slogging through a degree at the moment. don't believe the lies about students just bumming around having fun all the time: last year i got so poor i had to take a job on the phones at anglian windows. that was the lowest of the low... it's only one step up from prostitution in the degrading, soul-crushing, self-hatred-inducing job stakes, trust me

Tell me about it, last year i got so poor at uni i had to take a job working in Next as a "christmas replenisher" in the kids department. Doesnt sound to bad eh? Started at 5am! 4 days a week, either till 9am or 12pm, followed by a full day of lectures :evil:

Now i'm in NZ i'm not working, but uni is keeping me busy, handed in a 7500 word essay in today, and my exams start monday :(

Never mind, 4 months of summer hols (surf, surf surf) start in less 2 weeks time :D
