The bar/cafe owner handed me a bunch of cash last Saturday, roughly 1.5 rent's worth, saying I earned it. Not gonna say 'no' to money, but it feels weird. Even offered to hire me, but it's almost guaranteed to be impossible to balance it with studies. It's funny how, out of all the places, this is apparently where I'm this mythical 'good fit'. We agreed to keep the option open, though highly unlikely.

I'm still waiting for news from my 'first pick', got in on all the other theoretical physics programmes. Waiting is killing me, the fact I have my places secured elsewhere doesn't seem to do anything to alleviate it. Maybe it's this that sucks out all of my enthusiasm, though I suppose it just adds on a bunch of other crap.
