it ends

My time at Portsmouth has come to an end. Three years have flown by with help of all the new friends I have made and housemates I have had the pleasure of living with (well they’ve had the pleasure of living with me!).

My finals have resulted in me having a 65.7 third year average which I am fairly pleased with as it gives me a solid 2:1.

I think I have enjoyed every day in Portsmouth, there is always something happening and thanks to a fantastic rowing club and three awesome crews I have rowed with, there has never been a dull moment. This years rowing has certainly been the best (currently leading the JS championship). I joined UPRC a novice and will leave a senior whilst also having the delight of being Vice-President for the past two years which enabled me to enjoy and have a laugh everyday at training and not forgetting the drunken UPRC Wednesday’s in the union.

All is not over just yet though. This Saturday I get to go on holiday with Alice, the most wonderful girl I have ever met, and would have never met if I had not studied at Portsmouth. After the holiday I get to enter a few more races before I depart my JS crew and also get to attend my graduation and grad ball where I will officially become a graduate in
BSc(Hons)(Econ) Economics, Finance & Banking.

This is all splendid stuff.

It will be sad not to be living in Portsmouth after building a life here, but on a philosophical note, I know there is plenty more ahead of me and I am excited about the prospect of getting a job in London and living the city life.
