Waking Up, Finally It's Sunny

I woke up a while ago! It was strikingly sunny and it still is, what a lovely day!

So the votes have been counted for next period's election and resulted in a 'hung parliament' (no political party has an absolute majority of seats). People will punch you if you voted for 'tories' (conservatives) and even harder if you voted for the SNP (left-wing liberal nationalism).
The only thing you're allowed to vote for is the labour party. That's socially acceptable. Which is strange considering that more or less all of the UK parties have been proved corrupt and immoral at one point or another... Well I can't vote so no one's gonna hurt me.

Now I'm going to shower and study and then I'm off to the flat viewing.

Everyday Library Activities

Eating Hobnobs and drinking Lucozade. I'm still at the library studying, if that's what I can call it. (No quotas on how effective my studying has to be in order for it to qualify as 'studying')! Yes, I'm all wrapped up in a blanket of economic terms.

And I am appalled to realise that the UK minimum wage for people aged 18-22 is just under £5!! Compare this to Denmarks recommended equivalent of £10. Harsh. Poor peeps working for minimum wage.
