Hi guys!
I haven't been very active on the forums recently, and I've been pretty sickly to boot! Sorry everyone
. However, I have some wonderful news.
Whilst I've not been as well as I could be the past year, I have finished my college course of Games Development. This week, I received my grades of said course, where I successfully achieved a Triple Distinction - D,D,D. I needed a D,M,M to get into Uni, and a D,D,M to receive a special scholarship. I was predicted to receive a D,D,M, and this is the first time I have ever smashed my predicted grades! Hurrah!
This means that - come September - I will be going to The University of Sunderland (UK) to study Games Software Development. And even better, I'll be moving near my partner, Tabion, who I have been with for almost four years.
I should be a little more active now, especially over August, and constantly updating my character profiles. But I'd really like to congratulate everyone in the UK (and also in other countries!) who have received their grades and academic achievements.
Happy Roleplaying!

Oh, wow! That is quite the accomplishment! Congrats on finishing that and can't wait to see you around more. 
Great to hear, Experience! 
I liked talking with you in chat, and it'll be great having you around the site even more.
