saffiter...or should that be lack of one. Still no word from the Uni. I called them up on Wednesday to see if they could tell me what's going on. According to this lady, my application is sitting in a pile waiting to be processed and I should know by the end of the week or early next week.
Um... that's what I was told last week!
Gah! Just gah! I fly down to Brisbane on the 17th. If I don't know anything by the 16th I'm going to call them up again and see if they can tell me what's going on and if I've got in or not.
Term bloody well starts on the 1st of March! It's not like I'm living in the same freakin' city! I'm at the opposite end of the bloody State!
Mum'll be coming down with me. We've got a place booked on Roma St. for the first week and then Mum flies back home. We'll have a bit of a relax, try and get things organised so that I'm ready for Uni. That is if I get in.
If I don't get in, then we're just going to have a weeks holiday in Brisbane and then I'll fly back up to Cairns with Mum. Get some work back here.
I do have an alternate plan. I was looking on www.tefl.com and the jobs up there the other day and spotted a school in Vietnam that offers the DELTA to it's teachers and only it's teachers. Currently you have to work for them before you can do it...and once you've finished it looks like you get promoted into managerial positions. They've got positions coming up in 5 of their branches (ranging from Hanoi to Ho Chih Min) coming up from May onwards. I'm going to apply for one of those positions, work at the school for a year and then sign on for a second if I decide that I can handle living, studying and working in that country before I sign up to do the DELTA.
That's my plan.
