Textbooks
So my Term 1 textbooks came today, courtesy of Faststart, at around 9:30am.
I looked at the total on the bill and it was around $935. O.M.G....why are textbooks so expensive?! I was really shocked. My textbooks last year were around $400-500. But then I noticed I already had two books and I mentioned on the order that I had them. And I already have a PRS system clicker. Also I received a package of textbooks that I don't need for the chemistry course I'm taking. So that's like $300 I get back.
I asked my friend about his textbooks. He said that he was going to get a copy from the internet. Which is a good and less costly idea but I'd rather get an authentic textbook just in case.
My photos of the Gay Pride Parade got developed and I picked them up a while back but I forgot to mention it.
Looking at these photos, I realized that I have no sense in Photography.
It was kind of funny looking back how I noticed after I used up all the film and after I got home from the Parade, that there was a flash button at the front of the instant camera. I didn't use flash at all while I was using the camera. When I was taking pictures, I thought the Instant Camera was a flash-less one. I told my mom and she said, "I've done that many times before."
My reply was a short silence before, "We are so family."
When I took the photos to get developed, I told the lady at the counter that the photos were taken without flash and she had them developed as bright as possible. So they don't look that bad. Just a bit unclear and a bit dark but not as dark as I was expecting it to be. They did a good job at correcting my error as best as possible.
Next year, I shall thrive to take better pictures and actually make sure there's a flash button and use it.
My internet got cut off yesterday. It came as a surprise. I get home from work and I go onto my computer to see that there's no internet. My dad phoned the service provider and asked what happened. They cut us off to try to get my dad's attention and to get in contact with him. They basically wanted to tell us that we were over-using, going over our 60GB bandwidth. It's only the holidays and when there's no school that we over use the computer. So yeah, I'm not allowed to download anything right now. So my YAOI scanlations will have to wait until September comes in. Which is in two days. (^-^)
I haven't yet finished a final copy of my Bring Back the P0rn entry yet. I'll do that tomorrow. I'm so excited for the event.
