a little update: Graduation

Yesterday, I became an official NTU graphic design graduate! Little did I know when all my agemates were going off to university that 4 years later, I, too, would be starting. Initially, it was such a scary thought but I am extremely happy with the decision I made and I stick by that. Not only am I a graduate but I was awarded the Chartered Society of Designers Student of the Year award - which was a pleasant surprise as I didn't even know such an award existed (I got the email at 10pm on a random weekday whilst I was in bed).

I've learnt so much over the past 3 years, I took part in a lot of extracurricular activities and really involved myself as much as I could at uni, made long-life friends from the very start and of course, there were ups and downs but that's just part of life so we move on.

It would be a monumental task to thank everyone individually, but I’d like to express particular thanks to my magnificent coursemates, tutors, and technicians. You are all amazing. Stay in touch - I'm sure I'll be harassing you for a job at some stage.

Not bad for a lady who completely changed careers and got a load of backlash.

Onto the next adventure!
