him doing health and safety consultancy in Nigeria, part of a contract with some oil company. University ends at 5pm, and 6 hours later I have people calling me trying to hire me? Anyway, this dude has some family in Nigeria, so he probably got the contract through some nepotism back-scratching shit and has no idea how to do the job (he does real estate here in London), so that's why he called me. So I'm like great, I can let this dude and his wife go to Nigeria and do a horrible job and probably leave a bunch of health/safety holes, or I can go with them and try to do it right. Talked to my Nigerian friend today, and she said that they don't really kill the people and take their oil (probably did that a long time ago so there's no one left to oppose them f'ing bastards), and it's pretty safe as long as you're not working on the rigs, so I don't know. Weird..
