Cog Sci discussion was canceled today. = (

So I went to Borders instead. = )

I ♥ Seed Magazine. I have also achieved buying the Second Doctor serials "The Mind Robber" and "The Invasion", and a book on linguistics called "Word Play: What Happens When People Talk". I did have a book on Internet communication, but I already knew 90 percent of the material, and the ten percent I didn't wasn't interesting enough to payout the $30 asking price. And the IPA Handbook, but I'm waiting to see what I need for my phonetics class first.

Which I just did. Holy Mother of God! My linguistics books alone cost nearly $100! On Amazon! I don't know how much my other books are going to cost, because I forgot which section I'm in for the history of theatre, and my reader isn't priced but it's going to be around $30. *sulks*

I just bought the majority of my books. I still have my Informatics books, but I'm going to go to the bookstore to reserve them there, as it's just the reader and whatever the Information Infostructure professor assigns. But this time it's an actual professor, and he's taught before and everything so I hope it's not going to be a pile of suck.

Anyway, $180 for linguistics and history of theatre. Which isn't bad, considering it's 12 books! 11 of them are plays for history of theatre, and I already have Poetics by Aristotle as I wanted to see what [livejournal.com profile] savemoony was raving about ( in a good way ) and Macbeth because I have a collection of Shakespeare's tragedies. Judging from the book list, the "history of theatre" is going to be a "history of western theatre" 'cause out of the books, five are Greek, and two of both French and English, with the rest of the world represented by one book from Japan.

But, it is about No theatre. = )
