Graduation!

without comments

After four years at University in Wales my time as a student is finally coming to an end! All that remains to be done is to travel back for one last week of drinks, laughs, goodbyes and the ceremony!

I’ve grown a lot as a person and learnt far more than the material contained in the lectures  - and what more relaxed and beautiful a backdrop to do it all against than Aberystwyth!  I’ve also met and studied with some awesome people, with whom I’ll be sure to stay in touch.

If you’ve happened across this post and are considering studying in Aberystwyth, I thoroughly recommend it. It’s such a nice place with an atmosphere to match, and I’ll definitely be visiting for years to come!

I’ll leave this post with my favourite picture of a regular occurrence at sunset in Aber; thousands of starlings swarming in in huge bubbles to roost for the evening.

HTC Hero Android 2.1 UK Release Dates?

without comments

Since their announcement at MWC 2010 of a “February to March 2010″ timescale for the Android 2.1 update, the community has had only hearsay and rumour on which to base their excitement.

Speculation of “some time in March” has been rife for a while, but as the month drags on it’s looking less and less likely that HTC will meet their deadline – even more so given the latest rumours indicating an April/May release date.
