15 hours to go...

Well its almost over.

3 years of my life wasted ;)

At 10am tomorrow I hand in my final major work, which is the last part of my assessed degree work. I will be a free man (almost).

Can't quite believe it! Four years ago, I tentatively signed up to some saturday courses in photography and off the back of that applied too and was accepted into University to study photography full time.

Now, that time has passed at an alarming rate and the end is firmly in sight.

I am rather calm too, hardly any last minute stressing or anything!

To be fair, I have managed my time quite well this year and so everything has falled nicely into place. Of course, there is always more you could do, but I have done my best, or as near to it as possible and so there is no more that can be done.

I am quite pleased with my final work too, its looking good. As a suffering artists, I wouldn't say I am happy with it completely...but then you shouldn't be. I think being unsatisfied with your work makes you keep trying.

All barr the shouting, I am a free man.

Of course, me being me, I am going to keep working until the end of term. There is the exhibition to set up and then I plan to make the best use of the facilities whilst I still can by scanning as many negatives as I can and printing spare copies of my work ready to enter competitions and such like with.

Our graduate exhibition opens on the 2nd of June to the public, but I will give more details of that soon.

I believe I get my marks on the 23rd of June and then have the graduation ceremony at the end of July.

After that...its the life of a poor struggling artist for me and I can't wait! A whole new set of challenges and finally something resembling a normal life back!
