A worryful month
I just checked my bank balance.
After an evening out with a couple of friends last night at Starcity, Surf's Up and Old Orleans are reflecting to be quite expensive after all, especially when paying for the husband as well as myself because Unite are so desperate to take his first rent installment so he too is now skinny, in many senses of the word.
I got paid on Friday but I now only have a couple of hundred pounds to last me until the 14th of September and I don't think that it's going to happen. I owe father a good £500 for my car insurance/road tax/wing repair so it looks like I'm going to be left with pittance by the end of this week.
NSandI could do with giving me a win as it's been nearly five months since I received anything and I have, like, thousands of pounds invested in those bonds. I am actually considering withdrawing a couple of hundred quid from my bonds account to last me till next pay day as I can't bear not going out and doing cool stuff like drinking, smoking, swearing and laughing at politically questionable jokes told by silly old punters up town.
I'm finding that having little-to-no money is quite distressing and depressing. I would love to know how the 'unemployed' get by and how people that work stupid hours for shit money find the will to be able to save and set up a home and all that. A current friend of mine is moving back in with his mother after a few years of renting a council flat because he can't afford it. Saying that, he does work part time and it's not like he's in any rush, he's younger than me for goodness sake.
Jamie and Kate are moving in together next month. It's going to be weird having them live all the way in Stafford, but I think things will be cool. They both have proper-ish jobs now and are somewhat 'sorting their lives out'. I'm happy for them.
I absolutely cannot wait to leave home and I'm sure I've mentioned this before. I am SO ready I'm practically packing my suitcases. For now, though, I'm trying hard to focus on getting back into the mood for university so I can get this whole right-of-passage over and done with.
On the upside, the first installment for my student loan this year goes into my account on... erm, I don't know but I know it's next month sometime. Yay.
I'm fucking obsessed by money, I swear. I need to stop gambling on the National Lottery website.
I have to go to work, now. God, help me.
The week ahead looks murky.
