What shall I do with the rest of my life?

I'm graduating in the summer but I have no idea what I'll be doing next year. Here are some of my options ...

Compete with, like, 900 other teachers for the non-existent jobs in Northern Ireland

Sub indefinitely

Go to Scotland and do my induction year and hope that when I get back there will be jobs here, or at least I'll be one up on the rest of the people applying cos I have done the induction year

Go somewhere really nice (Spain, New Zealand or Canada or maybe somewhere else) and teach in an English Language school or work as a classroom assistant for a year

Sub for 6 months and then go to Spain and be a language assistant for 6

Go and do a PG or Masters or other course

Pack in teaching and get a career where there are actually jobs in this country.

If you like we could turn this into a bit of a poll and you could vote for your favourite. Well, I don't actually have the software (or know-how) to make a proper poll, but leave a comment with what you think I should do. I'll probably not listen to you but it'll be fun to see everyone else's opinion. Go on ... you know you want to.
