Havering College of Further and Higher Education, Essex

I have just given in my final work for my Photography BA.

I can do nothing now but wait, and of course put up the three shows yet to run, but nothing I can do will affect my results.

I feel like I haven't done enough to get the result I would like, but I will just have to wait until 11.20 on 23rd June to find out. In the meantime, will just have to manage my expectations!

good luck to everyone else coming to the end of theor degrees!

Just got home fro the Private View, it went really well, thanks in part to it being on a First Thursday, and there being other shows on in the vicinity

lots of people dropping in, lots of interest, enough drinks, and approval from the tutors .. what more could we ask for……!

if anyone is in the London area, please drop by and review One more than Ten at Studio 1.1 in Redchurch street, full details in Degree show section. thanks.

Well, another milestone reached, our graduate show went up today. once we got into a bit of a system, it all went up smoothly.

Although we had planned who would go where in the gallery some of the places changed, but I think everyone was happy with their positions in the end. our concerns about the space were pretty much unfounded, and no ones work looks constricted or squashed.

Now we can look forward to the Private View on Thursday.

Enjoyed walking back through the city suits with my big spirit level and electric screwdriver, just glad I am no longer one of them.

Its all gone a bit quiet.

The panic has subsided, or seems to have. Hopefully its not the calm before the storm.

I think people have their final work now, at least I hope so , seeing as the show goes up on Tuesday.

Plans have been made for putting up and the Private View,

In retrospect there are things which we could have done better but working in a group can be tricky when the group is small. Less people to spread the tasks among, so everyone trying hard to juggle their personal projects and committments to group tasks. Fund raising is particularly difficult when there are only 11 of you, so everyone ends up paying more for the extras we'd like to have.

I think the final collection will work well. As some students work addresses similar subjects, these will look especially good together in the gallery.

We may not have all the expensive frills and freebies at our little show, but the work is good and everyone has done their best, and that's what its all about.
