Now, I'm nearing the end of my university experience, going into my 3rd and final year of my degree. But, I know some of you will just be starting. It's scary, yes, but will honestly be some of the best years of your life. And in order to help a little, I've created a quick list of some of the things I've learnt over the years. (Learn through my mistakes and empty purse).
- No matter how many surveys you complete, you will properly need a proper job. Most places are understanding of University timetables so get your CV out there as soon as you can- before everyone else gets in there first!
- When you spend money, put the receipt on 'Receipt Hog'. This handy app uses your receipts for surveys whilst you get 'coins' in return. The coins eventually add up and you can cash them in on Paypal. An extra £5 here and there never hurt anybody.
- I know when you first move out, it can be very daunting that you have to cook for yourself. That being said, try not to have toooo many takeaways as it will absolutely drain your bank account! Save your money for takeaways with your new friends, rather than just having one all to yourself. (That way you get to split delivery as well!)
