So yeah, in my quest to find a job of SOME description, a while back I sent all manners of emails and info out everywhere. Who'd of thunk that one of em would reply?

I totally forgot sending the request out until I got a phone call which was basically "Oh btw, here's an interview tomorrow kthnxbai"

Said interview was for me to be enrolled into Train2Game, which'll give me an actual diploma I can use to get into game designing.
So yeeeeaaaaahh.... at least this education course thing is all done at home. Now I can forget to hand in homework in the comfort of my own home!

To be honest I'm still unsure about the whole thing, the learning part seems fun don't get me wrong but it's just... I guess I can't get around the suspicion of this being fake or a scam of some kind. i've done the research and from what I can tell Train2Game does seem to be legit, but it's just... I dunno. Can't really put it into words. I've had no reason or any evidence that says I shouldn't do this, but all the same...


Well I can look at this in my view, or in a psychological view...

My view... I'm untrusting of anything that seems too good to be true and due to my personality that also places distrust on anything new...educational enviroments were never really beneficial to me in the past so that's perhaps another reason why I'm so mistrusting that this will give me a diploma that will be a great leeway into a game designing career...

From a psychological standpoint this may simply be attributed to the face that I don't like change. Anything that disturbs the equilbrium I've grown accustomed to would make me edgy and/or anxious. Since this is a rather major undertaking [2 year course costing 5k] I guess I would love a solid quantifiable reason for this to be fake so I can go back to the cosy warmth of this security blanket i call a bedroom.

I guess time will tell whether or not this is a load of bullcrap. The documents and all the jazz I looked over [And I don't mean glanced, I made her sit there for 2 hours while I read every detail... 'her' being the interviewer who came to my house] were all good and what I expected, some of the documents had a similar appearence to the documents I had to fill out for Motherwell College.

If anybody actually decided to read through this... what do you think of the situation?
