College

Okay this blog is not really related to my Radical Journey experience. It's about college being awesome yet expensive.

Just to deal briefly with the "awesome" part: I know I complained and griped and whined and all of that (I can think of better words but I won't say them) about college...but it is a really wonderful place! Eastern is such a blessing and a fantastic place to grow in my faith and in academics. I know I'll be challenged here, and I'm so very excited about all that this experience entails.

Now. Anyway. I just want to say that books are so expensive! And in this new crazy digital age, online passcodes so I can do my French homework on the interent are also so expensive!! I just spent $40 buying one passcode so I can have the basic online account; well, apparently I was supposed to buy another passcode as well so I can buy the workbook online and do my homework that way. Nobody told me that! and that will be another $60!!

It's ridiculous and I'm so tired of spending money on this class. Eventually I'll break down and buy it, especially since my next class is tomorrow, but man I really do not want to. I'm not made of money people, come on.
