June 2009
i finished my sister’s keeper last night. i thought i got to what was “the sad ending” and was like, oh, that’s not THAT sad. but i was wrong. when i really did get to the sad ending, i just had silent tears streaming down my face. i asked blake why someone would write something so sad, and he said he thought that was the point of the book. all in all, i’m still glad i read it.
after neglecting the internet for weeks, i’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time catching up.
all day on the couch is my plan for tomorrow as well. good thing i have a comfy couch. hahaha
i assume you laugh at the end of that statement since you are referencing my couch. i still want that cheese balls barrel out when i come home.
none of my friends were home and its still a kajillion degrees
blake admitted to me the other day that he liked texting. i told him that was good since his new phone’s giant qwerty keyboard is perfect for texting.
i want to make a fun, summer cd to play in my car as i have gotten in a bit of a musical rut. what songs would you put on it?
I can’t believe I haven’t heard of this before! Essentially, it is Netflix for textbooks. You search for the book you want to rent and then choose the length you need it for (semesters are 125 days, quarters are 85 days, and summer sessions are 60 days.) You can also get extensions for 15, 30, 85 or 125 days for an extra price. At the end of your rental period, you just send the books back. The return shipping is free. You can also buy your books from them and get a guaranteed sell back price. Right when you think this deal couldn’t get any better, they promise to plant a tree for every book you rent as well as one for every book you donate! I have checked a few of my textbook rental prices for the fall, and it looks like I can rent books for all 5 classes for less than $100, which is what just one book would cost to buy.
