Had the worst time at uni today wont go into it because ill cry!

Think that this course definatly wont do for me i doubt ill get in anyways i was thinking about my options if i didnt get in, by the end of college i will have a BTEC National Diploma in Health Studies so imediatly i cant do anything majorly different but i think id be better with animals i always wanted to but for some reason i thought when i was 16 i wanted to be a midwife! so now i need to think about what i could do, ive read about that rodentology course but i wouldnt get to cambridge so thats out, i dont if I'm honest want to go back to college because ill be 20 when i leave so id prefer to work in a rescue or something but i need a income any ideas?
 
Hmm maybe, but might still need uni for any vet courses, was thinking work for a year save save and save again then move to somewhere i can start a boarding place, do boarding kennels like local ones pay or is it volutary? otherwise may have to work in a chemist the rest of my life!
 
I think they do both, pay and voluntary :)

I think he saving idea is great. You have a lot of time so keep all options open love! Anything's possible
 
Verity, you're only 17! Don't feel pressured to make a "lifelong" decision now. When I was your age I thought I was going to be a famous painter. Yes, I got the art degree, yes I sold some, but in the end I realised I didn't even want to do that. Now I am applying for nursing.

I can't make the choices for you, but just remember there is absolutely no hurry to decide what you want to do for the rest of your life.

Dont apply to southampton Lucinda they are TW*TS! lol and i no but at the mo everyones putting the pressure on my parents especially they keep goin abby will get into uni blah blah blah makes me feel like I'm not good enouhg
 
That must be irritating! But you are more than good enough. :) We all know that. You just need to make sure you make the right choices.

I have applied to Truro, because i want to move home to Cornwall.
 
I might take a gap year to look at life maybe meet someone ^-^ and get my life together without the stress of college jsut working i might be able to loose the weight and then leave work next summer to either go to another uni or maybe even start something else, because the chances of me getting into that uni are slim to none!
 
I agree with Lucinda life is a long time regretting what hurried choices we made when in our teens my son has done 2 years almost training to be a chef and has now decieded he does'nt like the unsociable hours in the job all things we told him before he started out and which he now says we was right , my other son did almost 2 years of motor mechanics met his future wife and left college 2 months before the end of his course :~D 98), so take your time it will save you time in the future, if you know what I mean, ;)
 
I know how you feel Verity, and big hugs to you hun.

I'm a legal secretary would you believe ::) and what a joke - hey? I can't find work and feel like I messed up my life at 20. I really should not have done it. The only gain I've got is that I can touch type my forum posts - whoppee! ::)
