I know where my towel is

Me: *goes off into excited talk about next year*
Ji: You have too many contingency plans.
Me: I know.
Ji: Make a flowchart.





Legend

* Pink abbreviations are the degrees I will accumulate along the way. PhB will actually be PhB(Hons) - Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) in Science - it's an elitist undergraduate science program that the ANU runs. BSc is a plain old Bachelor of Science. MBBS is Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery, which is what Aussies do in place of an MD.

* Red arrows indicate my preferred course of action at this time!

* Notice how PhD is no longer even an option. I just. That much research? No. Not for me.

* Youth Allowance = the government paying me around $300/fortnight while I am studying full-time. To qualify I have to earn around $18,000 in the previous 18 months, and since the DHA graduate program salary is around $48,000...

* Plz note that the box on the far right hand side is the hazy ideal long-term goal.

Any questions? JI?

Wow. My flow chart would be very small and very blank.

Well, you know what you want to do! I have way too many enticing options.
