Udhara:

I work with a lot of Australians at my company. All of them left Australia to pursue their career in aviation because Australian aviation is a very competitive market for pilots. The lucky ones end up at Qantas. Everybody else struggles to find a good job. That is what makes Australia one of the toughest markets in the world to pursue. You only have one good choice and if you fail to get on with them then your career will be mediocre at best. You'll have to either live on the paltry wages of a Virgin or Jet* pilot or go overseas.

That being the case, get your degree in Digital Media then pursue a career in aviation. If you make it to Qantas then you are probably set for life. If you don't and want to have a stable job at home then you can fall back on the digital media thing.
