May I take a moment...

...to further complain about school books? Yes? Thank you, I appreciate it. Well, remember when at the beginning of this semester I showed you a picture of the many books I have to read this semester? (No? See this blog post) Well, I got the two other books I have to read that hadn't come in yet. Here they are:


"Umm...those look like pretty slim books. Why are you complaining about them again?" you ask? Well, I'll tell you. Because these two skinny books (both about 150 pages) were RIDICULOUSLY expensive. Seriously. Guess how much they were together? $30....$40...$55...? Nope. $77.20!!! For these two super slim books. It's highway robbery, seriously. And, of course, as this isn't a class that's taught every semester, the bookstore likely won't buy them (or most any of my books) back. So depressing. I guess being a language major really is as expensive as being a science major. You see, these books wouldn't be so expensive if I were in Europe. It's the import fee that raises the price so high. Seriously. Were these books THAT important to the class? Hmph. Oh well, going home tomorrow!!!
