Results!

I just got my MA results.

I got a Pass.

As Camberwell only gives two marks - Pass and Distinction - I don't feel as bad as I could have done. I am having some level of academic angst, but then, I didn't really need a distinction. Not for what I'm doing next. I just need to damn certificate for my job, and then for accreditation. Still, it would have been nice to feel like the special shiny clever person for once, instead of a bit of an also-ran. However, I shall remind myself that I've not been as committed to this MA as I could have been - I've run larp games, I've been volunteering at a museum 2-3 days per week, and I've been bouncing around the countryside role playing. It's why, as a rule, I've tended not to get Firsts, or Distinctions, or the like.

Still, I do feel a bit 'meh'. But hopefully that will pass and soon I'll just remember that I've got the MA, and now I can move on to the new job. I just hope that all does come together.

An MA from Oxford is still a shiny clever person thing to have.

I got an MPhil from Oxford. It was an Archaeology MPhil. This is an MA from Camberwell College of Art. It is in Conservation.

Neither are good enough for phd funding, which makes me sad. :(

Ah, my mistake. ;)

You can still do a phd though? Every cloud has a silver lining.
