    Well, after a sum total of seven years of undergrad study (chopped up and sprinkled across a number of years, degrees and states) I am now only 3 more years away from actually graduatin'. LOL So I admire the clarity of your plan right down to the bottom of my toesies.

    In fact, if it wasn't for the excellent credit and 100% workplace relevance of my current course, I would love to be doing a different degree altogether - but in three years time when this one is under my belt and I'm being handsomely renumerated for my efforts I'll be free to pursue whatever path I want to then.

    At this stage I will finish my undergrad (Bach. Ed.) in 2 years time, I then plan to do my Masters of Special Needs Teaching and once I've done that I'll see what my options for further study are, maybe some study in the admin side of teaching. Time will tell.

    Currently studying undergrad degree to become a proper (instead of a defacto) librarian. Have since discovered that local universities really and troolly do hand out degrees in creative writing (!). Luckily there are plenty of workshops and events full of interesting people to meet so I'm still learning even if I never do formal study in that area. Plus I've always fancied I will end up teaching in the VET sector. So there are some post-grad study opportunities as well as other diplomas and things I could pursue once I finally decide what I'm gonna be when I grow up .
