Weekly budget for a 1st year

Lucario · 2012-09-06 18:27:37

I'm moving to Galway tomorrow for college and I'm just wondering how should I budget. I mean, what will be enough for the week? I've my accommodation paid for so that's all the bills gone, won't be taking a bus, so basically I'll only need to spend on food, clothes, going out.. etc. If anyone could give me a general amount…

How much money do you have per week?

The first few weeks are the most expensive.

That's kind of what I'm trying to find out. It's in my bank so I'm just wondering what would be the average to spend in a week.

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
