Had my annual review at work last week, and I was worried about it (I always feel like I'm not doing enough, like I'm lazy, because I get distracted a lot, and working from home doesn't help sometimes), but it went really well!
I'm getting a pretty hefty raise, especially now I'm working full time. Holy shit this is just... gonna make some stuff a lot easier, y'know? Especially since I only have 1 more year of payments left on my graduate loan.
I don't want to go crazy but there's some small things it'll be nice to have the money for, like booking an actual hotel room for myself when I go somewhere instead of staying in youth hostel dorm rooms where I inevitably end up on the top bunk of a bunkbed (which I hate) and have a shitty night sleep. Not gonna be booking a penthouse suite or anything, but just being able to get a decent night's sleep when I go to events is going to be *lovely*.

Also, quite probably gonna try to go private to get an ADHD diagnosis because it has been a *year* and i have heard nothing from the NHS.
Also got reminded by my boss that each year we get £250 to spend on something related to work. Since I work for a game company... I am *totally* planning to wait until black friday and get a Switch XD
It's just so weird. I never thought I'd be in this position of having a job that I don't hate, where I feel appreciated and relatively secure and have adult things like a pension.
