She tried to get back into University in Canada to finish her masters but had a hell of a time getting in. I don't know much about it but I think there are (or at least was at the time) only a few schools here that offer a masters in that so she decided she'd head to Australia and get it there. She did that, finished it about a year and a half ago and now she's a therapist over there. I doubt she's ever coming back here to live.
in what ways did she find the job unsatisfying? the pay? this is actually pretty interesting to hear cus from what i've been hearing, this is a growing industry with the aging population...and its more or less related to the medical field..
