waa! waa! waa! Textbooks are soooo~oo expensive!

It's called rent.  Or tuition for that matter.  Think big before you start goin' on about costs.
Rocky: you do know what an A-bomb is, right?
Bullwinkle: A-bomb is what some people call our show!
Rocky: I don't think that's very funny...
Bullwinkle: Neither do they, apparently!

Other things are more expensive so textbook costs aren't important/financially painful hurr hurr hurr

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over all the gay.

Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

Ah, that's the rub.  Rent and tuition you have control over.  Books are bendoverandtakeit.  'sides, the cost difference between rent and books isn't that large when there aren't 8 million people trying to fit in 1 million slots, so clearly your point is moot for everyone else here ('cept Sopko)!

(Also of course only super was actually whining.  Everyone else was telling him to shut up~)

<NotMiki> I mean, we're talking life vs. liberty, with the pursuit of happiness providing color commentary.

For rent, you get a place to live.  For tuition, you get education.  For textbook costs, you get... books.  Often ones you will never read again.  Sometimes ones you don't even really need for anything other than busywork questions.  Or different editions of books you already have, because the professor insists on everyone having the exact edition of The Cerci that she wants, because she wants to 'support the college bookstore' and therefore selects some godforsaken 1970 printing that isn't even listed on Amazon and costs $30 in the bookstore even though it only contains one play.  Ahem.

Total here is going to come to something over $400 for books.  DLcon status still up in the air.

Hey, look, ANOTHER time where NotMiki tries to come in, roll his eyes at us for whining about something, and makes himself look like a moronic mongoloid jackass in the process.  I'm surprised.  No.  Really.

So the first half week of school is almost over. I really hope I don't have lab this week. (What kind of monster schedules their ONLY LAB ON FRIDAY? GRAH.)

That's too bad. I usually have labs on Tuesdays.

Also, the cafeteria here has the best brownies and I am gradually falling under their siren song of chocolatey goodness.

Yeah, most of my labs are during the not-Friday days, but... well, I have TAing for a lab on Monday, night class on Tuesday, research on Wednesday, lab on Thursday and Friday, so my afternoons are once again pretty packed.

Haha.  School doesn't start for me until after MLK day.  Compare your lives to mine and then kill yourselves.
