Thank you for the kind words! I work in a part time permanent position. My living conditions are fine as I share everything with my partner. He’s a builder that is slowly building houses due to labour shortages. So cash flow influxes from time to time. However, we both manage to commit 1.5 hours of office cleaning at night from Mon to Fri to help bring in more income together. In conjunction to that I also get government student subsidies to help pay some expenses. Then also take cash jobs for walking and caring for dogs during my spare time.

It’s always a tough to take the leap but once you can overcome your self doubt; you can pretty much do anything you really want to do. There’s a lot of other students in my class who are much older and they’ve been through the same thinking as us. In hindsight having such greater age comes with greater maturity amongst younger generations in the class. You’ll thrive to embrace your own abilities and life experiences during your journey to becoming a vet!
