uncomfortable

Since I was 7 i've wanted to be a physiotherapist.
How does someone decide there life so young? At the time it seemed so obviously that God had told me. I wish he still talked to me so clearly or at all.

Regarding physio, I've always been really proactive in seeking out the next step.
When i was 14 i wrote to weston hospital asking to do work experience but they said i was too young and to reapply when i was older - they took me a year later. I then blagged work experience through friends at 2 other hospitals.
I got told by the careers advisor that i would never get into any uni particularly any of the top 3 which she labelled as cardiff uwe or nottingham. Strangely as she said it i decided that those were the ones I wanted to get into.
After applying somehow I got into uni. My personal tutor was the hockey teacher so I taught hockey for the year 7's, and being hockey captin and with going to the pub in pe alevel lessons it ended up that I got good friends with her. She did my reference and gave me the predicted grades i needed. I then had a car accident and got my head of year to write to my universitys to persuade them to have me.
Some how i got offers of BBCC and BCCD despite the AAB labelled on the website - these were from the supposed top 3. HA.
Depite missing my biology grade most exceptionally they let me in..I cried.
Some may say I just knew the right people and the system.

And here I am in my final year. Probably a rubbish degree classification but with firsts in every placement. Ther's now hardly any jobs. Waiting has always been an issue for me and apparently its too early to apply.
Apparently all I need is a mustards seeds worth of faith.
Why do I want it so much? Because of something i felt nearly 14 years ago? Apparently you shouldnt rely on feelings anyway - bollocks. What else is there to rely on? Oh yeah thats what faith is.
