I'm pretty sure I've talked about my desire to get into university in a previous post but today I decided to knuckle down and really look at my state application form - look into the universities - KNOW the exact degrees I'm applying for and what when where I have to be for the stats test.... and I did! I'm so excited because I know what I need to do to finalise this application, where I have to be, who I have to annoy for things and it's like it makes it all the more real! I'm actually going to do this and I MIGHT actually have a shot at getting in!
It sounds so stupid to some but I've never grown up around the idea of university being the next step... the next step was always having a job to pay the bills. I'm so proud of myself which I know sounds corny but I am. I was surprised enough to graduate high school let alone years later really try for university but I think I could do it. I never thought I could find my own place and do it all on my own but I am and I have… easily! My fathers side of the family are all lawyers/nurses/computer geniuses and my mothers side are all the creative ones - they love to create poetry, write, sing. In all honesty I've never really known my fathers side of the family - only from what I’ve been told. My parents divorced when I was nine so I only know a little about them but I do know they have the brains on that side - not to completely dismiss my mothers side, as I said my mothers side are easily the creative ones and well, I think I enjoying combining the two with becoming an early primary teacher.
I've worked in a preschool room for the last year and I love it and I can actually do it and I do it well!! This surprises me more than anyone. I can control these children and teach them! Lol.
Anyway, I have a back up plan if it all fails - its okay but I'm really going to try for this. I've applied for Uni before when I was graduating high school but I never REALLY wanted in. After high school I was sooo ready for a break. So that’s what I've been doing with working working working but with starting up study again last year for my cert III - I loved it. I actually now miss going to class and learning to become good at something. Learning new things. Meeting new people. Making great mates and having crazy fun times.
So, I'm stoked that I might actually have a real shot at this AND if I fail, its okay - I have my great back-up plan! :)

My girlfriend works in a pre school too. I just finished teacher college. Working with children is rewarding.

It honestly is. I love that I dont just want this for the fun of uni but truly for the passion of teaching which to whatever degree I guess makes it even the more scary if I dont get in this year.
