Well, not only is mum looking at moving down to Devon, my OH has now been offered a job there!!! The guy has said he will employ him as soon as he wants to return!

Brilliant! when are you booking the flights?

That's the problem. I'm in my thrid year of a four year degree. I just feel like quitting it now and going back asap. But if I do that, I will have wasted 2.5 years of hard slogging studying.....it will all have been for nothing and it would've cost us $10k for the pleasure. It would be a lot different if I was just in my first year but I've put so much effort into this.

I am having a right battle within myself at the moment...head -v- heart.

An offer I am sure you dont want to refuse, the little voices are calling you home.

Have you looked into transferring to a UK uni, or is that not possible?

Sounds like its all coming together for you Tracey. Can you not look into transferring. I know you will have to pay a bit more but I am sure it must be possible.

Tracey, things seem to be moving so quickly for you, is this a sign i wonder!!!

I told you i would be left here alone, ARgggggggggghhh!!

Well you deserve everything that is offered, you have worked damn hard and i hope you get want you want asap.

Oh wow! Fate is surely tapping on your shoulder isn't she?
What a brilliant opportunity for you both.
The studying is a hard one though you have spent a lot of time and money into doing this and to not finish well it would be such a waste. Could you not ask if you can finish the course in UK somehow? Rather than wasting it all. Its a tough call when you are so wanting to go back and these opportunities fly your way.

Good luck in your decision, you will make the right one for you.

I've just e-mailed Exeter university. They have a facility there for Initial Teacher Training.

I would have to get a transcript of the units I've completed; it's whether they would acknowledge them

Ohhh...head spin..head spin!

WOW! Things are looking up - all good things come to those who wait (so I'm told............and I'm still waiting!!)

If you can't transfer your studies - will the job still be there for OH next Dec??

Thats great I know you werre worried, I'd bloody well take it!!!.

Get that house on the market and goooooo......................

Hi Tracey,

If it's not fate than I'm not sure what it is! When I was looking into transferring my course to the UK (I was only studying part-time during my first semester), I found out that some unis won't charge you international rates, so long as you've been studying full-time while you've been out of the country. Might be worth asking them about? (Apologies if you knew all that already.) With the modular systems now operating, fingers crossed it's quick and easy to get recognition for your studies so far.

Oh Tracey that's fantastic news for you. It just seems that everything is pointing to your move sooner rather than later. Fingers crossed for you about the uni

You are SO excited ! Hope Exeter can help with a course...if so there is your answer. Fingers crossed

I knew it was too good a start to the sodding day to be true.

I had and e-mail back from Exeter, they only do post-grad courses. That's me stuffed.

Back to the drawing board
