Well I’m there at last, and I managed to pull a 2:1 out of the hat. My dissertation result of 65% must have pulled my grade up a fair few marks, which I’m really glad about. I spent many a sleepless night on it and without a few key people (who know who they are) I definitely wouldn’t have gotten as far as I did.

I’ve just landed a job at the NHS doing 3rd line technical support, or more precisely phone support for near on 1,000. It’s only temporary for now as I’m still thinking of moving to Bristol at the end of summer

There are a few projects in the pipeline, such as “The Magazine” which is primarily a web based venture covering topics from the arts to psycho-geography. If you don’t know what psycho-geography is head on over for an explanation from Luke. There is another project in the pipeline which is advertising based, however that’s all I’ve been told so far about the job specification so it’s anyone’s guess at this point that the system will do.

Finally, my passing out ceremony is on the 18th of July and is broadcast live from the University which you can get to from <this link> if you’re bored and fancy watching people look silly in gowns.

It’s all printed and bound a day early. I’m quite pleased in a way it’s all over.

The project has taught me a decent amount of Ruby on Rails, however I’m not planning on making a career out of it just yet.It’s been far more interesting than many other programming projects I’ve taken part in, in the past 4 years.

It’s quite strange to think that my 4 years at University will be up within a months time. I’m looking to go into a customer facing job, interfacing between programmers and and the public. So if you’re hiring give my CV a quick look over.
