It’s done. Over. Finished. Finally.
I don’t think I’ll miss the exams, or the assignment deadlines but I will miss being at university. There’s something to be admired about people who give up time with their loved ones, turn down going out with friends night after night, to pay for the privilege to learn.
Anyway, I’m not feeling particularly articulate so I’ll stop there.
Oh and before I forget there’s the little matter of the “great average” I was hoping for. I finished 84.675% – a high distinction when rounded :) Of course these things are very subjective; for my part I’m pleased.

I start a beginners course in Spanish this Monday. I’ve missed the first 2 lessons, I hope I catch up with the rest of the group.
This place came recommended by my Columbian hair dresser and is pretty close to home. They charge $180 for an 8 week term with one class a week and each class goes for 1.5 hours. I neglected to inquire about the class size, oh well.
Wish me luck!
