So yeah, I have 22 books this semester--TWENTY-TWO. They break down to: 13 comic books (for "comic books as literature!), 4 poetry books, 2 anthologies, two books on journalism, and one book on mountaineering. Who says my interests are a little ambiguous? Anyway it's pretty obvious that I won't be buying my books at my school's bookstore (by the way the subtotal includes all possible used books available). I got the same list on amazon and it dropped about $200 but it's still approximately $400. The clencher is that not one is above eighty dollars, I don't have any biology or physics books that are notorious for requiring indentured servitude in order to afford them. I am an english major! We don't have any money, don't they realize that! Still I suppose it is my fault for taking four english classes in one semester.... >_< I don't know how I'm going to do it all. I'm going to start regreting this in exacly 5 weeks.
RA-ness *officially* picks up tomorrow. I'm axious to get see all my friend again, they're all such awesome people. I've missed that closeness we all share. There are a couple new RA's this semester replacing some that left last semester, and I know that I don't have to worry about them not fitting in--because all of the RA's are so appecting. I'm also excited to see my residents and start programming stuff, I have a lot of ideas and I can't wait to get them going. Between that and the metric ton of reading I'm going to have, this semester is going to be rather insane. Still I know if I can kepp my head above water, it's going to be really awesome.
