"SQUEEZE EVERY PENNY"

Helllloooo Credit Crunch. Is it me, or is that all we're hearing about? I suppose it doesn't really effect me, per say, because I'm still mothered enough to not know too much about it (Result!).
Even so, living on a student loan, i suppose i can kind of relate. I'm afraid Ive said a fond farewell to Foxs Hob Nob biscuits and had to welcome Smart Price chocolate digestives...not all bad, I've got used to the cardboard taste (Yum).

Saying that, being a student does have serious advantages. Living just on the outskirts of London, the train and tubes have become my new best friends...whether it be popping to Sutton to see Buns, or to tease myself with Marc Jacobs in Selfridges. Either way, i can get there for less then a tenner with my student rail card (£1.90 to Sutton and £6 something to London, for all them fact fans out there).

On top of that,my spanking new NUS card has seen my signature disappear due to the amount of times I've whipped that baby out for 10% discount on clothes, food and cinema outings. As much as its my saviour, I'm pretty sure i didn't need that top in 3 different colours and spent more then i saved...but you only have a student loan once, right?
