12 books for 5 classes
January 21, 2009
Hey honeys, so something that I realized this past week is how freaking expensive college textbooks are. I need 12 books for 5 classes, and if I don’t hurry up and snag the cheap books from amazon or half.com, then I could have to pay up to $460. Ridiculous.
On the upside, when I told JD about my book situation he took my list and began searching for “digital copies.” And this, ladies and gents, is why it’s good to be alive in 2009. Computer versions of textbooks that can generally be found for free. I think the only thing I’ll have to get used to is reading on my computer, but it’s doable. And I think JD is just the greatest for going through all that trouble for me…awww.
In conclusion, my congrats go out to Prez Obama, with a plea. I think college should be affordable for anyone who wants to attend; and that there needs to be a better book exchange out there! I mean, reselling my books last semester added up to $20 at most. That’s pathetic! Most of those books were used to begin with, and now, I need even more books. So please, Mr. Obama, if you want to see this girl in school for four years, send me a check.
Love, Katche.
