All reading, no TV

After an unsuccessfully attempt at the library yesterday, Shahzia and I went to Blackwell's to cave in and buy textbooks for our class. It was suggested that we don't buy books, which means given the ridiculous amount of reading, that I would literally have to live in the law library (not much of a change from BU, I know). But now at least we have 3 of the 7 books we need for this one class, so I can spend some time reading elsewhere.

In a possible omen, the TV in the house doesn't work. I gave it another valiant effort yesterday, but it's still out of commission. I've never heard of the brand "Beko" - I think it might come from Latvia or something, but it looks like we won't be able to watch Big Brother. The British are obsessed with that show - right now it has a member of parliament and Dennis Rodman. I think I'll just have to settle for living in a Real World house.
