Little update, I have been lucky enough to be offered a place on an M.A. in UCLAN Preston on the Fine Art:Site and Archive Intervention course and I find myself slightly nervous, wondering if I am mad doing another 2 years study and very excited all at the same time.
I will start a new blog in Artists Talking very soon, have to say I have found that blogging on Degrees Unedited has been an amazing experience, the comments received from other bloggers were greatly appreciated. I would even go as far as to say it’s been quite therapeutic and look forward to continuing to blog and converse with other artists on the site.
To those students out there considering blogging for their final year, go for it, blog with gusto – you won’t regret it :)
Results in and I got a First which is fantastic news, so pleased it’s untrue. It was my highest mark yet too so that’s an achievement in itself.
I didn’t get the fellowship, fiercely disappointed by that, would have loved it. Would like to feel jealous of those who did get it but they are all so lovely and all equally deserving of it and will make fantastic fellows so I can’t even have the jealousy, I was genuinely happy for them…mad eh?
Working full time at Liverpool Biennial for the next few weeks just to make up time lost, it’s crazy busy there in the run up to Urbanism in September, the buzz is high and so in the daytime I haven’t felt the low of finishing college, of a night when the kids are in bed I feel low. Really missing everyone and a bit concerned about the future.
Filled in an MA application, it’s late but you never know and if not there is always next year, except I really want to carry on now while I am still on a high and while I am still enjoying being a student.
Need to make plans, been reading all the call for submissions and will have to apply for some…arghh…the real world.
Scary and exciting times ahead.
