I'm about to go and pick up my college books for my classes.  Its starting to really sink in.  Its not my first year, but every year of school seems to get a little more nervousness.  New people.  New teachers.

For those not in college, you really don't understand quite yet.  High school is so set for you.  College is a different story.

The parking at my school is so complicated.  White lines.  Yellow lines.  Fat guys parking golf carts on the grass.  Sammy Hagar.

Have you gotten your college books yet?  Mine cost $650.  Thats not including books that aren't required but suggested.

How are you handling this time?  Are you nervous?

'Tis my first year, but I don't feel that nervous. Only thing I'm worried about/really gonna miss is leaving my king-size bed and my mom's cooking. Otherwise I'll still call home once a week.

(You guys are lucky My books will cost at least $760, not including the courses I don't know which books to get for them yet)

I'm spending my last week, before I go back to Uni, as a JUNIOR, hanging out with friends. And, no, I'm not nervous. I'm far more excited, now. I'm finally getting into classes that will get me somewhere. The past few semesters have been about finding what I want to major in,and pretty much 'busy work' classes, but, now, I finally have a challenge.

My books cost me 525.50$. That's normal, for the first semester of my year.

I'm going to be a Senior this year. I'm way pass the nervous stage that you're at. Now, I've got the jitters about graduation, living in a new apartment and my future career. It's crazy. I haven't bought my books yet, but I should get that list out...I need them soon.

I am also at that point in college. I am more amazed that I have gone through 6 semesters already. It's almost sad that there are only 2 semesters of undergrad left.

I know, it's completely crazy...I don't know how to feel about it.

My books are pretty cheap.  For like 5 brand new books it's under $300.

I've only ordered them so far, I'm going to pick them up when I move there.
