ravenI got a 2:1. Am pleased. Parents really won't be, if I know them. I would have liked a first, but am Not That Sort of Person. No, really. It's to do with, well, I could've got a first, but not without doing at least four times more work than I did do during my degree, and I did not sit around and do nothing during my degree. It's just, I am not an intuitively awesome PPEist, I am not that smart and I am not particularly academic. It's to do with, not having directed plays and danced around Oxford in the middle of the night and made caipirinhas at the drop of a hat and all such manner of glorious things.
Anyway. It's a very wet and windy day, and I am going to San Francisco tonight.

It's easy to feel defined by the degree you get, but when you look at the friends you've made and the experiences you've had, you realise that you're a far richer richer person for them. Besides a 2:1 from Oxford is still blimmin' awesome!
