One of the reasons why I didn't do honours this year is because the lack of reading I did was just criminal. While I might be able to do well in honours, I only want to do it if I am going to commit to it 100%.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24761391.post-85588141254952035542007-12-09T19:10:00.000+11:002007-12-09T19:10:00.000+11:00Thanks Russell.

I'm personally not getting too excited ,however , i felt that i had slacked off too much this year, and there is certainly much room for improvement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24761391.post-86987789224952900792007-12-08T17:04:00.000+11:002007-12-08T17:04:00.000+11:00Yes I was happy with my results. My average (for ...Yes I was happy with my results. My average (for the purpose of working out honours) in philosophy was 83.75 which I think is high enough to get a scholarship. However, I'm not going to do honours next year, as I have been offered a job in a magazine in Thailand. I will see how that goes an reassess things next year. If things don't work out though, I have a few more options, professionally.<BR/><BR/>I'm not too convinced I will return, as I kind of sick of leading the student lifestyle and want to start earning a decent living. I will only return if I am definitely getting a scholarship, and if Rob Sparrow agrees to be my supervisor, and a few other things align themselves correctly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
