I'm so glad it's over
4 years has passed

For the last 2 weeks I and 15 fellow students have been stressed about our final projects at school. We've been 4 years on our way and can now call us Graphic Designers. The projects consists of 4 jobs, The first 2 are obligatory - 1 website and 1 for print (3 spreads) that has to match 100% on a print we got delivered, 2 pictures had to be scanned and color corrected, text had to be set up correctly after standards etc. Then there were the free jobs, also 1 website and 1 for print, minimum 6 spreads. It had to go together in concept, design and the technical parts also had to be correct. Subject: Lifestyle, Format: Magazine. So I chose digital communication as a sub-subject, looked at the joys and dangers of using chat, cell phones etc. Originally I was hoping we weren't gonna make a magazine but rather a brochure or folder, because I could use my material to produce a brochure for educational purposes. But the format borked that idea, and instead I created a concept for a magazine which would go more into detail in the articles, rather than describing/recommending a new product etc. And it went well, and I'm a happy man.
Here in Denmark, we have a different grade system. If you get 03 or 5, you haven't passed your exam. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 you passed. 8 is given for average performance. That's how it works for standard schools and universities. But not the Technical School I attended, here the highest grade you can get is 11, and that grade results in a bronze medal and a hand shake with our queen at the Copenhagen City Hall. 2 of my class mates got 11, myself and another got 10, the rest got 9, 8 and one got a 7. So I can proudly say I passed with grace, and now all I have to worry about is getting back to work on monday. School's over.

| what did he say? |
I don't know exactly, Snidely, but I'm sure he was making fun of you.
Congrats, Lasse! I know you've been working hard. When you go back to work on Monday, tell your boss he owes you a raise.

They're on their way, now that I have time for it.
He was just trashing your stuff as usual
Heh, I'd love to do that, but unfortunately that's not how it works when he wants to negotiate my wages
