    Have a great summer and good luck with your MA, Anna


    Just got my results back from the university: I passed!

    All's done and dusted. It was hard going at times but... I am glad I persevered.

    Thank you all who have been listening to me patiently and offering support and encouragment throughout the year.

    When should we have the graduation party for those who finished their studies?

    I am yet to receive my results from

    International Studies

    Politics - Fanatics and Fundamentalists

    History - Medieval (Bad choice, but I chose it because I needed to do a history in first year to study a second year history in my second year, obviously, and i'm dying to study the American Civil War)

    And Criminology

    Hello strangers!

    Congrats on the great results Scher! And everyone else whose good news I've missed.

    My summer semester has been ridiculously busy Hopefully with my six-week course finished, I'll have a little more time to be around!
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    So now after I do my first year at GPRC I'm transferring to Vancouver, British Columbia instead of Camrose, Alberta. Better forests for a forestry science student (redwoods!). The place gets so much precipitation that it's technically considered a rainforest. I'm VERY excited, the terrain should be much better than stupid farmland Alberta. The tuition at UBC is a couple of hundred cheaper than U of A, too.

    The biggest reason why I'm going though is because David is going to take film studies in Van and I don't want to be separate from him. *cringe* I know, call me a sappy, soft-hearted woman. I just like him is all!

    @Schere: is that the be all and end all of your studies at uni or are you going back next year?

    Thanks Everyone! My score is the equivalent to a B so i'm well chuffed!

    I'm currently doing SA188- Archaeology and the Science of Investigation.
    In October i'm doing A180- Heritage, Whose Heritage?
    and in November i'm starting A150- Voices and Texts.

    I'm thinking of doing Geology instead of the literature course so i might start a course on Plate Techtonics (my favourite!) in Feb. when i get the the results for all those courses i'll achieve an Open Cert in Higher Education. Then on to the Diploma and then the Degree! I think doing it step by step is better for me. At least this way i'll achieve something if i only end up doing a few years.

    How are the courses going, Niamh?

    After much pondering and hesitation, I have finally decided to start my MA(Edu) through OU. They seem to be the only university with enough flexibility to accommodate everything else in my life (like LitNet!)

    I have enrolled my first course, which will be starting in October (I need to send them my uni diploma etc but i don't think there would be a problem).

    Can't wait to receive my books!

    Knew you wouldn't be able to resist the next stage, Scher! Good luck to you, also to Niamh and to everyone else starting new courses this term.

    Me? I'm going back to Welsh - part three of a five part course, each part takes two years - they take us through it very slowly and gently! However I think we will be worked harder this year, the tutor proposes talking in Welsh for most of the lesson - think I'd better the learn the Welsh for 'Would you mind repeating that, please?'
