Okay anyone in england will know what im on about when i talk about air cadets
if not its the RAF's youth thing
Im going to college once im done in school for 2 years until im 18 or possibly 3 years
anyway the maximum age is 17. which means if i join now ill have a year and a bit of time in it, which means extra qualifications and some fun times and such, OR i could sack it off and go for part time work which, since minimum wage is at 3.57 for me at my age, could earn me a fair bit of cash . i can decide whether or not to join cadets, get an extra year of qualifications while at college, OR just sack it off and do the part time job earning a fair bit of cash for spendings and uni, Or to try and juggle the lot doing a year of cadets while doing part time work when im not there and then in my second year off college doing all part time work to get the cash to put towards uni.

im gonna put a survey up for all you lazy motherfuckers who cant be arsed posting, oh and if i do join cadets it will be after my exams in mid june so ill have like a month and a bit of time for the survey or until it dies or whatever.
if i were to start work id be doing it during the summer so i could juggle the 2 during that time just may struggle when college starts in september since im pretty confident ill get my place.

so summarise, cadets(extra qualifications)
OR part time job (extra cash)
Or both (bit of both only a bit less cash)

i feel as if i could handle them if im careful and dont fuck about but i just wanted to know what you guys think i should do

Oh id also like to mention for those that dont know cadets is a local group thing and college is like a volountary school thing over here in england

me being me ill stay up to ungodly hours of the morning doing research for stuff
found out my college is dioing an aviation enrichment program
and that if i join before im 17 i can be in cadets til im 18 and then if i wanted to could continue on but that probably wont happen but we'll see, so that means i could be doing the juggling act for 2 years, which after discussing it with my mates seeems like a challenge but a worthwhile one so im gonna have the best go at juggling em and if i cant manage then ill drop the one i least enjoy, money or cadets.
but thats just gonna be a fucking huge shuffle around if i want to do the aviation thing so i may pass on that, dno ill decide in september when i has to
