Hope everyone had fun fighting all the lineups everywhere!
was it just me or were there more ppl than last semester?

check this site out for mrc students. Its students selling their books. I got 40 - 60% cheaper than the bookstore through this site.

U might wanna check amazon too. way cheaper but takes 10days!

hope this helps.:thumbsup:

Suckers, I don't start until the 11th.

If you guys think there's hot girls now, wait another 2 weeks.

What'll happen is this.

The hot chicks at the U will realize they can't cut it, so they all jump on the Mount Royal bus.

well, i arrived late yesterday by about an hour because traffic was retarded and some lady rear ended me, only to find out that my first and last classes were canceled. So i decided to stand in line for almost 2 hours waiting to buy my parking pass. Proceeded to the bookstore, saw the line and said fuck it.

I got my ADMN1132 text new for $52 and the bookstore had it for $78. (took 10 days to deliver to my house though!)

You can find almost all new editions (obviously not if they are mrc exclusive) that ppl outside of colleges can use.

Business Law
Tax
Stock Market
Insurance
etc.

Still the best is the MRC bookstore used section:

http://www.campusbookstore.com/usedbooks/mtroyal/index.cfm?index=UBCSEARCH

students put up prices so they are all 'obo'

got my insurance and HR books for $75 combined (used) as opposed to $191 new

hope this helps...

Tuesday was my first day back in college after 7 years. It is different yet cool. And I agree with turbo'dGSR there are a TON of hotties there, even my Speculative Fiction: Fantasy class (which I figured would be a sausage fest)

Reminds me a bit of this quote from Dazed and Confused

"That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age."

Just replace high school with college and it pretty much describes my first thoughts walking down the hallways.
class schedule is all late afternoon and evenings to accomodate my work schedule.

so tuesday 3:30 to 5:30 (english 2201) and then 6:30 to 9:30 (thea1112) - this is tiring.
wed 6:00-9:00 (Engl 3369 - I think. spec fiction: fantasy)
thursday 3:30 to 5:30 (english 2201)

Only took 3 classes.

for intro to computers, find the most talkative people for your lecture part, i won't lie to you, it is a friggin boring, but me and my buddies managed to make it a somewhat enjoyable class by disrupting other people's education :D

^ I totally hear where you all are coming from. I can justify tuition but I can't stand spending $100+ on a text that I'll open a dozen times throughout the year. Then...after I'm done with it, they change the fucking edition and you can't even sell it. So frustrating...:bullshit:
