Commemoration Day 2006
November 2, 2006 8:07 pm UniI officially graduated last Wednesday. After studying physics for 4 years I was awarded the the Associate of the Royal College of Science (ARCS) and Master’s in Science (MSci) degree. Having found a job since after exams that was also my first “holiday”. Didn’t get many pictures because I gave my camera to my dad, who didn’t really know how to use it, but here are the efforts of the professionals:
It was nice to see old friends again, people who you suffered with as well as laughed with over those long hours working on projects. What’s nice about the graduation was the lovely Royal Albert Hall. It’s incredibly beautiful inside and we even had a choir and orchestra. Shame I was there last year (at another friend’s graduation) so it seems I had to suffer a graduation twice - it’s not the most exciting thing having 800 names read out over 2 hours. At least this time I got my 4 seconds of fame! Mind you the whole day did cost me more than £200…
