Today's the first day of November and already I feel like I am about to descend into hell.
Yesterday I tried to support my friend in Nigeria who's suffered a massive flood and her son has injured himself in a fall and was purple all over with a serious cut on the head. (I actually thought he was beaten up by someone horrible, that's how serious the injury is). I hoped to send some money to her through Western Union but her bank rejected the request. I haven't returned to the shop to refund my money as I wanted her to check with her bank first, in case any other attempt to send her money is rejected.
In case anyone is wondering, no, this isn't a scam. I've been video chatting with her for years and she has shown her face, clear as day. I just want to make it clear. I've learn't some hard lessons and I'm not stupid.
As for what's happened, Boris Johnson has announced a massive national lockdown, starting on Thursday. Even my parents are somewhat concerned about the situation. They maintain that it's going to be alright, I don't need money, but I don't know. I just feel like soon, we will all need to pull our weight, my nephew included, if we are to hold onto any property and keep ourselves confidently afloat. How? Well, we will burn that bridge if we cross it.
Recently my local town has advertised a job involving a street cleaner, in other words, a litter picking job that's just a walk around town and it's part-time. If I get it, I can still hold onto my benefits and I can earn some extra money. That's if I get it. Failing that, I don't know what to do. The job at my local surgery has had two developments, one, there's not as much litter as before because I did such a great job filling up 4 bags, and two, they haven't paid me, yet. This job is in writing, so they can't excuse themselves for not paying. If only I could get another car park or institute to hire me to clean up the rubbish around their premises. I would gladly help.
Yesterday I heard that Super Affiliate Accelerator, a program that promises to help you establish a 6 figure business is closing its $50 sale mid November. I could purchase it, but I can't, no small part is that if I did I would mentally overwhelm myself as University is taking up so much of my mental energy. It doesn't help that I need someone to check my work repeatedly to make sure I'm not making really stupid mistakes. Recently I took a moodle quiz and my results, to me, were unsatisfactory. I was expected to barely pass, but to my surprise I got more points than I expected but I was still not really happy with the results. I need to do better. Those moodle quizzes are vital to my final grade. I need to find a way to redo my notes so that I'm not taking it down word for word.
I also need to make a poster before December 10th. The subject I've chosen is deforestation and how we can mitigate it.
