where to go after TOA?

sigh... i'm really confused right now, i don't know where i wanna further my studies at? Should i go to Australia or maybe the States? darn confused... what i'm afraid of is the design culture in US and AUS is completely different? At first i wana go to US as i had a friend who's gonna go there with me but the prob is i have to study for another 3 freakin' years and i'm so done with studying for so long, tho it's a master degree but still >.<

Geez... the most is i could only study for is another 2 more years. I've already wasted 2 years of time already... darn... i don't wana spend so much of time in studying.

Actually, my coll is affiliated with 2 Uni in the States, 1st is Savannah Coll which is in Georgia, and the 2nd one is The Coll of Creative Studies, which is in Michigan. If i wana persue my studies in Savannah, i've gotta study for 3 freakin years where as the Michigan one only need 2 years to complete my degree. If i wana pursue my degree in Aus, then it would be Swinburne in Melbourne. I've thought of going into Monash Uni but it takes 3 years for a degree and they need a strong portfolio to get into the Uni but i don't think my portfolio is strong enough to get me into the Uni. So, forget bout Monash Uni and the last and only choice in Aus is only Swinburne. Actually there's another Uni in Melbourne, which is RMIT, but unfortunately lots of rumors said that their quality in design is getting pretty bad. (No offense but i swear i didn't make it up) So, forget bout that as well. *sob sob

Another prob is, i don't think my dad could afford my study fee in US for 3 years. The most he could afford to pay my tuition fee is only 2 years. So, got a lil' bit of hope in studying in US. I feel so bad that i've wasted so much of his money in paying my tuition fees. Sorry dad. I've told my dad that if it's too expensive and he really can't afford it, might as well i'll do my studies in Aus, it's way mroe cheaper and my mum said it's better for me to go to Aus as my bro is there as well and it's more convenient for her to come and find both her sons.

Another thing i'm worry about is i'm afraid i can't get any job in US after i've completed my degree as they're quite strict in hiring foregin people like me after the 911 incident. But all i have to do now is to complete my studies, built a strong portfolio and work hard, no matter where i go, i believe if my portfolio is superb, there will be people who's gonna hire me. And all i know is i dont wana get stuck here in MALAYSIA!!!!!
