A hard decision...

[itax]

Ok...almost everybody who knows me also knows how much I want to move out of Brazil. Lately...I've been searching the net out for colleges and universities in the U.S. and Canada that have courses on animated cartoons and computer animation, working in this area is a really old dream of mine and the recent frustrations I had at my current job made

More violent and dangerous than New York? O_O

If it will further you toward your goal of leaving Brazil and
reaching the US, and it's the only choice you can afford right
now, I guess it's worth it. But that will be an awfully long
two years.

Yeah Gene...believe you or not that's how that city is. Like...recently their local police force (if I can call that a "force") has been suffering consecutive attacks...they are almost defenseless.

*nods* Yeah...it will be very long but I guess I'll have to run the risk. -_-

The police force gets attacked? Isn't there any military resource they can call upon?

Brazil is sounding more and more unsettling all the time.

[itax]

Yeah...though they recently seem to be actually fighting back. Heh...there is a military resource but calling upon them requires so much damn burocracy that they don't even try. -_-

Have you thought about trying to move to another country first? I know that will be a delay in your plans but it'll get you out of Brazil first. Sometimes its easier to get into other countries as a student. Australia perhaps? :)
