Dear Students,

"You will receive your degree classification on Tuesday."

HOLE-YYYYYYYYYYYY SHIIIIIITTTTT

I've never been this nervous about a result before. I mean, I know I'm more than likely going to get a 2.1, but there's always the last minute doubts that I'm sure everyone has; "did I do enough work?" "did I answer the essays to how they wanted?" etc. This nervousness completely surmounts the nerves I had during my GCSE and A Level results waiting days. I know I've done well enough, and did really well in first semester, so why should I be worried? Well, I just am...and I rarely get nervous, but then again this result may affect my whole career in music.

Time for an update then. So on Thursday, I woke up and just lazed around all day. Watched the new entrants to Big Brother come in, for curiosity and to see if it will be interesting. Well, it'll most certainly be interesting, with a black albino and a blind man in it. I'm unsure how I feel about the blind man idea, whilst it's good of BB to not put in the obvious mid 20 something from London with the latest hair style and fashion sense; it also gives me the idea that they're getting desperate; and pulling off the disability card now. The general line-up looks very unmatched, compared to the previous years where the group seemed to "fit". I'll probably just watch it whenever I'm bored this year.

Yesterday, I woke up, and went into Belfast. I registered with Apple Recruitment, who seemed really nice and very interested in my musical ambitions, then I got ready to go to Bangor to meet Robbie. We just hung out for a while, and went to 2 bars, then drank at his flat. Then, I came home, chilled, watched Superbad for the millionth time then went to bed. And now it's Saturday, and I'm not sure what I'm doing tonight; but I do know I'm going to a pub tonight to meet some friends who I haven't seen in a while! I'm pretty excited despite not being able to spend much. Then tomorrow will consist of a band practice! This will be the first time the band has played with me actually behind a kit, so I'm hoping that it all works out good, which I'm sure it will, given the already good early chemistry I seem to have with the band.

As for the week ahead - I have to go for a dole interview, and who knows what else.

Iain
