fanastic news - I'm eligible for Centrelink payments!!
after weeks of thinking that i might not be able to afford to stay here and go to uni, they finally rang me today with the good news. the even better news is that i'm getting more than i was hoping for, meaning that i can actually stop worrying about money so much now.

!! this brings so much relief right now, and it takes so much off my mind. i think my housemates will be relieved that i'll stop being such a nutcase now ;)
