    well just finished my first week as a CAMHS nurse (child and adolescent mental health services) and it's all I could wish for, but with the working a month in hand thing I've got nothing to live on for a month so going to try and spend nothing until 26th November, when hopefully I will get a good wage :) thankfully I've had some practice at living on fresh air lol

    Oh well day one of spending nothing is upon me! the car is full of diesel and my mum has invited me round for tea so no excuses!! Just heard that I may be getting a few days pay at the beginning of November so it may not be that bad otherwise I have £22 to last me a month lol
