Hi ya I'm Julie a second year Occupational student living in Hamilton, NZ. Because I'm an oldie, 46 to be exact, I'm classed as a mature student. I'm really enjoying being in a learning environment again (particularly now that I am part time and able to create a bit more balance in my life). I have 1 partner 3 boys and 1 cat all of whom are very supportive of my studies. I consider myself very lucky. Hopefully one day, as an OT, I will make a difference in somebody's life.
