Anyway i am not going back to McCalls, she can shove her job.
Oh dear sorry to hear that, what happened there? Will it affect your budget badly?
Hows the first week of uni going then? Hope your enjoying it!Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0 -
she's been in a mood all week with the tills being short (even though i've not been in!) etc and took it all out on me last night over me wearing jeans....even though she wears jeans and told me i could when i started!!! And started a lot of carp about how she might have to let me go cause of it????!!!
So yeah i'm not planning on going back to be shouted...or screamed at rather.
No not really as of next week i am getting £420 a month student loan and bursary, so that plus about £300 a month from Morrisons will do me fine, as i only give my mum £150 a month (which covers rent, food, bills etc)
Summer school is really boring, and to be honest i don't feel i am even ready to go into third year now! We have a presentation tomorrow morning and i am still sitting here working away, and have no idea what i am doing!0 -
Sorry to hear about the job. Maybe its for the best though coz uni will be a lot of work. I used to hate doing presentations at uni but you soon get used to them you will do that many of them!
Hows the debt looking now?Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0 -
yeah, the strange thing is i was actually thinking of handing in my notice yesterday morning. Then all this happened last night, which just pretty much confirmed it for me.
To be honest i don't know how the accounts are looking. I spent on one of my catalogue accounts last night, after all the drama. But it was only about £45, which i can deal with. My first loan payment is a double payment of £850 on the 21st, then i get £420ish on the 7th of every month after that.
So i can pay that £45 back plus more in a week or so, thank goodness!
I also spent on the topshop card 2 weeks ago!!! I know, i know! But again i was feeling pretty down, and done it to cheer myself up!
At least now i know why i spend!0 -
Just an idea but if you know you spend on them when your feeling down, why dont you cut them up so you cant use them. I know you said you use the cards to pay the bill but im sure you could probably do it either online or by BACs?Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0

I can't pay online, you used to be able to with Dorothy Perkins, but they stopped that a while back. So the only way to pay is instore with cash and the card, or over the phone. I never actually carry them with me, unless its payday i'm going to pay money to them.
I only use them to order online.
Anyway the stuff i got from the catalogue came today, don't like them. and am sending them back0 -
Had my induction thing for uni this morning, actually pointless. The girl was younger than all of us, and just going into second year of her course.
Whereas we we are going into 3rd year.
She was talking to us like we were all straight out of school and going into 1st year. Tried to give us a tour of the campus and the library, and we have already been there a week and know where everything is!
On holiday from work this week
And was only in uni this morning for an hour, then in on Wed for an hour to register and that!
My new phone comes today as well...yippeee!
£18 a month for 250 mins and unlimited texts, and right now i am paying £30 a month for 500 mins and 500 texts.0 -

I had a pink blackberry before, but it is going on ebay!0 -
