so, decision made

Last time I posted I had decided I wanted to study teaching, well I have just finished applying! I have applied for both Deakin and Melbourne Uni, but I have put Deakin as number one. Basically because it will save money, and because I actually don't like being on the Melb Uni campus. I went there for Open Day, and I walked around for a little while and just walking around I realised that I don't feel comfortable on the campus - I just don't... I can't even really put my finger on the reason, but I just don't feel right. Oh well, Deakin will be good. I will still be at home, and still have my jobs. It will help me save money, because I have also decided/realised that I want to travel. So I was thinking that if everything goes 'to plan' after I graduate from uni I will travel around the world for a little while. I really want to! And I've never really thought about travelling before, but I just do!! I very excited!

In other news, I got my new laptop about 2 weeks ago! It's a gorgeous brown Dell. I must say I have had a few issues with Vista, but not too many. It was a bit silly with an external harddrive. But otherwise it is wonderful!! I finally put all my data from my old computer onto it last night, and so now it is my one and only computer! Excellent!

And also I have started driving again. I hadn't been driving in ages, then mum told me how she and John would be going to New Zealand in November, and then Perth in December so if I didn't have my licence I basically wouldn't be able to get anywhere... And plus, there will be a car to use over that time. So I went driving on Saturday, and I will go again during the week. I am a bit more determined now than I was before, and I think if I try really hard I can have my licence sooner rather than later. So that's awesome too...
