Man, college is so freaking expensive - I just paid $430 for all my REQUIRED books, not any of the recommended ones..... luckily I was able to put it on my student account because I only had a total of $340 dollars to my name and some of that had to be used for gas. Yep, I need a job... or 5.
I have some homework and reading to do for tomorrow. So, I'm going to do that so I don't get off to a bad start and fall behind already. The days aren't too bad, I'm at school from 8-7 Tuesday and Thursday, and then 5-8 on Monday. Only 7 of the 11 hours I spend on campus on Tuesday and Thursday are actually spent in class so the other 4 hours I spend studying, eating, and in the computer labs printing off notes, assignments, etc. so it's a good setup for me. I love having the days off so I don't get into an annoying dull pattern of class every morning, studying/homework every night, and only 2 days for a weekend. Also, after April 3rd I'll only be there from 8-3:30 because my 5-7 class is an honors class that the professor was able to get made into a 10 week rather than 16 by making it 2 hours instead of an hour and 15 minutes. Hopefully, I'll be getting a job soon so that should get rid of the stress i have dealing with money. I have to get started on figuring out stuff for my study abroad session that I want to do next year in Sydney.
