Londonward

Had a meeting with my personal tutor today. He congratulated me on my results and said to strongly think about Masters’ programmes, specifically highlighting Oxford and Cambridge as having a possibility of funding for EU students applying, which really is the only way I could manage to afford one. It would be another year of hell but on the other hand it would be Oxbridge and it couldn’t possibly hurt job prospects, right?

The only problem is that I have, like, a week to decide if I want to apply this year. I had already thought that I’d try to get a job for a year or two and go for a master’s after getting some money and experience, but now he recommended going to it directly.

I also handed over the reins of our student society to a new generation of (mostly postgraduate) students. They seemed really keen on making it a good society, which will benefit everyone. In a way, I feel almost sad to have passed on the torch but I will hang out at the first meetings at least, and get them up to speed.

Now I just need to get up to speed on the reading.
