In need of happiness...

The day started with sun and blue skies and I started the day in a similar mood.

Just had a phone call from university though that has sent my mood to despair. I have again not passed my remedial exams for physics. I have no MSc in physics but in geology and geophysics. However, that is not an university course here in Belgium. So I enlisted at the university in Antwerp at physics department (which was closest to my original training) to start a post graduate teacher training program when I wanted to retrain as a teacher. I could start there on one condition that I would pass remedial tests on physics.

At the moment I am on course to finish this post graduate training in June, bar those remedial physics exams. These are exams that are not on the curriculum but I need to pass them otherwise they won't hand me my certificate. I don't think I will pass them ever (I have been trying for too long and neither thinks the university) and I just don't know what to do.

Since the start of the school year I have been teaching and I love the job, my school is very satisfied with the work I do and so are my students. It's just the physics department that I need to convince I am a good teacher and don't know how. I don't even want to be a hard core physics teacher, I like sciences as a whole and geography...

So what do I do (besides cry a little, a play with a camera and photoshop)?
