Although I have become accustomed to disappointment with my final year at university, graduation arrangements have proved the final straw. Traditionally held in Swansea’s Brangwyn Hall, the graduation is supposed to be the highlight of our university lives. My parents both graduated from Swansea University (or University College, Swansea as it was back then) in [...]

The last time I posted a proper update on this blog it was June. Since that’s quite a long time I thought I’d post a little bit about what I’ve been up to since then before resuming some sense of normality. So, here is a quick – and completely uninteresting – update: July – Attended [...]

As you may have noticed, my blog has been rather neglected recently. This is because I’ve been completely snowed under with work including several pieces of coursework, weekend lectures and the 24th Annual Computer Science Colloquium in Gregynog. For those that don’t know, the Comp Sci department at Swansea organise a trip to Gregynog in [...]

A few weeks ago I made a post about how busy my first week and a half of term was. Well, 3 weeks later and it hasn’t really slowed down, in fact, it’s gotten even busier. Work wise, we’ve had a few pieces of coursework that have had to be handed in already, including a [...]
