I've just finished watching "The Pursuit of Happyness". Whilst the film may have its faults, the theme cut deeper with me right now than it normally would. As if pure (black) magic, I found my bank account to be less than empty merely minutes after the closing credits. My train fare to Stoke tomorrow is £7.70. I have £8 in my wallet. That is lucky I suppose.
I really hope that tomorrow can really be the start of the recovery. I should be getting paid by Mum and Dad for a couple of days of work. Then I head to Munich with SCUB on Friday - I already have my Euros stashed away for that. I did really want to cancel the trip, what with my dire financial position and the fact that the mighty WARD CORNER are reuniting on Saturday. But we do need to get away. Nat more than me - she has been amazing, and I really would be screwed without her.
It is strange, because I've been feeling a lot better at times recently. I am reading more, playing guitar, drinking less and even going for a RUN today. But I'm so down right now. This Summer I've been working more with some of the other RAs and by christ they're a bunch of self-righteous arses. This, twinned with the fact that it doesn't seem we should be expecting a payrise. On top of the long standing farce of equal pay with our colleagues.
I am being tested right now. I am angry right now. Thank fuck this song absolutely rips.
