Perhaps the last post was a little misleading. So to clarify..
Ive got a paid possition at one of the places where i have been volunteering. Its part time and casual. In the first instance there is around 5 weeks worth of work to do.
The prodject is to do with mood and reasoning in people with psychosis. Ill have to transcribe and score data from audiotapes.
Ive also got to stay on and volunteer for two days along side the paid work. In effect then im being paid minimum wage or bellow for the time im there. But its just so nice to actually know all this volunteering is actually getting me somewhere!!
The really great bit though: Im being encoradged to apply for a PHD on the same topic. With my supervisors support and guidence i have a fair chance of getting funding for it. That is if i deside i like the topic! (im secretly quite impressed i got asked at all!)
