Gareth Western, BSc (Hons)
They think it’s all over… It is now!!
Today (ok, actually it was last night) I found out my degree classification. I got a 2:2 in the end, which is what i’ve been expecting. I’m a little miffed that I didn’t manage to pull it up to a 2:1, but a 2:2 from the University of Bath is still pretty good… and considering I went the whole 4 years without selling out and doing any slacker modules such as a beginner language option or a 1st year module in my final year, I’m feeling pretty good.
I only hope I can convince employers that i’m smarter than my degree might first imply 
I coulda had [a first] class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let’s face it.
Marlon Brando (1924 - 2004). R.I.P.
PS I don’t really think I’m a bum… the quote just fit nicely
Anyway… right now i’ve got a killer stomach ache so i’m gonna have a nap. More later!

Damn those slackers! You’ve proved yourself to be a true failed mathematician without having to cheat and do management
Congrats 
PS (Re the stomach ache) hahahahahahahahahha. Now don’t make a PMT joke ever again (or at least don’t wonder why you get a slap when you do!)

Er….in my own true much-misinterpreted style that comment sounded rather rude! It was meant as a joke, honest! sooooorrrryyyyyy! You’d have thought I’d have learnt by now!

Congratulations! You’re finally done - and I’m finally home..
It’s a shame you didn’t get a 2:1, but in the long run I doubt it’ll make a difference..
Now go out and show those employers what you’re made of..
