Decisions....

Hello Lovelies,

I am once again quite late, I don't really have an excuse except school. School work has been falling from the sky and I haven't have a moment for myself in a really long time. 

The holidays have finally arrived, my sister came back from France for the holidays. I have been enjoying family time and reconnecting with my sister. I didn't have the time to do anything else and buying gifts for the holiday season has been taking a lot of my time (I will most probably do a blog post about the present I received and those that I gave). 

I have been making decisions for most of my life. Between choosing whether I wanted a Sprite or a Fanta or if I wanted to wear black or pink. And bigger decisions when my father would ask me if I wanted to move around, travel, change country, change school and discover a new country.

But this decision is most probably the biggest decision I will ever have to make. In less than two years I will be getting my diploma and starting university/college. I have been wanting to be a surgeon ever since I remember but recently I have found what I wanted to become: a surgeon in the army. 

Looking for universities that would allow me to study medicine and be in an environment that I would enjoy spending the following nine years of my life. Whether I want to study in France or in the United Kingdom, whether I won't mind being a thousand kilometers away from my parents and moving on my own. 

France has it's upsides, it is the country I have called home since I could speak. Furthermore medicine studies in France are known as the best studies in the world and I would be able to practice medicine all around the European Union. But I've never really enjoyed my time in France maybe it was because I wasn't old enough to enjoy the pleasures of living in such a free country. The winter is also a downside of it all, even though turns out the UK has the same shitty weather.

The UK seems like the perfect place, learning in the language that I love seems perfect. Plus London is such a beautiful city (I need to study in a big city, I don't really like the countryside that much) and I am sure that living in London will make me fall in love with it even more. But having studied in a French school makes it complicated. First of all, French Baccalaureates aren't recognized in the UK for med schools which means I'll have to do a foundation year before and I know all of my vocabulary in French switching to another language won't be easy at all.

I still have mix feelings about making this decision, but the one that stands out the most is stress. I am anxious, I do not want to make such a big decision at my age and the fact that it will be defining the next years of my life isn't making it easier.

Thank you all for your support,

Love, Elise xx

P.S: I want to eat the whole cake (for all those that get the reference I want to hug you)
