It's Been a While

I apologise for my lack of commitment to my blog, my life has been cray cray at the moment. Despite all the partying and drinking, uni is actually quite difficult. Why didn’t anyone warn me? It’s not just the work, which is super hard and there’s so much. It’s living alone, in the short time I’ve been here I have melted the toaster and shrunk one of my favourite jumpers. My room is a tip because my mum isn’t around to tidy it up for me, my washing up pile gets bigger every day and I now suffer from insomnia. Ooh and of course… I’m poor as fuck.

  When people went on about students being poor I never fully acknowledged it, but you can’t just ask your mum for a tenner, she’s not there. I haven’t stooped as low as Morrison’s own brand vodka yet and I refuse to smoke rollies because… well both are rank, so I only have myself to blame for having no money. I bloody wished I saved some from working in the summer, but I was an idiot and spent hundreds of pounds on god knows what. Fml.

  So I tried to look for a job, notice the word ‘tried’, yeah and failed. I applied to all the ‘cool’ places… Nandos, River Island, Topshop…. I got rejected. Then I applied to places that were slightly less socially acceptable, Pizza Hut, TGI Fridays… I got rejected. So I gave up for a bit, I could have stooped lower and applied to McDonalds or Primark but I just couldn’t. (Sorry to anyone who works in those places, it’s not them, it’s me) But what the fuck, I got rejected from TGI Fridays. I felt monumentally shit after that, if they didn’t want me no one would. I started worrying about how I was going to afford to live, I was considering quitting smoking and drinking… hahahaha joke. But I was worrying, I started nicking toilet roll from the SU because I couldn’t afford it. Do not even get me started on how much toilet roll is! Luckily I finally got a job in M&S over Christmas, I don’t know where this job ranks as far as being ‘cool’ but I really couldn’t give a fuck anymore. Get me da moneyyyyy.
