So true, sirmyk, of course 10 $ is the cheapest tickets in my local cinema and normally paperbacks cost the equivalent of 16 $. I haven't been to the movies of my own accord in ages. My boyfriend took me to the movies this summer, but before that I think the last time I was in the movies was...

They only offer to horribly disfigured patients. There's no reason to risk all those possible consequences if it isn't *really* necessary. I really don't know what to think about it, though, it's a subject I fin it very difficult to relate to.

heh I just made another buy on eBay. Katharine Kerr's 'A time of...' series. 4 quid for all four books - including shipping from UK to Denmark, I'm happy :D

Aye sounds like you've managed to get lacerations on your eyeball - I did that once. Was forbidden to use my contacts, so wow I had some headaches during the short week it healed. Good thing that these things heal reasonably quickly. 3-7 days usually... if you don't scratch it :p

Before I started university my calculations showed that I spent about 250 £ a year on books. I don't know what it is now - probably somewhat less on leisure reading but the total will have gone up due to the study books. It differs greatly how far between my book buys are. Ordered a stack...

What's it about? Saying it's brilliant gets me curious, so now I'd want to know whether it's something I should seek out. Do elaborate...

That's just hilarious. Besides it's a mite hard to put Shakespeare under American Literature. Such a moron. Pffft here we see a story of how a woman was punished for adultery... isn't that a good thing? Then again, apparently not since hushing things up work so much better. Pah!

Unlike me who had a tendency to read my entire syllabus during the first month or two, and now in university I read most of the syllabus before the semester's even started yet.

Oh yes, and I was greatly amused :p

Oh darling, I am SO sorry, do you think you can find it in your heart to forgive me? Even though I'm a regular visitor amongst friends and family in the Netherlands? :p

You know, with such a challenge I may just try...

Hmmm let's see. In 8th grade - meaning I was 14 - we read Martin & Victoria (Danish book) It had actual sex in it, though I don't remember how graphic. Even earlier in 7th or 6th grade our teacher read Kun en Pige (Only a Girl) to us, and that had sex in it too and we were either 12 or 13...

He's self promotional? I hadn't even noticed. Dunno if that says more about sirmyk or me...

Relatively yes, it is. I know what you're talking about considering I use those expensive razor blades myself... but really. They're not *that* big a part of my monthly budget that I'd actually want to go through such bother to get them sheaper - now books on the other hand... there's something...

Oh organised shoplifting... hmmm. People organise to shoplift razorblades? Sheesh. expensive stuff I can understand, you can sell it and make money on it, but I didn't figure you could make all that much on razorblades... of all things...

Hmmm, honestly I thought candy would've been higher on the list... That's what I've stolen most of in my shoplifting 'career' :p I was a naughty child.... not quite naughty enough for the pre-teen thongs though. Yich.

Psh they just need to sell books, we all know how accurate sellers are in the appraisal of their own goods. I think I too prefer the paperbacks, though I am quite taken with the hardcovers, the colouring isn't so much that it gets obnoxious... ah well. I probably won't get around to buying...

Nope, not the Outsiders. I'm pretty sure. Sodapop, Ponyboy, and Too-Bad Matthews while having funny names aren't those MC mentioned. Could be Rumble Fish also by Susan Hinton, but I really doubt it. Can't be of any positive help...

You may want to look into Steven Erikson's books. I haven't read any myself but I know he's Canadian :p Don Bassingthwaite has written for Wizards of the Coast - The Yellow Silk is published in the Forgotten Realms setting, not advanced story-telling, and since I'm not sure which age-group a...

No one here's teaching you - if anything you taught yourself that lesson. Have fun.
