Yesterday I submitted my final MSc project

and completed a 3 year apprenticeship/master's in STEM. Wow.

It has been a slog but I've loved it and I'll miss it 😥 I am really proud of myself for getting it done (and need a place to brag a teeny tiny bit that I submitted everything two weeks ahead of deadline).

I'm on track for a distinction and I really want DH and the DC to watch me cross the stage in the summer when I pick up my degree and know why Mummy spent all that time studying and working.

Congratulations!
Well done to juggling home, work and studies.
Hope whatever you have planned next is also success.
Relax! And Enjoy!
O! What are you going to wear for graduation?!

Congratulations! What an achievement while running a home and raising a family too, that takes real determination. Your family will be very proud of you and you’re setting a great example!

Thank you! 🙂 a lot of my classmates are still knee deep so I am having my tiny brag and private celebration here. I have worked my arse off. Days, evenings, weekends. I am genuinely proud of myself and my achievement and discipline and I hope the DC will be proud too. I know DH is.

Ooh. I don't know. Probably depends a bit on the weather next July 😁but maybe it's the perfect excuse to buy myself a really sharp trouser suit.

Well done you! I finished my masters in September (and handed my final project in 5 days early!) and felt super proud of myself too! I will graduate with merit, it's a lovely feeling, isn't it, all your hard work paying off!!
