Tried to be as descriptive as possible in the title. I figured you guys would be able to talk my travelling issues so please disregard any whiny rambling, sorry.
To make things short, I feel like I belong elsewhere, somewhere exuberant and full of life. I'd love to move to somewhere like California (bet that isn't a new dream) and make new friends that actually WANT to be my friends. Even if it isn't California. I feel that I have become stuck in a dream world from watching too many movies where everyone becomes their own person and it works out perfectly. I feel that there is no perfect ending for me if I stay in education and eventually become a qualified doctor in psychology. It's scaring me that I'm losing interest in something I am paying to study. Maybe I need to wait until I move out and become my own person?
I have read that the UK offers more academic prospects than in America (considering their vast 'uni' range I don't see how not). So I have some general questions I'd love an answer to:
I have been told to 'try' America for a few years before fully moving. How long should that be?
(Tried this online for ages). How do the qualification systems match up? At the moment I am doing a Ba with Hons in the UK but what is that in America? What would be next? Or after that?
Has anyone else made this move that would care to share their expenditures with myself?
Thank you travellers!
Please don't tell me that I'm 'too young to worry about that now'. Everyone I have asked help from seems to think I am worrying about something I don't need to be. Well, if it involves moving country for good then I feel I should be worried about it.
Again, thank you!
