A taste of what life will be

I'm not the only student in the world, I'm aware of it, but this sick feeling in the pit of my stomach having to worry so much about money doesn't seem to be affecting everyone. I can't sleep, I feel like I'll never be able to eat anything but white bread at 50p a loaf ever again, there's a constant reminder in the back of my mind that I still don't know how much our quarterly bill is going to cost me.

Is this what life is like? A constant scraping for cash, an anger at colleagues picking up the extra shifts before you, giving up things you'd like to do for what you have to do - work, work, work.

If so, it's not a life I want.
