Just a quick recap of what happened.
I was offered education/visual arts by Monash, my 7th preference... when I wanted to do anything business related which were by 6 preferences before that, and I was also offered Asian studies/Commerce at ANU. I could have gone to ANU but then i would ahve to move interstate to a place where I know nobody, and financially it would have been very hard.
So what happened, the good luck!
About a week after the offers came out I was offered a scholarship to Monash university, of $6000 a year. This would have been more than enough to pay for my education/visual arts course, and leave me some extra money for myself. So this made the descision between Monash and Canberra easier. And in 2nd round offers I was lucky and got offered a single degree in Business at Monash, which was my 2nd preference and probably most prefered and flexible option.
So now I will be going to Monash university (Caulfield) to study Business, and I plan to major in both economics and banking and finance. So now everything is going well I have the course I think I want to do along with a scholarship which pays for about 80% of my fees. Although Caulfield is considered a bif far by some, I dont mind its closer than Clayton, and easier than moving to Canberra. So I'm happy I will be able to stay in Melbourne. Its just a hour and a half train trip each way to the uni, but thats ok, for about 6 months, after 6 months or so I pplan to move out and live on my own, somewhere close to the uni and city.
I'm now waiting and looking foward to O-week in 2 weeks and meeting many new people, it should be good fun.
Though a part of me would have liked to done education/visual arts and be a teacher... but will have to wait and see what I think of business... I've also thought about maybe doing a double degree with journalism or chinese.... something like that, but its just a thought, I have plenty of electives to use later.
So I just have to wait for uni activities to start and see who I meet, as I dont know what kind of people to expect to see that would study business... unlike visual art/education I had some idea what to expect.
As for my art... I havnt drawn or submitted anything in a while... though I wish I had more time to do so... but work usually takes up my time... as I work late nights usually 12 or 2am. But I will try to get something down, even if its a scribble/sketch... I want to draw!!!!
