But it is tricky, hopefully you can get a balance by having set internships and booking time out of work. I need the money, but with no experience I am no where. I do kinda have a plan, to do the NTCJ in January. but thats money, groan. Hehee I promise I will stop moaning soon, my lot is not tooo bad! Thanks for following my blog, I loved reading yours it is wicked.

It does look great on your C.V and you can gain a lot but it does not put food on the plate and help you with rent etc .... If I had my youth again I would have done it, it may have gotten me further but I had to have cash coming in or I just have had no life. I had to study, work and look after my mother, but if you are in more of a flexible position than take it !!! For sure you will get a lot out of it, just don't get to catch up in it. Take what you need from it and try for something, you must have a plan or you can end up like some of my friend's did with people making a promise of work and leaving you too it after the inter ship end's.
