Bummer about your work hours
Will you be going for a part time job or a full time and stop the 6 hours?
And yes, things will get better

I'm gonna keep the 6 hours I have as there will be ovetime again at christmas and things and it's flexable to fit in around college...
Not had a good day today found out I've failed one of my exams majorly... I'll have to make up the marks on my assignment or I'll have to re take the module.
It's made me realised that I need to take time out to study.. working all my days off isnt doing me any good... hard tho when my money head goes on...

Hello all got a nice suprise today... The money I got from college which I heard about earlier in the which I thought was from the ALF wasn't it a grant all students get for 1st year.. so today I got home to a letter saying the ALF have awarded me £300.. So happy as it will take the weight off my mind...
Off I go to sort some Ebay items to post...

But what do I do with said £300? Do I throw it all at my CC then pay it off completely when I next get paid? It's a tempting idea but not sure... I have my student loan to pay my house bills for the next 3 months....
Ideas?

Great news about the £300

Maybe you could throw £100-£200 extra at your card and leave the rest for bills. No point putting it all towards the card then leaving yourself short and having to borrow.Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Hello HAW How are you?
I'm gonna split it.. half on CC then other half for emergencys.... Sister found out she didn't get the job she had the interview for but they gave her really good feedback so she's happy.
Two things I have sold on Ebay the buyers haven't paid it's so frustrating!!
Have a good weekend everyone

Hello all, don't feel like I've been here for ages!!
Not alot to say still throwing money at the credit card and have worked out should have it paid off by June. Then hopefully when I get a summer job sorted I'll be able to get my friends mum paid off..
I failed my other exam at college
I can still pass the year with coursework so all might not be lost.. It's getting to me a bit at the moment feel like I should know alot more than I do and I feel really really thick and it's scaring me...
Also been really really down lately as met a lovely man before christmas and all was going well.. it was brill took me out lots etc had a lot in common a good laugh etc.. So after making him wait for along time and making sure it felt right I stayed the night then we went on another date all was good and now he's just gone completely wierd on me and I'm gutted... I asked him outright what was going on and he's not replied he did text asking how I was tho with a million kisses on the end? So I am attempting to hold my head up high and move on.. I'm not gutted he doesn't want to be with me that's fine it's the fact he doesn't have the balls to say it...
but do I really wanna be with someone who plays games and has no balls?
Nope.
So feeling very stressed down and confused and majorly fed up...

Hey

Sorry to hear about your exam. It's good that you still have your coursework to fall back on. Keep at it
Ah guys are weird. Good for you for asking 'what's up' outright and holding your head high. If he wants to be a d!!! then so be it. His loss. Try not to let it get to you *hug*Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Thanks HAW, I'm just sad I kept my guard up for so long and made him wait and he still did this... but his loss.. Hope your well?
Welly xx:wave:0 -
Yes it is his loss. Fair play to making him hang on too

My ex (and first) kept plaguing me about that, and I kept putting him off, so then the plaguing turned into blackmail (pretty much - said he'd break up with me if I didn't!) Made him wait 2 years :rotfl:
Yes all ok with me thank you
More settled now at work now that I know my job is safe for the time being!! Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0
