I hate that I have a zit the size of Texas under my nose.
I hate that it hurts and it's making my lip swell funny.

try not to buy your books from the campus bookstore.Lil'mermaid said:
if you can, go into the bookstore and check out all of the books you'll need, write down the ISBN number on the back (it's near the barcode usually) and try to find them online. school is still a few weeks out right?
try half.com
you might not find everything you need but if you can get a discount on 1 or 2 books it will make the total bill at the bookstore seem much better.
(and then you can buy another pair of shoes!! :sohappy: )

Books are much easier to get from the campus bookstores (and surrounding ones) because of convenience, they'll have the exact book you need, and they are much easier/quicker to return. At the end of the semester, LSU buys them back. Admittedly, they screw you by only giving you a fraction of what you paid, but they do give you something. The sad thing is that most of the books never get used. Teachers RARELY use the textbooks. I may wait this year to get my books as I need them...
Go to class and take tons of notes, that is really the textbook...

I always get all of the textbooks I can online. Then at the end of the semester I return them at the bookstore. I usually get more money back from the bookstore than I paid for them online. It makes me feel better about the $200 I dish out for my French textbooks, which I hate having to pay that much.

My advice on buying textbooks: I also always write down the ISBN numbers and then buy them on half.com. If I need them within the first few days, I then go to the bookstore across the street where they even sell the new books cheap. In a worst-case scenario, then I will use the campus bookstore
But I try to avoid them as much as possible. And sell your books on half.com too. You'll get much more money back that way. The bookstores will give you barely anything, unless by some chance they are using the book the next semester AND it's the same edition
My 2 cents :lookaroun
