thanks so much for responding.

As for specialities - i am meaning more the electives in the course - they are so varied i guess i need to sit down closer to that time and see what is interesting me as i do the course.

My only option is external study - my local uni doesnt do it at my campus - but need to attend a few weeks of intensive workshops at the other campus (250km away) which is fine. will make it a mini family holiday lol.

I will have such a big hecs bill (hoping i am eligible things have changed it seems since i was at uni - post 2005 studies or something lol). but you get that.

I am just looking for a new lease on life, wanting to get out of my current profession as i have been losing the passion not for what i do but for the political rubbish that goes along with it. (sad isnt it).

i would love to chat more - any info let me know
