NUS lecturers teach so fast!! if you even consider that teaching... *sob*
uni's been burning a hole in my pocket with the books... and no offense, but somehow, I don't think 2nd hand books are very much cheaper... I get the impression that our seniors are trying to 'cheat' us to buy the books from them at a less-than-reasonable 2nd price.

ok, look at this situation i encountered:

For the module, Programming Methodology, we need to buy a certain textbook that's actually notes written by our lecturers. There's two edition to the book, and I want the 2nd edition because it's more updated andl.... edited with errors in the 1st edition corrected.

So, I was trying to look for a 2nd hand one from the seniors... then, there was this senior I asked (whom I do not know personally)... I asked her if it's the 2nd edition and she told me she didn't know... so, okie... nvm... I asked for the appearance of the book and checked with my friend who have bought the 2nd edition new from the co-op. (all conversation took place through sms btw) and found out that hers is actually the 1st edition because the 2nd edition is out only this year. so, I smsed her to tell her that since hers is the first edition, I do not want it... then she replied: "I have gone through with my friend and found out that the one in the co-op is not much different from mine..."

...

so, she does know that it's the 1st edition she's holding?!!! Or did she think that there's 3 editions all together? I'll like to think that it's the latter. besides, she's selling me at 12 bucks, and the 1st hand one from the co-op is 15.60 dollars... so, no point compromising accuracy and buy a 2nd hand that's 3.60 cheaper.

and I realised that there's a CO-OP card!!!! gonna get my hands on it... 5% discount i think... which is... 20 dollars if I buy 400 dollars all together. better than nothing... for those who want it too... go to the CO-OP with 2 passport size photo and ask the lady at the counter for the application form.

clare: that's an evil plan of yours to get me to blog more often right?? haha... love ya~!
