Responsibility Fail

So tonight I was relaxing at home before I needed to get ready to go to a concert (my roommate Laura conducts a children's string orchestra). So at about 5:30, I decided to look over what readings I have to do for Thursdays class. I need to read them tonight, since I work all day tomorrow and then have to work on a training project tomorrow evening. I have to write a paper on this reading which is due tomorrow night at 11. So essentially it is imperative that I read this tonight. So I checked my planner and sure enough, part of the reading is 5 chapters in the book... that I haven't bought yet. (I actually attempted to buy it online, and put my order in, but then they were out of stock or somthing) So I check the website for the blue raider bookstore, praying that they don't close at 5 or 5:30.... and sure enough open until 6. I rushed over there and found the very last copy they had of the book. And I got the faculty discount since technically I am staff because of my GA.

So now I get to read my new book (and other various articles)!

Pop Quiz!

I had to buy a packet of articles from the bookstore for my OD class. All it is is a bunch of copies of articles... so printed paper.

How much do you think this cost?
And here is a picture with a shot glass to reference (I figured everyone would know the relative size of a shot glass :))The person who guesses the closest without going over wins free babysitting from me when I return to where you live! Or if you don't have kids I will buy you a candy bar.
