About Me
OMG GAMES.

I'm a student in Manchester over here in the always sunny UK. I can juggle, like cats and can't say the alphabet backwards very fast.

The Podcastle is sexy, listen to it.

Games have become a backward-looking medium. Because game designers rely on the language of cinema, they have not sufficiently developed a new form of storytelling based on the language of video games. - Daniel Radosh 28/09/07

Dr. Wardrox BEng MSc NVGR
wardrox | 9:42 AM on 06.23.2008 28 comments


[Insert shooped picture of me with one of those funny hats you wear when you graduate]

Just a very quick cblog to annouce I now have letters after my name. Four to be exact; BEng.

I have received a 2i from my university in the field of Comuter Engineering. Completeing my 3 year Bachelors degree and getting to legitematly add BEng after my name. This now means I will contune on to start my Masters in Advanced Computer Science in September. Woot!

The Masters is a full 12 months of hard work, but when done will bring the total number of letters after my name upto 7 (adding MSc). After that, it's either a job, or possibly more University in the form of a research Phd. Dr. Wardrox does have a nice ring to it.

All of this coming as my University celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Manchester 'baby'. The worlds first stored program computer.

Now if you dont mind, I'm off to have a beer :D

Only three years for a Bachelor's and then only one for a Master's? It's an extra year for us over here across the pond.

But then, I'm just skipping the Master's and going straight for the Ph.D. "Good afternoon Dr. Wardrox. I'm Dr. Dexter." That's what it's going to be like in four or five years.
