Yeah, it did in most K–12 schools, but MTSU starts later. (And we get out sooner!)
I’m waiting for my psychology class to start. It ends at 14:05, I go to work at 15:00, and then I finally go home at 21:00. Sigh.

I remember doing that. Class off and on starting at about 08:30, finishing at around 14:30, getting to work at about 15:00, and then getting home by around 21:30. That kind of school/work schedule contributed to my getting burned out, I have no doubt of that. If I were to do it all over again, I would take out a loan large enough to cover school and living expenses for at least a couple of school years and mostly work just part-time, if at all during the school year. Anyone have access to a time machine?

I've never worked and gone to school at same time. i dont know how people do it, I was insane busy with school just alone. I worked summers so I did not have to work during school. Mind you I went to college locally so I saved tons of cash that way, and came out debt free.
Now I'm saving up for a house so I can move out, my parents are annoying sometimes so it will be nice.

Yeah, I didn't have to pay much since I went to a local state university. I've been thinking more and more seriously of going back, but I've got a few side-projects that I think are promising and may put me into a better position to not have to go back to school to do something I enjoy. I should know more certainly by the end of this year where I'm going and what I'll need to do to progress.

We’re opened extended hours right now at the bookstore so people can get their books. (I just spent over $300 on
used textbooks, by the way.) Normal hours are much easier.
Just listening to the professors describe my future assignments already makes me feel overwhelmed. I want to scream at the top of my lungs until my voice gives out, but someone would call the cops. I’m sure my attitude will get better, but my first day was not a good one.

I have about $3 000 in subsidized Stafford loans – 0% until I graduate, and then about 6.25% after. With terms that generous, I definitely plan to continue borrowing the maximum amount, but I don’t really want to
spend it; I was just hoping to make some money off it.
I want a big wad of net worth to use after graduation for moving and finding a job. (Never mind that I have no idea what I want to do or where I want to go.) My expenses are low (studio apartment, in-state tuition, no car, etc.), so maybe working part-time during the school year and full-time during the summer will be enough. I need to find the right balance of fun and work, which is admittedly hard for me to do.

I was lucky enough to have a father who paid my entire college bill. I haven't the faintest idea how he was able to do it.

I've seen it upwards of more than $900. For the "unoriginal" releases.

Nothing drives me crazier than those romance novels set in nineteenth-century England where every little action is governed by the overarching, byzantine law of a “polite society.” If you like those kind of novels, fine, but let’s stop pretending that old British literature is superior simply by virtue of being old and British.

The spam trap has been catching lot of spammers lately.
Our latest comes from IP:72.135.217.86.
I'd estimate his age at like maybe 5-7 years old.

Akira Kurosawa had an interesting take on Shakespeare. Check out Throne of Blood or Ran.
