WOOHOO! It's 3:30pm as I type this after finishing my final exam.

April 16, 2008, I'm officially FINISHED MY UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES! YAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYYAYAYAYYAY!!!!

It was 2 days short of 4 years ago that I first hinted at going back to school. Then on April 29th, I said I was going to finish what I started.

And now I've done it. Fuck you doubters, especially those inside my head, I did it just like I said I would, and I would be screaming my head off right now in celebration if I wasn't writing this inside a computer lab at UVic (I left my computer at home).

Now is as good as time as any to announce that I have been provisionally accepted into the Faculty of Graduate Studies at UVic (subject to grades, but that's a formality), and I'll be starting my work towards a Masters degree (MSc) in Computer Science this September!

It's going to be a long summer, I'm looking forward to this as much as I looked forward to going back to school in the first place.

Now, it's time to PARTY!
