Shite. This job interview thing has blown up in my face a little bit. I had a message on my phone from the centre yesterday and when I just called him back he offered me a job at another centre that Scottish Centres runs. This is the one that's an official eco-centre and teaches environmental programming (not just activities like the other ones).
Now I had decided about 10 minutes into the interview that I didn't want the job I was interviewing for because it was just activities and no actual environmental learning. So I thought I acted so there would be no chance they gave me the job and tempted me. I didn't show ANY leadership skills at all during the activities and basically just bummed around and had a good day.
Another bad thing is that the job starts Feb 20 and doesn't end until October. So no traveling for me if I take it. Or I'd probably just stay over here until early spring of next year doing all my travelling at the end (since I'd have tons of money too). It would be all good and well if I knew I wasn't going to get into teachers college - but I won't know that until April. And that means I'll be over here 6 more months than I though.
So now I am very torn. I've been looking for a real job like this since I graduated and now I get it at the worst time ever. And must make a decision by this afternoon. Help anyone???? Please!!!!

You're all useless....
Don't take the job! You could have a job and stay in one place here. Scotland and Europe is for Travelling and Seeing!!!!!
That's what I did :) Thanks Jessimica.
phew! Your welcome. Sorry my advice came way after your decision had to be made!!!!!!
take it man! think of how awesome it would be on your teacher's college resume, and think of all the un-interrupted travelling you could do if you saved up all sorts of cash! not to mention that you said it's a joirb that you'd totally love! DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!
Learning not to regret ones decisions like the one you made recently is one of the hardest things you have to do. The trick is keep track of what doors were closed, and which ones were opened...
Keep having a great time there and hopefully you will get the opportunity you have been looking for when you want it.

Holy comments :)
Thanks guys for your help. I do appreciate it and am happy with my decision. Work can always come later.
Hopefully I'll be off on a trip this weekend or the next so I shall update you all on that then.
Cheers
