Plans for the future

I can't believe how fast my time here has gone! On Sunday I'll be heading home for a few days over Christmas and then in exactly a month I'll be moving back to Stockholm. CRAZY!

So, I guess it's time to talk about the future. I have decided to move to England permanently. I obviosuly want to be with Andy and I really do love it here so it feels natural for me to move here =)

Moving here does require some planning though, here they are so far:


University:
I still have one term of Uni left in Stockholm so I need to move back so I can finish my studies. It's going to be a rough term though because I've got two essays and one exam from previous terms that I haven''t done for various reasons. So I'll be studying full time, doing those extra assignments and hopefully also working a little bit.

Living arrangements:
Mikaela is renting my apartment right now and since she needs a place to stay and I need a place to stay we've decided to share for a while. This is a really good way for us to save money! The apartment is pretty small but I'm sure we can make it work for a while ithout killing each other ;)

Timing
We haven't decided when the ideal time to move is. I will (hopefully) be finishing my studies end of May/beginning of June. If they've got shifts for me at my old job at the hotel over the summer I might stay and work and earn some money. Can't really move without any money!

Plans in England
Since I'll (hopefully) be a qualified teacher in June I'm obviosuly hoping to work as a teacher in England, even tough it is a bit scary! I think they do need teachers here so it shouldn't be impossible to get a job. And I am qualified to work here since I will have gotten my degree withing the EU. But I am prepared to work with something else for a while if I can't get a teaching job right a way. I know and like the hotel business so I can always do that. Another back-up plan is to sign up for a distance course at a university in Sweden. That way I can study from England and still get student money from Sweden. This is not ideal though since I'd rather not be taking more student loanes.

So that's my plan! It's a bit of a scary plan but at the same time I'm so excited about it all and can't wait to move over!
