I spent about $500 this past semester of my own money for my classes. And that's only because I had about $400 covered by the school on top of that. Shit is expensive man. Luckily I worked at a fairly wealthy school so I didn't feel too bad if kids had to spend a bit of money on things for projects (poster board etc)
And damn at only making $35k.
