got a degree today
Yesterday i designed & published a ‘congratulations’ image on this blog which was created with today in mind. That could have gone horribly wrong of course, but it didn’t. For someone who does that sort of thing so often, it rarely does go wrong 
I like to think i can accurately assess myself… i think it’s an important skill – knowing what you’re capable of and selling yourself just right… not over selling, not underselling.
You’ll often hear me complain about college and the current facilities. Today, i had a look around a brand new multi million euro development on campus which will house DKIT‘s computing department (amongst others) starting in September 2010.
A couple of weeks ago i blogged about itisdown.com – a new website i’m working on. Since then i’ve been busy working on smemon.com but itisdown.com is now ready to go live next week.
This coming monday i’ll be starting back at college after Christmas for the last time in this current degree. So far, i’ve taken and passed 30 modules and now i’ll have just 6 left to complete in order to pick up a “Bachelor of Science in Computing in Applications & Support“.

What happens after that all hinges on me passing these last 6 modules, so now is not the time to be focusing on anything other than these 6 modules… at least until i’ve weighed them all up and worked out how hard or not i’ll need to work in order to pass them all…
Take out rag week in early march & 2 weeks for easter and i’ve 13 weeks of college to go until exams. We’d normally have another mid term in february and a week off before exams in May, but this year we have no mid-terms which means it’s a hell of a long year for everyone… an extra 3 or 4 weeks in college -v- last year or the year before.
