Well, my second year at Swansea has finally come to a close.  All my modules have finished, all my coursework has been handed in and my exams have all been sat (at last).  My future at the university now remains firmly in the hands of the lecturers.  Let’s hope I did well enough in the exams to get through.

On Monday evening after our last exam, James, Ian, Sarah, Gareth, Helen and I all headed out for a meal at Frankie and Bennie’s on Wind Street.  Had a very nice meal albeit slightly expensive – but it was a celebration so what the hell!  We followed this by a few games of pool at a quiet pub in which Gareth slaughtered me twice – although he did seem to be making up rules as he went along.  I’m not a regular pool player so I wasn’t really sure what was legal and what wasn’t.

At this point the group separated and James, Helen and Gareth headed off while Ian, Sarah and I went in search of Que Passa – a cocktail bar.  A few drinks were had there before heading off to Mambo – another cocktail bar on the Kingsway.  By this point we were all feeling a little tipsy.  We finally ended up in Envy nightclub where we were joined by several other comp sci students and spent the rest of the night.

I spent the next morning recovering from a rather nice hangover.  Even so, it was well worth it – a good end to exams.

Of course end of exam celebrations have yet to come to an end, we still have the fun of the Swansea University Summer Ball 2006 (which a few of us are staffing) on Friday, and of course Escape into the Park 2006 on Saturday.  I am prepared with a set of band new batteries ready to take lots of photos of both events.

It is rather hard to believe that I have finished my second year here.  I am now half way through my course!  Very very scary.

Until next time
