shade184Finally getting Centrelink sorted out. They still have to contact my parents, so we'll see how that goes. However! They've upped my payment a little, so I'm now potentially eligible for rent assistance and I get backpay from when I got kicked out. Fuck yes. That's my follow-up driving test right there, should I fail my first. And if not, that's my first contribution towards my car.
Should my parents not derail my attempts (they maintain that I left, rather than I was kicked out - NOT THAT IT EVEN MATTERS, HAHA), it'll be upped by about this much again, which will mean I'm getting enough to pay rent at a proper place, as well as rent assistance!
However, I've decided I'm going to stay here if I can. It's a great environment, board would be cheap (if I'm even paying it! at the moment I'm just doing chores and stuff to help and they freaking love me here), and I could save for a car and other stuff in the meantime.
