Stupid money problems...

For the last year (before I started university) I was bringing in nice paycheques and I was living a great life. I loved going out 3 or 4 nights a week and spending on whatever the fsck I wanted. $100 at the bar was no problem. I could have supported myself just fine. Now since university has started, my funds have dwindled :( I haven't been poor like this since, well, grade 11, but it still sucks.

I feel like I want to drop out of university and just work some job and live the way I was before. I hate not bringing in the big bucks (even if it was small compared to what a university education will get me in another 4 years)...

woe is me :(

beats me, but i'm sure spending 100 bucks at the bar isn't the answer :p

just find less costly activities to do, that's my advice...

That is one of the sacrifices you make to go to school, especially if you are paying for it. But the rewards when you get out should be a nicer, high paying job.
