Graduation

Postby Scellanis » Wednesday 15 June 2005 7:23:29pm

I just thought I would announce that I now have a B.Sc. Honours Second Class (Division I) degree in Pure Mathematics from St Andrews University.

I passed all my exams and needed no extra years... *sighs* I am no longer a student. Of course this means I shall be away next week.

Saturday I get my hair cut
Sunday we go to St Andrews
Tuesday we get lunch in the Math department then my ceremony is at 2:30pm followed by a Garden Party at 4:30pm.
Friday is the Graduation Ball with a dinner and a ceilidh, a buffet breakfast at 1pm etc.

I don't graduate in the same ceremony as Prince William though but I suppose he may go to the ball. He got a 2:1 degree too in Geography.

So yeah...I have to get a job now... :o

find prince william for me, and smack a great big one on his lips for me. then you'll probably be dragged out by security, arrested for manhandling the future king, and your picture will be on the front page of the sun. you'll be famous (as a crazy person) and whilst protesting your innocence loudly to the police beating you with their batons feel free to yell, 'thestral made me do it'. yay my name would be in the papers. :grin:

Well done. I never liked pure maths, but I suppose it's better than mechanics!!

Now for the big wide world and the career ladder!!

Maths, how could you do it???

I have a while before I graduate actually about 4 1/2 years before I get out of school, that will be so sad!!!

Congratulations, Scellanis, well done! :D :D :D Hope you have a wonderful time at your graduation.

:drums: :drums: :drums:

I keep my fingers crossed for you so that you find yourself a job soon.

By the way, I'm graduating too, on June 28th (master degree in Slovak language and literature and English language and literature), so I'm no longer a student too. :-?

Math, wow! Congratulations and good luck finding a job. You might be the next John Nash, but be careful with secret services. :)

I'm no longer a student either, but that's because I quit. Have to find a new subject now :-?
