Seriously Speaking...

Ok. Decision made.
Yes, I am really adventuring myself in unknown seas.

Funny this sensation of "new start". A long time since I havent writen a CV. Actually I didnt know anymore where to start from. Even seeing CV’s all the time inside my "in-box" , looking at them, analysing them, sometimes laughing at them – you should see what people write on their CV’s ! lol And many times tearing them apart and using the bits as scrap paper.

But its rather strange to sit down and spend hours on the opposite side of the table, trying to jot my details in an attractive way, and feeling the same of those applicants: fearand anxiety. I dont want people tearing my Cv and laughing at them.

Reflecting on what I have read so far in the thousand sites I have been researching, things are not that easy if I am intending to join a state school.

 

There are 2 big "barriers" :

First of all, I start having a big disadvantage towards other candidates: I am not an UK national

Secondly: The high qualification in terms of Academic Education. Even though I had a Post Graduation Degree, It would have to be studied and analyzed by the Gov Offices in order to check its eligibility.

Ok, from the 2 barriers, the worst is the nationality. This is hard to be changed, as I would have to die and be born again, lol
On the other hand, if i ask for naturalization (which demands a thousand requirements) then it would be solved. Consequences: I lose my brazilian nationality (which, for me, its a silly thing, as its just a document to be changed, not a whole mind-counsciousness, that is, I am still a "brazilian" in body and soul, even though my documents dont say so. The only stuff to be considered is adapting to a new citizenship and the rules of a new country. (the rights and obligations etc)

And, as I can not ask for naturalization cos I have NO "legal" satisfactory justifications for doing so, (i.g.: not a permanent resident, not a worker for civil offices, not in the army, not a football player, etc) I can simply forget about this matter.

Ok, so, from all those requirements for asking for a naturalization, the one stating that the applicant must be a permanent resident is the only one that could, one day, apply to me. I mean, if I actually become a permanent resident.

But how?

From what i read, one must have a wish to settle permanet residence in the country. (ok, easy one)
must have reasons for staying – a family (marriage), a job (that should apply for it). No one can simply go to the Immigration office and says: "Ok, i want a permanet residence visa because I intend to live here forever". One must prove that there are strong reasons for doing so. Gosh, I think: my reasons are strong to me!! I want to stay there on a permanent residence basis because i want to make my life in there, near Chris and doing what I like to do.

But for them, these are not enough good justifications.

Funny, lol What is the ONLY reason to me for applying for such a thing is NOT a good reason for them, lol

Seriously, I would never leave my country and change completely my life and start everything over when I am already in the second half of my productive life, without a good reason! And what can I do if the reason is related to a feeling??

Gosh, they should understand that "feelings" are what moves people. Without them, we simply stay as a couch potatoe, comfortable in our homes.

Sincerely, I have no other "justification" for my application, dear officer.

This is the main (and unique) point.

Considering the impossible, that is, they accepting the "feeling" as a reasonable justification, and "awarding" me a permanet resident visa, then I would have to work. Then, what i am doing is: finding a way to have equivalent jobs in my field. Cos obviously, being in love doesnt sustain a life forever without having a proper occupation and professional aims. So, lets work!

Its is all so complicated.

But not impossible.

I deserve an award for "power of will" in terms of "getting near my dear Chris". This researching of information is very tiresome. Gosh. If I were in there, id go in person to all those offices. Think it is surely easier than browsing, browsing, browsing...

Thats it for now.
