Every week i head towards the "big smoke" up in Dublin from my country home of Sligo. I take the bus to my adopted home in Dublin.The bus is the first evidence I'm on this elusive budget which i attempt to stick to each week. I simply cannot afford the extra ten euro that would get me a comfortable seat on the train, and lets face it save me from those odd people who refrain from being normal. I get off at the bottom of O'Connell street and head to the Dublin-bus bus stop to attempt perhaps to make my way to the gateway student village in Ballymun. As i get off the rare number 4 bus i nip into the shop to buy some milk and bread, bare minimum survival materials. I finally make it to my "home" unpack and check my wallet, €50 and some change on a Sunday evening, living the life so i am.!
As you may have guessed I'm a student attending DCU and attempting to live on €75 a week
