    Oops, didn't quite update when I said I would :o

    Exams are over, hooray! Not 100% happy with my performance, made a few very silly mistakes and should have been better prepared. We'll see what happens :/ STILL waiting on some coursework being marked, after exams! It's quite funny because I suggested it would be about 2 weeks before we got it back and the lecturer scoffed and said 'No, no!' but we are now on day 8 :rotfl:

    Need to start researching seriously for Honours project. I just don't know how I'm going to pick something to do for a year. I don't know whether to stick with what I know I enjoy, or try to learn new skills? :/

    Spent the past couple of days relaxing, doing a few things I needed to, but a couple of lazy slow days.

    Got all my coursework back now, so sitting at:
    95% - coursework worth 50%
    80% - coursework worth 50%
    90% - coursework worth 40%

    Need to keep above 80% to get grades I want, not sure I've achieved that. We'll see!

    I got through to the next stage of internship :o
    There's now roughly 2 people for each internship, but some are more competitive that others so will need to be strategic about picking ones. We have to write cover letters, which I've never done, so bit scary! At least I have time to do some research.

    I'm sure there was other stuff but I've forgotten :o

    Hope everyone is doing well. 9 days! When did that happen?!

    Many happy returns Cal, I hope you had a wonderful day and are enjoying the holidays?

    Did Santa bring you anything of note?

    Thanks Ed, I did and I am. Went to OH's family for Xmas dinner over the weekend, and my family for Xmas day. Not playing favourites, but my family's Xmas dinner was the best :D

    Santa brought me lots of chocolate, lots of money and a game that is causing me to swear like a sailor.
    Chocolate I have plans for, money, I don't know yet. Buy pretty things, save, invest, OP, mixture?!

    Glad to see you're having a good time. :)

    Mario Kart? Mrs E nearly banned me from that one due to creative swearing!
