Photocopying rampage!!

Realised that we could purchase the textbooks here and return them within 14 days for a full refund... This means that i can buy the book, photocopy it and return it for a full refund!! Fyi, books here easily cost 80+ Cad and above!! That explains for the photocopying resort.. Went with Vince and Zhenni to the bookstore today and tried on UBC hoodies. In the end, still couldn't make up my mind between a 30+ Cad for a not-so-good-looking hoodie and a 50+ Cad hoodie which looks much better, sigh... After that, went to purchase the textbook for my engineering professionalism module which cost about 87 Cad!! Then after lessons, went with Zhenni to the Staples Business Depot to photocopy our textbook. Oh man, it was complete madness!! I was worried about folding the pages or damaging the bind of the book as i had to return it in a good condition which doesn't look like it has been photocopied in order to get the full refund!! Hence, i took even a long time even just to align the book carefully. But managed to pick up speed as i went along and in the end, it took me about 2 hrs to photocopy 3 copies for Zhenni, Julian and me. Imagine standing and photocopying for 2 hrs straight.. *faint*

Went for basketball in the evening with Vince and my house mate Rupert. I totally suck man! Sigh, completely disappointed with myself, should have played much better. Well, guess it is a sign to tell me to do more sports! I shall play basketball regularly!!!

Well, time to hit the books.. Haven't been studying since school started.. Got my first assignment and i shall ace it! Though i can't even do the first question.. sigh...
