You may remember my post a few months back where I guessed from the module results that I probably had a first class degree. Well, now that I've returned from Canada I opened the letter containing my results, and it is now confirmed I have been awarded a first!
Having pursued a programme of study and having satisfied the examiners in
Computing and Information Technology
Dylan Aneurin Evans
was awarded the degree of
Bachelor of Science
with
First Class Honours
Yay!!!
Thought I would share something with you lot. Back in 2004 I composed 4 music tracks. I used "Dance eJay 3", which was ancient even then. At the time I was in halls at university, and doing Electronic Engineering (before I switched to Computing). You can listen to them below, and you can also download the MP3s as well if you want. My personal favourite is "Copious Copii" due to the jazzy trumpet samples. Let me know what you think, and enjoy!
Thought I'd mention that my final university results have been tallied. However, as I'm in Canada I'll have to wait a bit for the official final verdict. That said, it has been revealed to me that I got 67% in my final year project. By my calculations this equates to a first class degree (based on this and the results from my other modules); so fingers crossed this is the case.
On a side note, I hope you all like the new layout/design for the blog. I grabbed the template for it from here.
Well, at long last I've completed my university final year project! And I tell you, it wasn't easy!
I started a project at the beginning of the academic year, but could not muster the motivation needed to get on with it.
Eventually it was decided that it was going nowhere, and that I should start a different project after my final exams. Furthermore, due to extenuating circumstances, I would also not be penalised for doing the project later.
The project was basically a web application for a two player strategy games system developed by one of the university lecturers. I submitted the report last week, and did my viva last Wednesday.
So it's over, it's finally over! No more coursework or exams for the foreseeable future, awesome!!!
Well, it's been an eventful few months. The highlights include my best mate's wedding, and my 24th birthday.
My long-term buddy Lawrence is now married! It was the first time I'd been to a church wedding, and it was very elegant. Lawrence and his wife Leah were really happy, and as you can imagine very busy as well. The reception was fun, and there was plenty of delicious buffet food! I guess it's my turn now!
That was a couple of weeks ago, but more recently it was my 24th birthday. This year I decided that I wanted a good meal out with friends, and a kickass pissup. The meal was at Nando's (an excellent Portuguese themed chicken restaurant) and the food was (as always) awesome! Originally the plan for after the meal was to go drinking in the Guildford town centre. However, it turned out that my birthday coincided with the house-warming of some friends of mine. So it was suggested that the house-warming party become a house-warming/birthday party/leaving do. The leaving do was also for myself as I'm heading off to Canada in a little over a week for an entire year! (See my Canada Blog for more details).
The party was a lot of fun and we didn't leave until about 8 in the morning! Now that's proper partying!
