To put this into context, I will be going home for 2 weeks and then to uni. Therefore I will have a chance to see friends I haven't seen in a while and go out to eat/drink. That'll cost money. Also, I want to buy a 19" Samsung HD TV, which is £175 (pretty good price, I tihnk) and I have an Xbox 360, so I need a TV, but of course I could buy a cheaper one.
Also, I have a student overdraft of over one thousand punt, which I am pretty much at the end of. Maybe I should just use the money to clear that. I will get my student finance at the start of Oct though, so that's not a major concern.
I would also like to travel at some point.
And I don't know when I will have this much money again.

That's a good suggestion-it won't cost much and it will enrich my life. :)
But I have lotsa books already, so I prolly won't buy a book.
Are there any books you're gonna buy next payday?

cynicism is best redirected into joyless humor.
tractern get a tv that can also work as a computer monitor. i think most newer HDs have the ports.
go with friends but hit happy hours and dives (the hipster ones vs the ghetto ones) instead of the trendy posh joints. buy whatever the euro equivalent is to Pabst Blue Ribbon (cheap beer that doesn't taste that bad) and get a little pre lubed before going out so you don't spend as much.
also, instead of buying individual entrees share a couple appetizers.

Not bad idea!
I might try to do that with half of it, then as part of my new thing of making an effort to live frugally, I could try not to get to the end of my student overdraft when I receive student loan + grant. Yeah, that sounds like a plan! ^^
Nice one- good advice! :)

Yeah, the one I had before did work with my laptop. Only thing is, I wasn't sure if it would have been big enough for me to have been able to read the text, whilst internet browsing and stuffs...
Yeah, that is the best way to do it when going out. To be honest, I prolly won't go out very much to pubs and that, cos I only have 1 friend who is still living in Shrewsbury, my home. But still, when I go to uni, I will certainly heed this advice.
I don't usually buy entrees, though... I'm not that posh! :D

That you've yet to learn the difference between a glib internet based comment and some assessment based on a detailed study of you whinging.

how is that a self-delusion? One thing i do not understand is that fucked up method of yours in which you word your sentences.
Maybe you can break it down slower for me so that i can understand first what glib internet based comment and which assessment you are referring to, so that i may learn and distinguish between the two.

fishing tackle.
You can spend time fishing instead of wasting money on other activities. You get outside and enjoy the outsides rather than being a fat lazy bitch sittin in playin on ur twatbox360. You can eat what you catch thus playing up to your frugal living pish and fishermen are guardians of the outside, often spotting cases and causes of pollution befor others and they do alot of good work improving degraded water courses.
only question is can you deal with killing and gutting something?

"only question is can you deal with killing and gutting something?"
that, my friend, is the real question.
look all i know is, if the world started going to shit, and i happened to survive in the wilderness, i don't know if i'd be picking flowers for food, or killing a cow with a sharp blade for food.
I'd probably become a meat eater because it's the safest way to eat when dealing with the risk of infection. Think about it, when you cook meat, your killing alot of the harmful bacteria. And we all know how to start fires. vegetables and plants on the other hand are covered in shit, harmful stuff, am i right?

how so? if its being taken home to be eaten its fine killing it and leaving it on the bank would be pretty shit thing to do, on the other hand just catching it and then throwin it back well thats mean, making the poor fish late for his appointments.

lol no, in general hooking a fish in it's guts is pretty fuckin shitty, if you were the fish.
I used to fish a lot and i loved it, but now im just like, shit i might not wanna be that fish in my next life. Especially because of all the random places that they get hooked in. like the eye

Ampi Max, sorry if I am overreacting as usual, but are you really reducing me as a person to an internet troll? This would sadden me greatly. I don't know why, but I take you very seriously, though I have never and will never meet you. I find myself reacting quite strongly in terms of emotion when you say you are pissed with me.
Maybe I am just a tit, I dunno...
Maybe I should get out and meet people and take them seriously, rather than people on a MB.
But I would like to do both, with people in reality and on the net.
Hope you're not too annoyed. You're my world!
