Exams and houses

Exam results Went into the department today to double check my results, sure enough there was the line saying I’d passed the second year. Woohoo. I also got a hold of my individual results for each module, which are as follows: Algorithms and Data Structures – 43% Architectural Support for Languages and Operating Systems – […]

Passed the second year

I haven’t double-checked to confirm this, but according to Danny I’ve passed all my second year exams with no resits scheduled. Woohoo! Apparently I won’t get my individual results for a couple of days (not sure why) but I don’t really care at the moment. All I need now is a house for next year […]

Run away, run away!

For someone who’s supposed to be on “holiday”, I seem to be remarkably busy… Trip to Birmingham Andy, one of my best friends from college, got in touch with me on Thursday saying that he’d be down in Birmingham on Friday if I wanted to meet up. Given that I had nothing else planned and […]

Four down, one to go

Quick catchup on what’s been happening recently, mostly exams unfortunately: Software engineering Didn’t do too badly in this one, there was a nice question about change control using CVS and unit testing which was worth about 15 marks, so I think I’ll have done quite well on that one. The other question in that section […]

Dutch also reject constitution

Just three days after the surprise result in France, the people of the Netherlands have also decided to show the proposed EU Constitution the door, by an even bigger vote of about 63% against based on a turnout of about 62% (slightly lower than that of France).

French voters reject EU charter via BBC News Although there have been rumours and polls going round for several weeks that the French might say ‘non’ to the proposed EU Constitution, I was surprised this evening to hear that the exit polls were predicting a 55% vote against the proposals and now after 85% of […]
