Feel Good Time


Yay!

Life is good.

Im feeling good. (Well actually, I have the sniffles, a raw cough and a sore throat with no likely chances of it being "soothed" in a lift...)

But other than that, all is Coolies in the land of Azuric.

Everything seems to be going well also, without wanting to jinx anything. (This is the point where I look up to see a piano falling from the sky or something.)

I got my student finance forms/booklets/guides today. It seems an entire forests worth of documentation.
And Im confuzed, I get a "student loan" right?
And that covers my living expenses right?
Or does that cover my tuition fees?
Or both?
And can I get a student loan from a bank also?
Or just a student account? With an overdraft and "low" interest rates?

Well actually it seems like I've already got one .
Imagine my horror when I checked my balance at the ATM the other day to find that funds are £14.36 -

"-" ?
What the hell is "- " ?!
I owe them money?!
I'll have to go to the worlds local bank and sort it out because I know I didnt use that account for anything.
Ooh! Potential bank error in my favour, collect £50? Or is that just wishfull thinking?
They converted my current account to a student one for me when I turned 18.
That was rather annoying of them.
Does this mean that I dont get the free gift they normally tempt you with?

So anyway, in conclusion, Im going to be poor. As a student. In London.

But, I have a plan!

And it goes something like this...
After exams finish, go throw CVs around everywhere.
Get job in well known chain store. Preferably a high-street mens clothing store.
Work Weekends till school finishes.
Work relatively full-time over summer holidays.
Save up loads of money.
Buy essential student items such as a laptop and multiple wardrobes of clothing. (This is where staff discount comes in handy! ;-)
As its a chain store, transfer job over to London branch.
Work in London whilst studying.

Therefore I have money, and better social life, and meet more people.

How exciting!

And I think im going to ask for an Oyster Card for my birthday.

But anyway, back to reality,
I better go deal with a maths paper thats making me feel guilty.
