i am a master of philosophy

So after two years, it's come to this: whether my name is tacked to a board outside the Examination Schools on the High Street. If your name is on, you've passed. If your name isn't, thanks for playing - go home, you get no consolation prize.

I passed. I may now call myself a Master of Philosophy. Joseph Wang, AB (Princ.), MPhil (Oxon.) certainly has a nice ring to it. Actually, it's phenomenally pretentious.

My brother Matthew came down for the afternoon. It really was wonderful to see him, and I am so proud of him for all of his many accomplishments. He's an inspiration to me. Really.

I'm really tired, but I wanted to blog this before I forgot. Gotta go back to sleep now.
