My better half starts today, I kinda regret not going to uni... but when I see that most grads don't start on what I'm on at the moment (if they're lucky enough to find employment straight after) it gives me peace of mind.

And not being a student doesn't mean I can't get as pissed :p

DONT EVER LEAVE UNI EVER STAY THERE FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE THE OUTSIDE WORLD OF JOBS IS A BAD BAD HORRIBLE PLACE
(think of billy maddison shaking that fat kid)

lol just left uni was great all 4 years, well uni work itself was a bit boring at times but the student life is great

its a little depressing if u dont live in a big town/city when u leave uni cause finding jobs is difficult, you either have not got enough experience OR your over qualified, so dont worry if u dont get a job straight after you leave

It's bog-standard Computer Science with an industrial sandwich year making it 4 years in all.
1st year :)

Wish i went to uni, but due to my lack of motiviation over education and more knowledge than the teachers at my past college, I left.
