Wabby's Journal

Ok.. So I have two options.. I don't know which to decide.

Basically, I'm second year at University. Studying Psychology and Education Studies. I moved away from home to study. I live 2 hours by plane away.

OPTION ONE..

I stay at the University I'm at now.

+ves..

my boyfriend lives here.

my boyfriend's family live here.

i have some alright friends.

i get to live in a flat, so I have my independence.

warmer climate (helps my fibromyalgia)

live close to Uni (5 minute walk)

live close to town (5 minute walk)

i'm studying towards a science degree (which sounds better than an arts degree). 

no nagging parents or family

i have a good doctor here.

I could have my degree finished half way through 2012.

my mum and I have a good relationship living not in each other's faces

i like the city that i'm living in 

-ves..

my asthma is very bad here. I'm on a few different steroids and had an asthma attack last week.

i have no family close by.

when i'm unwell/sick/sore I have no one to help/look after me.

quite expensive to live here. It costs me about $250-$300 NZD a week and I only receive $190. My parents cover the rest and I have to pay them back.

OPTION TWO..

Move back to my home city to go to University.

+ves..

my puppy lives there.. whomI love very much and wont be alive for ever =[

my family lives there.

it'll only probably cost me $50-75NZD a week to live there, so I can start paying back the money that I owe my parents.

free internet, electricity, food.

i'll have someone there to help me when I'm sick (Mum).

i'll eat healthier because my mum is a health freak.

i have two friends that are studying the same thing and they have study groups which I could go to.

i could easily get a part time job and volunteer work that would lead me into a full time job when I graduate.

-ves..

admitting defeat..

cold weather, which makes my fibromyalgia worse.

 i'd have to bus to Uni/town.. About 20 minutes.

i have an annoying 17 year old brother..

i'd have to do an Arts degree, which wouldn't sound as good on paper.

would still be studying in 2013.

mum and I often don't get on that well when we're living together.

i don't have a good doctor 

my boyfriend doesn't live there.

i don't really like the city.

i've had some bad experiences and memories in the house that i live in.

my mum might be moving to another city between now and when I graduate so I'd have to transfer uni again.

it might be difficult to cross credit my papers from the universities, meaning that I might have to redo stuff.

I think that's all I can think of.. Which would you choose?
