Lazy Thursdayyyys

I love thursdays :) Don't have to get out of bed until about 10, when I can take my time to get in the shower and then get to college for ICT catch up at 12 :) Good times! But I have work tonight at half 11, and currently don't have any money to get home. It would be alot easier if my mum said I could ride my bike home, but she's like "You NEED to get a taxi!". What she doesn't understand is that I can't afford to get a taxi home twice a week! So unless she wants me to walk or get a ride home with a stranger, I don't really have any choice? To be honest, I shouldn't have spent all my money, because I was trying to save it. But i've set up an Incentive Saver account and it currently has £10 in it! Wooo. Basically, if I don't touch it I get 3% interest on it a month .. so that's like an extra £3 at the moment! And it should only go up from there, because i'm not planning on touching it! Also, my mum did say to me that she'd pay for my lunches at the moment seeing as i'm still in fulltime education .. which i've paid for because I don't like asking her for money. That is resulting in me having zero funds at the moment :) Funtimes. And also, I was meant to get paid from The Square on friday, but my manager only told me on monday (Because I texted him first asking when the payday was!) that he's messed up my bank details so there's a cheque for me on his desk. So I could have had money .. so it's kind of not my fault! LOL! Funny way of looking at it. But i'm still stuck with the dilemma of how i'm planning to get home tonight. My mum was like: "Sort it out!" My parents won't let me get the night bus home, or ride my bike .. so they choose the most expensive form of transport. Great one. Not my choice .. it's theirs. So really .. i'm a student, I can't afford taxis everywhere! Jeeeeeeeez. Right, I think i'm going to go have a shower in a minute so I can avoid using the hairdryer.

I had my interview at Waitrose on Monday (Which I was unsure about .. because I came across a bit try-hard I think!), but then they rang me on Tuesday morning and asked me back for a second interview! It's on Friday at 6PM. I'm going to be riding my bike there (Whether my parents like it or not!), because it's in Portswood and if you want to take a bus you have to bus to town first and then switch, which is completely pointless and time consuming. So yeah .. bike riiiiide. Woo! Let's hope I get it, because I think it's over a pound more than i'm on at my other job! :) It's not like I want to leave WHSmith but they won't offer me fulltime work when I finish college so I don't really have a choice! I've also applied for TGI Friday's, and they sent me an email on the 25th of Feb (a week ago now!) and said they'd recieved my application, and they'll inform me about the next steps in the application process .. but mehh. Taking too long! I would love a job there though, it would be so much fun!

Adam's offering to pay for my taxi home tonight. That's sweet of him, because he doesn't want me riding my bike home at 3 in the morning. That's fair enough, but it's annoying that i'm restricted because they encouraged me to get the job so that I can earn more money, and it's being blown on taxi's? I'm working on Saturday and there's a night bus I can get for like £2, but my mum won't let me take it so i'm going to have to get a taxi which is going to cost 5 times that amount? How is that fair? I know they're looking out for my safety but I don't really have a choice! Right, i'm going to check where the night bus goes from on Saturdays .. I wonder if there's a bus running at 3AM tomorrow morning? I'll check.. Cya!
