lol I never read any books for class

With some of the paperbacks, I'd nut on a random page then close it real fast so it stuck

then I'd sell it back to Packbackers

one thing about being a math major is that you allus keep your old books

cause you might need to reference the Heine-Borrel Theorem 10 years from now

I got a whole shelf full of math books...makes me feel like a pimp loser

yeah i used to have something like... college guide to composition.

it was pretty much the tool for college that the MLA handbook was for high school. but it was about the same

i remember mine was a free edition for teachers or something, and the ncsu bookstore had cleverly used black tape to cover that around the edges, and make it appear that the book just had a thick black border around the edges.

i went to take it back and they acted like i did it so i took it off campus and got offered something less than 5 bucks. so i figured i'd keep it. and i did use it a lot for writing papers in HI, PSY, SOC, etc

i did that with most books that were worth less than 10, but i never actually used any of them again.

I kept most of my international politics books, but mainly because I was too lazy to sell them back for $5.
