My turn to vent..

I'll trade you what you paid for books for what I pay in taxes annually.....

But at least at the end of the year you can sell ur books and get some money... granted it's not gonna be alot like $80 or something but at least its some money back.
I wait until classes start to buy my books just to see which ones i need and don't need so i dont waste unnessecary money. -

Thats a really good idea, but i can still sell my books back by well into the school year for full price. -
No, just saying you shouldn't bitch about what you are spending for books...once you start a career $411.32 will seem like a drop in the bucket compared to what you shell out every week/month for taxes

Also, I am living off campus and this is indeed my freshman year...but right now with my car situation, and money situation in general (even if I had the money sittin in the bank), I cant afford the $4,000+ for the year (I think it's around there anyway)...If things pan out the way I want them to, I have 3 more years after ndsu that cost $23k alone for tuition...that's not including living costs at all. Dorms at the University I want to attent are $17k/year...I have to start saving now (minus an occassional car splurge ;)) because I want to keep my loans to a minimum. That, and I can only do homework when there's peace and quiet...I cant handle background noises when i do my hwork. As in, the absolute most I can handle is a quiet TV...that's about it.
I have heard mixed reactions from dorm life...most people that I have talked to that live in the dorms want to get out as soon as they can. Maybe I've just talked to the wrong people...idk

I agree with you... i wouldn't want to pay 17 grand a year for a tiny little room! yeah it's easier to meet people that way but you can do that in class or in groups.
Yeah i agree also. Its like, just join a group or a house. I'm going into ATO so ill meet people. Already know like 10 people in it.
