rdfreakthis will be short and sweet cos i really don't feel like writing.
I am stressed as I am not sure what to do about changing. I called teaching faculty again today and I can't take the sciences out (which I honestly thought couldn't be a problem), and can't change to primary teaching unless I apply for an irregular offer and they aren't even sure they will be taking them. so from where they stood today that's the only thing I can do. however, I'm hearing different things from friends and deakin students all the time. guess my best bet would be to enroll anyway and try and change from there. I hear once you are enrolled, it's easier to change. I'm ready to forget this again. but it'd be great if I can actually get into primary teaching now, cos I can actually see myself doing that. I dunno! why did I have to do this to myself? *grr .. I think I do something right, then . not!
til next time, RdFreak

Don't stress!
Date: 2007-01-19 03:53 am (UTC)Life is too short for stressing, and it never helps you solve the problem anyway so chill. (yes, easier said than done but try it)
There's no point blaming yourself for stuffing up (cos you didn't) or working yourself into a state over something you might not be able to change. You get more done if you can stay relaxed and fairly calm.
My understanding of the uni thing is that if you start a course and want to change, you have to wait for at least a semester or even a year before you can. OK so this sounds like forever but really it's not and hey! you might find you have a secret talent or passion for an unexpected subject along the way.
Changing before you've even started a course is pretty hard, they usually are more helpful once you've actually started there and are officially a student.
If there is no way to change before you start, sit it out for the year or however long and just focus on the fact it's leading you to your ultimate goal in the end. Treat it like a chance to get back into the studying head space if you want or just enjoy the challenge.
Don't quit on it now! just do what you can and if you have to take a little longer to get there, so be it.
And, there's always second or third round offers to come. You got lucky once so who says you won't get lucky again.
Stick with it Chickie, you'll get there.
Email me sometime if you want to talk.

Date: 2007-01-19 04:41 am (UTC)you're right. thanks for that. the more people suggest it to me, and the more the days are getting closer to enrolling, the more I'm agreeing with what you just said above. I'm sick of stressing. and yep, there's still second and third round offers!
Thanks heaps girl! I'll definitely email or call ya soon, *hugs*
