    Default I'm down $300

    ... because I just bought my books for school.

    In exactly a week, I'll be going back to school for my senior year. So when are you guys going back? What year? Are you looking forward to going back? How much do you spend on books? How active are you within the school community? What do you think Zack Morris is up to these days?

    I go to the College of New Jersey and, even though I'm a senior, I still have a year and a half left. I'm a Secondary Ed. major with a concentration in English. Since transferring to TCNJ, I haven't really done much at school. This year, though, my friend and I plan on joining a million clubs, like the Outdoors Club and the Alternative Films club. I think Zack Morris divorced Kelly and got back with that hussy from the beach resort.

    So to those that are returning or the incoming newbie freshmen, tell me about your school life. Or die.

    I'm hoping to go to the University of Reading to pursue a Master's in Strategic Studies. But because it's crunch time right now, I'm rather nervous about it all.

    I'm very much looking forward to it though

    In my first year I joined a bunch of clubs and promptly went to none of them xD

    My classes start tomorrow. Tuition went up a bit as did the cost of books so it wasn't exactly the cheapest of semesters.

    Four classes on MWF from 10-2 with a Lab in Biology on Thursdays from 1-3:50. Fun.
    I have a signature now. Am I cool yet?

    I'm attending a community college at the moment but will probably transfer to a university next semester. I tire of the constant run around and bull that I am forced to deal with on an almost weekly basis just to have my money all but stolen from me by con artists. Classes start on the 24th (I think) and it'll be my first year (took summer courses, starting late due to military). I expect to send somewhere in the couple hundreds of dollars on books that I probably won't need.

    Also he's a lawyer.

    The Space Pope once went to college....briefly.

    I may go back when I can afford it, right now I sleep on the floor and siphon my internet from neighbors so I'm pretty far off.

    Just because I run an intergalactic church doesn't mean I'm rich

    Those lawsuits cost alot of money ;D

    Strategic Studies? Do you get to play Tactics for homework?

    School starts on the 24th.

    What year?
    I will be a senior.

    Are you looking forward to going back?
    Yes. I'm tired of the summer.

    How much do you spend on books?
    I spent $500 on books this semester.

    How active are you within the school community?
    Not very. I played College Bowl for two years, but they ended that nationally so I lost my only extracurricular activity.

    What do you think Zack Morris is up to these days?
    I saw the SBTB gang on some magazine at the grocery store.

    Going to University of Reading in a month. I'm very excited, but they're being pains in the ass about my housing!

    I went to University of Rhode Island for my freshman year. I don't recommend it, unless you like boredom, farms, and isolation or unless you join a sorority.

    I'm living off unemployment. I can do anything at any time I want.

    As long as it doesn't cost very much money. ;_____________;

    Jeremy and last semester taught me that, unless one has a math, art history, or literature class at my school, one doesn't need to buy textbooks. Textbooks are ridiculous!

    Edit: I have a lowly Spanish class this semester, I think, so I probably will buy the textbook for it.

    Oh yeah, I totally didn't buy any textbooks my whole last year of college. Didn't even notice they were gone.

    It's back to reality tomorrow, sadly.
    I haven't even looked up what textbooks I need... I usually leave that until the end of the first week in case I end up dropping a class or in case the instructor suddenly decides we don't really need to use the textbook. Also, if procrastination was a drug, I'd be an addict.

    But I'm already down $200 just for a parking permit. Because downtown campuses suck and stuff...

    Oh and I'll be a junior this year. Not active in the school community. No idea who Zack Morris is.

    I'm not going to buy a parking permit. I can catch the bus from my apartment which is there every fifteen minutes.
