    Likely will need a job, got some savings but rather not eat them up to fast, then again the life of a poor student does sound fun haha. Fair enough, not worked for any of those kind of companies before, so zero experience with that kind of thing, not to sure what I could do to get a job might work at adenture island or something in the summer for extra dosh. but goodluck with your studies/looking for a job.
