#19. Results

Getting exam results today. Not sure how I feel. The fact that I haven't eaten or even been hungry all day might suggest I'm nervous. I feel some sense of anticipation but I'm not sure if it's positive or negative.

I was going to be traditional and get the results from the noticeboard, but it's 4 now, so I might as well check them on the web. Being in work is not a good environment to get them, so I'll probably have to go home anyway (regardless of how they turn out).

Typically, I'm taking a nerd approach to finding out the moment they go up. I'm using:

lynx -dump http://www.tcd.ie/Examinations/Results/PDF/ | grep 4302000 | head -1

To get the modified date to see when they are uploaded. I'll let you know...
