Looks like high blood pressure and heart attacks are on the horizon, along with many mental disorders

OK so here’s what my daily schedule was like before xmas…

Get up at 7am
Get bus at 8.30
Arrive at uni just before 10
Work in the lab until 6-7pm at best (often I was stuck in there until almost 8), with maybe half an hour break for a quick lunch at best
Arrive home at 7.30-8.30pm at best
Eat/shower
Get into room at 9pm at the ealiest
Write up lab book (which maybe takes half an hour) and work (I need the money desparatly this year)…maybe get some coursework done if lucky until maybe 1am at best, but most likely I’ll end up in bed between 2 and 3am.

Now I’ve just found out that the building my research group is moving to is four miles away from the main campus, right at the north of the city. My journy is expensive and long enough when I get the direct bus…but this is going to destory me. Unlike the bloody PhD students, I have classes in the main campus. How the hell do I juggle this? Travelling four miles through a big city is not easy. Fucking hell. And then there’s the extra cost. I could cry.
