School is SOOOO hard!

I started school this week.

Already, I have a paper due tomorrow, 125 math problems assigned (which I don't even know if I'm doing correctly!) and several other assignments.

Dear Lord was I out of my mind when I signed up for 6 classes?

College Algebra.

American History 2.

Sociology.

Developmental Psychology.

Interpersonal Communications.

Spanish.

This semester is 3 days in, and already kicking my ass.

Wonderful, huh?

Now, on to my next rant: The cost of TextBooks!

The school is constantly using new editions. Well, that's just fine & dandy, but how much has changed about Spanish in the past year that forces me to spend $144 on a book? I mean, come on! If it were any type of science course I would have no problem. But Spanish? The language hasn't changed in a LONG time... I'm pretty sure using an older edition of text books would not have made a big difference in the long run.

The college has a book buy back program. What a frikkin joke. Honestly, if I pay $130 for a book and they offer me $35 for it, I would rather it set on my shelf collecting dust. So that's what my old books are doing. Collecting dust.

Anyways, this is end of rant. No updates for a while. School is killer.
