Well not alot happening, not been paid yet which is a stress so have a ten pound note to my name... Hoping my wages go in today..
Been having a real good think and I'm looking for jobs round and about now and closer to college.. I don't want to give up my job as I love it and it works really well but it is an hour away from home and with winter coming its only gonna get harder.. I'm hoping I can stick it out till the end of the year graduate then hopefully find a job (anything anywhere) or possibly go back to Australia.. Days like today I wish I had a full time job... Electric went off last night while I was in the bath came down and there was water coming through the ceiling (again) so got LL round and there's a leak in the bath.. so LL is coming to fix that and the heating (which has been off for months) when he gets chance.. If we are lucky might be before Christmas.
Can't look at other private rents as sis doesn't work full time hours and obviously I'm student and self employed.so they won't look at me twice. Applying to go go the council list but we will never get to the top of the list.
Feel so so down.... and cold.

*hug* to warm you up!
Did you get the heating fixed? I wouldn't like to be without it in this weather, regardless of how much I love my bed!!
:D Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -

Well all go here.. Signing new tenancy agreement on Monday all being well then moving 2nd weekend in December... It's gonna be so stressful but can't wait.. Will be so much nicer and cheaper rent only downside is I ll have to find a different job but to be honest being self employed isn't really working for me...
Anyway I'm having a lovely 4 days in Paris with my best friend it's lovely! Xx:wave:0 -

Hello everyone,

Thanks HAW
Hope your well! :wave:0 -
So here's that SOA, because of moving I've given up my job as it would have meant traveling 2 hours up and down dale and in winter it wouldn't have been possible, so at the moment I'm applying for every job going and will be living solely off my student loan.
