Do it how all the Irish ladies and gents I've worked with: Tourist Visa. At least you could come over and bank some money before going back....

If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******. -
hey, you can't work under tourist visa?! Well in any case I'm coming over in jan-feb for at least few weeks, mostly to check out studying opportunities and intensive snowboarding

I don't think you're supposed to work under one, but that never stopped the Irish girls I knew from finding a job

Well I'll leave that as my last option. It still beats fighting every night for your place in the beach to sleep against moroccan drug dealers.

Pekka, what's this only place where you want to continue your studies? After all, we Suomithreadi folks are the most reliable source for advices to get in.

Nah, doesn't help really. Helsinki unis comp sci department. It's stupid because the exams are not too tough, but that's why you need perfect score because all the nerds are trying to get in too.

Taking chances in life? Hmmm...interesting.
Now I was doing a PhD until last February. Now due to crap conditions, unhappiness and the strong feeling of 'going nowhere' I decided to resign and leave my PhD as I was sick of it. Was it a good choice? Well, quite frankly, I seem to have fallen flat on my face doing it. Even almost a year later I have not found steady employment. I am currently doing some temp work but it just isn't enough long term, I am a little more ambitious than that, and I know I have the ability. But the problem is, no one will take me seriously. I have sent off christ knows how many applications, had lots of interviews but no employer will touch me with a bargepole...it makes me wonder what the f**k is going on with the world...Speaking of Erith:

Emigrate. Britain's got a net skills shortage and you can speak English.

Well UK was my one of three good options.. It's starting to look like I don't have to go on my journey with lots of adventures and romantic (muggings and starvation).
Ok, I have a new game plan. I send my applications to 1000 different places, mainly foreign.
Lazarus and the Gimp, Hmm, emigrating to UK might not be even too difficult, since we're both in EU.. at least I hope so.
Besides, this thing wasn't suppose to sound bad, I wasn't planning on going homeless or anything.. Just find a new place for me to live, keep trusting that I find something.In da butt.

Hmmm, teaching, one I have given a lot of thought to, but the simple fact is I just don't have the mentality for it. I don't suffer fools well, and I'd end up throwing kids through windows
And Pekka, sometimes that idea is tempting

But you know I'd still like to hear some heroic stories about you guys putting everything on line and going for something new. Only few contributions so far..In da butt.

Hehe.
Emigration is kind of tempting but I just wouldn't know how to go about it, and I think they are looking for people with more experience than me...it definitely seems like I need a bit of good luck, but good luck isn't forthcoming...Speaking of Erith:
