Too many textbooks (1 Viewer)

[toryn]

Eurgh. I just discovered today the true horror of textbooks. I've got them, had them since year 5, but they really pile them on in Year 12, eh?

My Ancient teacher gave us 4 today, there's more coming, and (my bag being small) I think I've done serious damage to both my right hand and shoulder from carrying them all the way home.

Who's got 'em, how many, what subjects, and which ones do you think you're actually going to need?

 

[Kulazzi]

yeah, some girls who are in the head teacher's class, I think already has all their related material and one of my friend also just got a pile of textbooks for ancient. Poor things.

I haven't got much text books. Just a Yr 11 3u maths, Yr 12 3&4u maths and an eco textbook. Still waiting for my phy text book and we're apparently gonna get at least one more maths later on.

i am in year 10 and i have got a maths textbook and a science textbook for school.

 

[astro]

yeah kulazzi, we received all our english textbooks for year 12 today....and then there are the history books....

 

[thorrnydevil]

Hell yes, I have got so many text books!
I have 2 for maths, my Modern DE work, Legal, Economics, English + the Tempest, my Ancient is coming next week and I have a huge book for Extension History!

 

[ChevyJoe]

You think it's bad now? Wait till uni.

Oh my god, I fucking hate people who come into forums just to say "you think X sucks now, well you haven't seen nothing yet. haw haw, I am so wise and mature". JUST STFU! I DON'T CARE WHAT IT'S LIKE IN UNI, I CARE WHAT IT'S LIKE *NOW*!

That said, I only have a Legal textbook so far, and sif English textbooks take up lots of room, you generally do one of them at a time! It's the same as bringing a book to read to school!

 

[Phanatical]

Oh, you're just pissed off that I'm better than you.

 

[glycerine]

Haha, that's exactly it. Damn, I thought I was a little less transparent than that.

Excuse me, I'm off to have sex.

Yep. I had good reason, actually - I'm creating a tuition program for Music students, and this place has the target audience.

1. Doesn't seem like you're really very friendly, therefore you may not get a niche market
2. Man, you graduated 2 years ago. Stop posting in this thread, you're really not in year 11 anymore, stop making life more difficult and scary than it already is

No, my english textbook is actually a text book. Not a novel, which I have to take aswell.

 

[SarahMary]

it will get worse though... you'll end up accumulating many many more text books than the ones you have now, trust me

Umm, then your teacher is a retard, you shouldn't be learning English out of textbooks. at best you should be using them to consolidate your knowledge at home. :s

Where not "learning English out of a text book" its more a dictionary with exercises that we do if we don't know what a meaning is.
