Hello!
Yes, I have been away for a very long time but personal and professional life that just took over. I was made unemployed in early April and currently looking for work in East and/or West Sussex due to the boyfriend getting into university in Hove.
This post has been in my drafts for such a long while and I never took up the chance to actually publish it. After being unemployed for 2 months, it has taught me a few things that I want to share with you guys. Being on job seekers allowance, you get £57.14 a week. For me, I don't have important house bills to pay so the only things I pay for is phone, car insurance and any other extras (bloody car)! It's hard to go from a full time wage to this slightly smaller amount. I used to buy lots of make up, clothes and everything in-between but since the massive cut in pay, it definitely makes you more money savvy. I am now only buying things that I NEED. Most of my money (if not all) is spent on petrol. Rather than filling up a full £35, I only put what I need in depending where I'm going. When I do buy the unnecessary items like food, I tend to buy what's on offer or on sale.
UPDATE 11th July 2014
After nearing 10 interviews and hundreds of miles later, last Thursday I was offered a position with a company based in West Sussex. I now have a start date and am now looking for places to live! The emotional rollercoaster ride still carries on but perseverance is a must. Keep going, keep looking to the stars and keep at it. It will be your time soon.
