01.22.13 | buy them used saves a lot of money but still end up dropping like 400$ for books. Couldn't get a scholarship to save my life. |

01.22.13 | Yeah its such a scam for the colleges, it pisses me off. Usually it runs $400-$500 a semester for me. Rented for the first time last semester and it was still over $200. |
