Yeah, it's 2011, it's the future? Where's our bitchin' awesome technology?

In Germany, we could borrow textbooks from the library. Or was that only because there were few enough English editions to go around?

I just had dinner, right after waking up from a 1 hour nap ... this is bizarre, I used to never take naps, and since I came to Puerto Rico, I've been taking one almost every day

Pretty sure I managed to find the last new (read: not used) copy of Forza Motorsport 3 in Montreal today.

Abebooks.com is where I get all my textbooks now. It is awesome, and you can get a lot for a little.

Apparently I don't have to buy books again this term.

I am kinda skeptical because there is a full course that requires books, and in another class held by the same teacher I have to buy one of the three books shown, while in the class I'm taking it appears to all be optional.

Also I know my Illustration and Layout teacher so there's likely books for that class too, but at least they're optional if I need more information, a reference book, etc., etc.

I'm not sure, I only have to buy books for four of my classes, this semester. I hope they are not horribly expensive as my funds are ridiculously low.

Optional books usually means that there's a copy or two in the library, right? You could always check it out there, I'm guessing.

I wasn't able to sell many of my older books because of new editions and what-not... I was considering trying to sell them online or something, but I have no experience doing that.

Well, I think only two of my books have a newer edition out already, so maybe I'll be lucky. One of those books is a French grammar book that I think I'd rather not sell. Despite the fact that I've learned a lot on just my first semester, I hate higher education already, it seems like it only exists to take away as much money from us as they can...

Maybe it's the same person who keeps b0rking my tweet count on Twitter

Sometimes it occasionally jumps to about double what it should be for some reason, then jumps back later.

That happened to my tweet count, too, a while ago and it has not gone back to normal. But I had very few tweets so it doesn't really make much of a noticeable difference.

I should probably eat too. I tend to get depressive and/or cranky when I haven't eaten in a while.
