Reading troubles
As much as I love the fact that I don't need to buy textbooks while I'm over here...I hate the fact that I can never seem to find the things I need to read at the library. :| Everyone takes them out forever, when they know that the rest of the class needs to read from them also! fdfjdklsfhsdkj /rage.
I hate buying textbooks, but my god do I miss having my own copy of things just in my room. They're there, and in my room all the time; I don't have to go scrounging through the library in hopes that the book that I need to read for the next class is there.
And I still wish the school was a bit closer. It's a two mile walk, which is really nice at times, but at others, I just want it to be closer to me. Though I should just shut up and take the bus there, but I don't want to spend the money to do so. Also, walking 4 miles a day back and forth is really good exercise. And I've been running, too! Though I'm not sure if I will be able to today, with all the readings I need to go find and do. I was going to run down to the school, but I need to carry my backpack with me, and I really don't like running with anything on my back, so maybe if I get the chance later I'll head out.
Though I am sore as hell, so maybe I'll rest today, and go out tomorrow. I mean, it's not like I'll be doing nothing; I'm still gonna be walking around a lot. Which is okay.
I'm thinking about starting one of my essays this weekend. Maybe the one for Gender and Politics, because I'm doing a presentation for it next week, and so I need to do more research anyway. Hm...yeah, I'll try and do that.
And probably going out to a pub this weekend! I'm excited.
