Grad-u-ation time, come on!

GraduationWell, I’m officially free, now. I’ve finished my undergraduate degrees (Science & Information Systems), and officially graduated! Of course, now there’s my two post graduate courses to finish, and a new job too!

I came across a website recently that outline graduation etiquette, and it seems to say that you guys should all be buying me gifts. So, if anyone would like to buy me anything off that list - a popcorn maker, nice new watch, some “internet services” or the good ol’ cash/cheque will do just fine. And, of course, to anyone that does get me any of these items, I’ll happily provide the required thank you note.

Oh, and about the new job - I’m back at Uni, but now they’re paying ME! How times change…

Freedom

“Freedom?” by Marco CassèWell, I’m (unofficially) free!

I have just finished my final undergraduate essay ever! Sure, I’ve gotta wait until results come out to make sure I’ve passed everything (I’m sure I have), and then I’ve gotta wait for some official notification that I’ve met the requirements of my degree, but… who cares about all that stuff? The only thing I need to do now is turn up to graduation!

Phew! What a relief.

Ben Folds is a Fake

Ben Conducting Before you get all hysterical (I know I would after reading that title - Ben Folds is awesome!), he’s not really a fake - but this guy is.

Why is it that one always manages to find so many interesting distracting sites during one’s exam/essay period? Of course, I use the indefinite third person intentionally, as I’m definitely not talking about myself. But, if one was talking about oneself, perhaps one might have stumbled upon a site like Improv Everywhere, and discovered some funny pranks.

One’s favourites:

  • Ben Folds Fake
  • McDonalds Bathroom Attendant - I (during a time when it wasn’t an exam period, so it might actually have been me) remember seeing this one a while ago.
  • No Pants, 2k6 - Where 8 of them got arrested for …. who knows. Last time I checked it’s not illegal to walk around in much more revealing bathing suits.
