Title: University finals hand in day!
Post by: Corrigan on May 06, 2013, 02:11:02 AM
Little Jenny Pattison is about to venture out into the big bad world as a graduate (and a tax payer, boo), as long as these next few days of marking go ok!  Please keep all your digits crossed for me, I'm a bundle of nerves!  When the films are up online for the public to see, I'll post links for those interested.

Congrats to our very talented and well deserving graduate! Although you're a bundle of nerves, we all know that you will breeze by the next few days and be proud. Looking forward to the films and the new taxpaying Jen.

Congrats, and well done slice! Keep it on ice.

As someone who is having his own exams in university during the next month, I wish you the best of luck! ;)

Heh heh...Jen, I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone here when I say that you're almost certainly your own worst critic.  You'll do just fine!  Congrats on getting to this point--I know how hard you've been working for it!

Good luck, but I'm sure that you don't need it.

Thank you all so much for your support these past few months, and this past year!  It's been a bigger help than you know.  Good luck to you, too, Slash, I hope the exams go ok!  Looking forward to giving QFI my full attention again when this is over and creating some kickass portraits of some of our lovely backers! :) x

Congratulations!

What will your degree(s) be in?

Thank you, it's in Animation!  I already have a 2 year qualification in Illustration, but it's not a degree. :)

Best of luck, Jen, I'm sure you'll breeze through it! So it's probably more like "Congratulations, Jen!"  ;)

And good luck to Arsenyi too. :)

Thanks! ;)

And to be honest, I still don't know what is the right way of spelling my name in English, lol :D Different teachers suggested different variants - Arseni, Arseny, Arseniy, Arsenyi... ;) It's spelled as "Arseniy" in my passport, so I guess that's the right one.

PS wikipedia suggests Arsenius, lol :D

I'm gonna call you Arsenio.

Heh, yes, though - good luck to you too, sir!!!

Ha!  That's just what I was thinking...

Guess I spent too much time in the "Dog Pound" -- Whoo!  Whoo!  Whoo!  Whoo! -- back in the early 1990s.   :)

Good luck Jen!  You seem extremely intelligent and I already know you're very talented, so I'm sure you don't need to worry a bit.  So I'll go ahead &  add a big "Congratulations!" in there as well.   Having school behind you is always a huge relief...:D

Haha, thank you very much Sarah!  I hope all these preemptive congratulations don't come back to bite me in the ass ;)  Off to my presentation this morning, then I just need to fix the final touches on my film and prepare the studio for the degree show....and wait for my results!  I think my sigh of relief is a couple of weeks off yet :)

You manage to type in a Scottish accent so well :) All the best am sure you will do fine

She does do that, it really makes me laugh. When I read her Skype conversations I read them in a Scottish accent.

Jen has a lovely Scottish accent in her speaking voice.  If you haven't seen the "Meet Team Infamy" video, you can give it a view here.  You can also hear from the other members of the team, all of whom have various and amazing accents.  Maybe if I get requests, I'll eat some other disgusting food (not Marmite) and do my Scottish accent in the video.

I didn't even use any Scottish words in that post!  You guys are just hearing what you want to hear ;) och aye the noo.

Think it was the "little Jenny Pattison..." bit, besides the Scottish accent is awesome. Some times I type kiwi, like I a, sure your exam results will be sweet as bro!

I'm surprised she didn't say wee Jenny Pattison. ;) Love the accent though, I've had the pleasure of meeting Jenny when I went to Edinburgh last year. Met Scott Murphy which was pretty awesome as well. Scott took a bunch of pictures but not sure if he lost them after breaking his camera. I'm sure his SD card survived. Hope we can rearrange something again this year. :)

Just picked up my degree classification grade....I got a first!  Waaah, so happy :)  Can't celebrate yet because I have a bunch of work to do to get the class' files ready for the interactive displays at the degree show, but I am certainly breathing more easily now :)  Thanks for all the support and well wishes, you guys are awesome x

Congratulations!  My lady Lurker totally called it (top marks!).  You surely deserve it.
