$40 + change = far too much to pay for a USED paperback book of 300 or so pages. :/ (List price 55) I hate buying books for college.

That being said, I now have all of the books I need for college this semester yay.

I realized yesterday I should really post things in here besides sporadic fic updates. XD I really, really need to do an Otakon post - this year was /great - but am both lazy and out of time, because Mother is around all the time this week (1). Shall have to try and do that when she has students again...

1 - This essentially means I'm being put to work helping around the house and with her assorted stuff for her special tutoring program. =.= I don't mind most days, but...*sighs*

That's especially annoying, considering that the buy-back price will be something like $5. Never sell the book back to them!

I probably won't. :/ Rip offs. Most of the books were used too, so you know they were making a killing!

Did you try eBay? I hear you can get books cheaper from them then through your school. Also, what herongale said ~ Never sell it back!!! ::has a collection of old book 'cause something I spent $20 on is not worth $1 just cause it was in my room all year XD::

Can't wait to hear about Otakon!!! I was really surprised that *no one* seems to have posted about it yet. ^^;;;;;;

Good luck helping your mom!!!

I have tried stuff like that before and ended up with the wrong editions and stuff. :/ Which is really annoying.
