Yeah so Virginia Tech is closed for the first day of classes due to a fugitive running around campus. Check out foxnews or cnn.com Basically my friend was in her class and cops came in with M16s and told everyone to get out. Then the SWAT came in the building looking for the guy and hes still on the loose.

Wow, that's pretty nutty. Nothing interesting has happened at UBC. Except for that rich guy who got kidnapped by some asian guys. I think he's been returned though. School doesn't start until the 5th for me. xD

Yeah, books are a ripoff and they're barely even used all year. I brought like six books to sell on Friday and they would only buy one of them for $60 and one of the physics books for $10. The rest were for physics and chem but they were using new books this year (a perfect time for that). So I just ended up donating the rest. And so, I got like $70 back for 6 textbooks. That's just excellent.

Weeeeeeeeeee, I'm in college too*!
So the worst that happened on my campus was that some guys from the theater department released rattlesnakes in a building in honor of Snakes on a Plane.
And I have a freaking 2 hour 10 minute break between classes in the morning, and then 1 hour and 40 minute break in the afternoon. Now, normally I wouldn't complain if I had a dorm, but I'm commuting from my house for the first year, so it's basically dead time. *cough* Yay, hurray!
*Calculus sucks, and it's only day four. Damn you, limits! DAMN YOU!!!

Damn you, limits! DAMN YOU!!! I had a 4 hour break in the morning on Wednesdays during first semester last year. Now, I usually tried to use that time constructively, but sometimes it would be just sitting in the library all that time and taking a nice nap, eating when I wasn't supposed to, and staring at notes blankly.

I tend to wander around campus, help my friend with her Calculus and then eat lunch. That's about it.

That's pretty much all there is to do. It's pretty boring most of the time. But well, there was this time when me and my friend would go to the arcade during breaks (and waste lots of money) to play silly games like House of the Dead and Time Crisis.

I can never shoot that little Imp guy in House of the Dead.
I don't start University till Sept. 11 but I must say my day is going to be a lot like yours TF. Except I have very long breaks between classes. Driving as well. -_-
