So final year has started and I have done a little reading on my subjects at hand and I have started work on some tutorials. I am also still having a social life but my sleep is a little bit reduced. I am looking at taking up some dancing and football as well as continue my archery. I was asked if I wanted to got to a knitting club of which I would have loved to if I hadn't made previous arrangements. Need to look at going though should be fun.
I am trying this year to not only get round to doing more social activities and improve my grade, to hopefully graduate with a first, but also looking at developing more technical knowledge in areas outside of my modules. I have spoken to some of my friends and we have spoke about a few projects such as a wearable technology. Also kinda on the technical side we are already planning the raft for next years charity raft race at Glengower hotel.
Lastly as though I probably won't update my blog a lot I will try to keep you all informed of whats going on or any topics I find interesting. So look forward to hopefully some interesting reads.
A nice little blog about my general life and thought/ideas I feel like rambling on about.

Finally got round to this
Well it took me long enough to getting round to writing this so here it goes.
I have finished my industrial placement at IBM and it was the most amazing year I have ever had. I did things that I never thought I would be able to do such as teach, I lead a team developing an educational activity and learnt so much that I look forward to taking into my final year. Not to mention some of the amazing people I have met while being there who I wish all the best for their future endeavors. Now I have to wait to hear if I have got the graduate position and apply to tons more graduate positions.
So currently I am at my parents home for a couple weeks before heading back to Aberystwyth for my final year *trembles with fear* which should be, interesting and very busy. While at home I am sorting through all my stuff and catching up with my friends back here which is nice as I haven't seen them in ages. Been playing football with them on Tuesday evenings which is good as I am trying to keep my fitness up. I need to go for a run but that is a problem for future me.
Next week I have a wedding to go to that my friend has invited me to so that should be fun but the night before I might be camping with friends so it could be a busy week. I am looking forward to putting my suit back on and looking all fancy. Then off to Aberystwyth the next week to get all my stuff unpacked and get myself properly settled in.
I have already seen where I will be living and it is a lovely place and I can wait to live there. Going to try and enjoy my last year as much as possible as I am going to miss Aberystwyth when I leave, if I could I would never leave. I am planning on joining many socials and getting to know more people also need to speak to my year head to see about the possibility of some teaching experience.
One last note, if you have made it this far and you have a graduate job going or know somewhere there is a graduate job in computer science going please let me know I would be ever so grateful :) .
