So I went down to University of Technology Sydney (UTS) for their 'information day'.
It was sort of pointless. I had no questions for the teachers, after all the internet knows all!! So i already knew the class outline blahblah all that crap and nonesense. So i scabbed a bunch of booklets/pamphlets and went on my way.
I must say, it has been a while since I have set foot into the heart of Sydney. Serously i don't know how long, it can't be more then a year =/ I live in Western Sydney, a lot of peeps from South or North Syd think us West Sydney siders are the 'country'. LOL! We really are not!!
But once i went into the city, i totally felt like a country bumpkin. I kept looking up at how tall all the buildings were!! And my nose is rather sensitive. It guides me everywhere xD And the city has a smell which is unsettling at first. I guess i will grow to love it? And the people!! I felt so...just out of place. And there are so many people walking on the paths...it's suprisingly uncomfortable.
I admit, at first i was excited to be in the heart of the city, away from my hometown Penrith but now i am nervous. My sensible side tells me that i'm just feeling paranoid right now, but after a while i'll feel okay. I mean i have to?! i"ll be there for six years!! Holy crap i just realized that is as long as school
Anyways, UTS looks awesome on the inside, (the outside is super ugly) they have these couches all huddled in besides the cafés and restaurants and there are all these city shops everywhere ^^. I was so close to Kino when I had to stop off one stop earlier but sadly my mother would not allow me to go.
I had a look at the booklets and turns out Sci courses at UTS has the lowest employment rate out of all of them. And i am already aware you don't end up with much salary wise. i mean 75% employment!! that is not a lot at all =( bit depressing...i dunno i feel really unstable...I mean..this is what i want right?
RIGHT?!?
