Sometimes stuff happens when I don't expect it and I get upset. This is not one of those times.

So I was under the impression results were due out on Monday, until I got a text from a friend at about 10:30pm asking me how I'd done. Cue freaking out and trembling all over in a fit of anxiety and 'wtf?!' while I went to find out how I'd done.

While my individual module marks aren't up, which is rather irritating as I really want to know how my dissertation scored, I'm pretty ecstatic to be able to say that I am now the proud holder of a 2:1 BSc Hons degree in orthoptics(!)

I was half convinced I'd fail because of tempting fate through having a job lined up and ready to go, so this is a really fantastic result - exactly what I wanted. And considering that this year (70% of my degree) was almost entirely based on essays, my worst type of exam, I'm pretty damn chuffed.

TL;DR version: OMGYAY! VICTORY DANCE!

I emailed my new boss pretty much as soon as I'd calmed down :D I had been trying not to think that they'd regret giving me the permanent post and the other guy the one-year post because I was going to fail, so it was a really nice surprise!

Hooray! I'm sure they'll be delighted :D
