So wanna hear something ridiclous? Of cours you do!! Everyone wants to know how expensive our book store (as I'm sure most book stores are) really is. So There's a book for Stage Makeup. I have to read the first 10 chapters by ... meh tomorrow. Whatever. I figure I can find it in the library and keep that one till I get a different one off the internet Like I did with ten of my other books. BUT NO!! The library here doesn't have it. I've done that with all my other books and this is the only one they don't have. So I trek again on over to the beloved book store and buy the required text, for the ridiclous price of *trumpets sound* $141.96. Now this is nothing really compared to what my roommate Nichole is having to spend on her organic chem class, something like $400 which makes mine look small. But still, the book Is set at the new price, but it doesn't look new. The cover has already been beaten up, kinda the level of someone who cared about the book but there's always wear and tear. So that's lame. But I just think that the book store is pretty much the devil, mainly because I got TEN of my other books, for about $146.00 doesn't that just seem wrong? That I could get 10 books for the price of one? Disgusting.
[edit]
I did however laugh when I noticed that I wore my "Greece on my shirt" t-shirt to Ancient Greek class today.
I also enjoyed the camera class today. I think that I like working in closer proximity than you do for stage.
