I think I can safely say that, at this precise moment in time, I am poorer than I have ever been before. And it sucks.
As time goes on, more and more of my friends are setting up in The Real World, bringing in a salary and even starting to save (for a rainy day, presumably). An unfortunate consequence of this is that I'm having to miss out on a lot of social occasions due to my lack of finances.
When we were all poor students, we all lived cheap and rarely went beyond the confines of DCU to socialise. These days, most of the same people wouldn't be caught dead in a student bar whereas I simply can't afford to go out anywhere else unless I 'pre-booze' (as one of my friends calls it) or stay sober.
Cinema, theatre, gigs and the likes are also off the menu for me at the time being. At the moment, I don't even know how I'm gonna pay for my next couple of months' rent and it's a scary, scary feeling.
