I'm a fellow skint student. I want to go skating but that means I can't go out with brother and his girl on sunday! I have £15 to my name and the skate rink costs £6 and travel £4.50 per time :(
Gahh I hate being a skint student and can't find a job for toffee...
I am now not going to use this account as my main one from now on.
If you want my new account PM me. xxx
I have about £40 to last me until september. Ive got something planned every weekend until I leave for uni, I may have to start selling stuff soon -_- xx
There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
Mmm I have about -£1400. Note the minus. I really hope they'll extend my overdraft in September. No idea how the hell I'll ever pay it back... I wish the job market was more open to students :(
Wake me up before I change again
Remind me the story that I won't get insane
Tell me why it's always the same
Explain me the reason why I'm so much in pain.
I'm one of the lucky one's who's managed a job, however, I didn't get my last student loan because of temporarily withdrawing from uni.
Currently on £40-£60 a week, if I'm lucky, and it's bullshit, due to bills, bills, bills, and places I have to be and needing money for a festival and blahhhhh.
Is however much better than when I had no job, and no money for food just before I got this job, I survived that last week on a hand out from Flem's mum, and I continue to only be able to survive thanks to Flem and her parents helping me out when I lost one of the two small jobs I got.
If you found a job for toffee it probably wouldnt help either :(
Tehe :P
Being a skint student sucks, but I'm really lucky that my job from last year was happy to take me back for a bit this Summer.. Sadly all of the money I'm earning is going on trying to pay off my overdraft.. So technically I have no money.. but the bank does.. and I'm spending theirs. Haha. Oh :(
"Be nice. Think happy thoughts. Champion silver linings. Love all things (not just cute things like babies and kittens) & when you do love - love like they do in power ballads (you know like on a cliff with the wind in your hair and your eyes shut, knowing you'll never know love like this). Watch out for dog poo. Smile at people - even grumpy ones. Remember anything is possible & whatever you do always try to look on the bright side."
I'm pretty skint just now.
My account has a grand total of £7.44 in it and I've been searching for a job since before Christmas and just nowhere is actually wanting new staff.

I'm not in my overdraft, by £1.87. Good times. My grant took me out of my overdraft, so now I'm doing my internship during the week and working all hours at weekends, I need to pay my rent on Monday. Bad times. Thank god for final year sized overdraft.
I wish money really did grow on trees, or that rather than working for toffee you could pay bills in it!

sigh i have -£1000 and can't find a job...
and i'm going on a few holidays.
so screwed
xxxx
As a little kid you believed in fairytales,
that fantasy of what your life would be: white dress; prince charming who would carry you away to a castle on a hill.
You closed your eyes and had complete and utter faith.
Eventually you grow up. One day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears.
But the thing is, it's hard to let go of that fairytale entirely because almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope, of faith,
that one day they will open their eyes and it will come true.
They don't do student loans for MAs, so am having to take out a bank loan. I'm going to die educated and penniless... *sob*
:( been there and paying fees SUCKS! i havent recovered (then the uni had the nerve to ask me to self fund to go on after!). i saved up parts of my loans over my student life only to waste it on MA studnet life (and this time not on the fun student stuff!). might have been better to just beg, wouldnt have so much debt then :(
I want to give you the world if you just stay with me tonight,
I want to give you the world if you just hold me tight!
