Four years of pain equals to...

... a BSc in Computer with first class honours! Yep, after working hard, stressing and being depressed for four long years I've finally got some good news! It was a real shock when I found out what I got!

The day started as always, me waking up to the alarm and then me turning the damn thing off, this time though I noticed a message on my mobile phone. When I read it I thought "oh crap, the day of my pre mid-age judgment has arrived, this is either going to help me or screw me over!" I got up and ran down to the computer, which was stupidly scanning something and since it is Vista I can't tell it to stop. So I started up Firefox, whilst battling against the computer, and when I looked on the results page I had in red writing "You cannot view your results as you have outstanding payments." It was something along those lines and I was a bit annoyed! I rang the finance office and asked them what the deal is? Found out the Isle of Man Government, who are paying for my fees, haven't paid the last semesters fees. So they said that I'd be able to get me results tomorrow once they've updated my status. I couldn't wait for tomorrow, I checked a few minutes later to find that my results were now available to me. I quickly scrolled down to the bottom of the page where I found this:

The Board of Examiners has confirmed at a meeting held on 19 June 2008 that you be recommended to the Academic Board, via the University's Secretary and Registrar for the award of:

Bachelor Of Science in Computer Studies
With First Class Honours

What I thought next was "WOOHOO!"

Now I'm going to relax and think about where I'm going to go on holiday to with my uni housemates.
