i always did - we got a grant back then but it was not enough to live on. in this country (uk) the easiest jobs for students to get were in bars or restaurants but i don't know the situation in your country. you probably will need to accept something unskilled or semiskilled unless you have other skills or qualifications already. if you are lucky you might be able to get something relevant to what you are studying. sorry i can't be more specific as i don't know either what you are studying or what jobs are available easily in china.

hi~JB~ it's great to see you again ! and thanks for you tips , it's really very kind of you ~!! as you've said , i indeed have very specific skill . so it's obviously that i could not find some job with high request ~~ by the way , i was majored in software engineer but i am still a sophomore .so it's not the right time for me to get a qualification ~ anyway ,i'll go out and take look ~!! thank you very much ,my friend ~ and happy everyday !

no, but now i started to search some part-time job to do, i need money, i don't hide it, i'm loking for a job i can make occasionally or something i can do during sunday; i started to hang some paper with my mobilephone number, and this paper says that i can help pther student in some subjects like matematic and english, yes my english is poor, but here in italy the student's english level is very very very low so i can help them to reach a accettable level of english, enaugh to talk with foreigners and to understand something writed in english.
