The Loan Is Through

Does everyone know what a student loan is?

It's a loan from the government to buy books and houses with. However, if like me you've bought all your books, houses, and baked beans, you can use it to get very drunk.

That's what I did last night. I got dared to drink a load of pink alcopops (10) in the union, and then we went to a club called Sex With Robots, and I danced with some nice girls with assymetrical fringes, and I said "This is a MSTRKRFT remix of an Acid Jacks song!", which they said made me funny, which is odd because I wasn't trying to be! Everything else I was saying was funny, too!

Then we went somewhere else so my friend could be sick, and then we went to a bar and there were some girls there called sophie and Elly, and Elly said I looked like Jude Law, which is great because she's the third girl to say that! And they thought I was funny as well. Then Sophie said elly only said I looked like Jude Law because she didn't have her glasses on and was drunk! Shut up Sophie!

Then I'm not sure what happened. Then I was in the library at about 11 writing this. I think I've had a really good time!

I got the house, the books, I don't drink, smoke or eat baked beans and now there's a grand in my account.
I can't see any reason not to get some ice in my grill.

Would you be being 'ironic'? That would be a very good reason not to do so.

Twelve days! Twelve days, goddamn. It's alright for you, yes it is. You loans coming through on the first day of your term.

But me, you see, I'm on Japan time. That means semesters, not terms. That means that, naturally enough, that Brighton and Hove LEA don't give me my loan at the start of every term, but rather ten, maybe twenty days in.

I'm living on rice and tea and cliche. Entirely involuntary. Can't even buy a bus ticket to town without going hungry the next day.

I really, really want to get drunk.

I wasted everyone else's youth.

Time machines are great.

Student loans on the other hand are the Devil's work.

It's been eight years since I graduated and I still haven't paid mine off.

Mind you, I have started. Only two grand to go!

I think I'm getting memories now. I think I get a memory back for every little bit of hangover sick that comes just to near the top of my mouth, and then goes away - I think I remember pushing Elly on a swing, or opening a jar of panther's breath or something.

Sophie was an East Yorkshire girl. She hated those West Yorkshire girls - she called them 'Wezzies'.

Ignore those memories Allecto, they're artificial downloads by The Conspiracy to keep you asleep. Remember who you are...
