there's probably 191223423353 topics of people bitching about this...

but i f**king get pissed off buying books. i just bought my italian book and it's like 300 pages total and a little paper work book and it cost f**king 196 dollars. WHAT THE HELL. THIS IS BULLSHIT. i have no clue why this book should cost as much as it does. it's not even a big hard cover book.

f**k this. so uh, have you bought your books? were you surprised by any of the prices? did your smallest most useless class end up costing you more than your actual major classes?

chick in line in front of me, her total cost was like 800+ dollars. i felt worse for her.

I don't have any super expensive books this year (probably because I'm just a freshman who's taking pretty easy courses first semester...), so I'm not too pissed off. Plus I bargained with this girl to lower her prices, so I'm going to get them 22% cheaper than how much the bookstore is selling the used ones for. =D

I am angry that I can't find any of the books I need for my English or Graphic Design courses, though! The English book is written by my prof and the bookstore doesn't carry it anymore or something. Ughhhh!!!!

^i'm hoping i don't end up having to buy anything for my graphic design class. that will be a relief after classes like 3d design were i was spending $30-50 every couple weeks for supplies. that adds up fast.


i spent 350 today total, mostly because i only have 3 classes that require real books since my other two are studio art classes. not that it's really that great though since in the end i'll probably spend more than that in art supplies on those two classes.


that's a lot of copying tung. yeah this dumbass italian book is of course a sealed wrapper book
