All about me

Hi, my name is Pauline and I am 26 and from Glasgow. I trained originally as a French Horn player, but can't get a job in this area due to problem with my jaw, (TMJ)

So I decided to return to my original plan and go back to uni to do nursing. I am hoping to start in September 2005. I am doing the adult branch as I haven't decided which area I want to work in yet, although I am interested in midwifery.

I know I don't start until september, but hopefully this diary will help me keep my head sorted, and make the time go by quicker!

Re: All about me

Unfortunately I had fixed braces (as a sort of cure for TMJ) put on just before my graduation, so my playing career didn't really get a chance to take off. I did freelance stuff around Glasgow before getting a job in orchestral administration for BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, and then BBC National Orchestra of Wales. But I found it hard working with the orchestra when I couldn't play so I quit last June and moved to Luxembourg with my friends as their au pair. The time over here let me sort out what I wanted to do with my life. I really enjoy caring for the kids (a 3 year old and a 6 month old) and this helped me decide to apply for nursing. I will keep playing horn for fun though!
