Cassie was shuffling stuff nosily on her desk. I woke up after my first night in the dorm and I quite frankly was not ready to get up. I was tired, but she was too busy moving around to notice she was waking me up.
“What are you doing?” I asked. I had to pee badly and when I noticed the diaper I was wearing, I let go and wet.
“I’m trying to figure out what to wear for our trip to the book store.” She put on a pair of white pants and looked behind her to see if her diaper was visible.
“Don’t wear those,” I said. “I can read the wetness indicators through those pants.”
Her face turned red and she hung the pants back in the closet. “Crap. I guess I shouldn’t even have these pants.” She grabbed a jeans skirt and pulled it on. She looked backward at herself and then bent over. “Can you tell?”
“You aren’t going to be bending over in public. You wouldn’t do that if you weren’t wearing diapers.” I got up and put on my bathrobe. “I’m going to shower.” I started for the door.
“Hurry up,” she said. “We got to get our textbooks.”
I showered and then came back in the dorm room wearing only my diaper. I grabbed a bra and some soccer shorts and a t-shirt that had hearts on it. I pulled on some sneakers and sat on the bed to tie them. I then pulled my hair back in a messy ponytail and then grabbed my big purse. “I’m ready.”
“Good,” she said. “We have $1000 each to buy our books. After that we got to go to the student computer store and pick up our new laptops. I am so excited.”
We walked to the bookstore. It was quite a walk across campus, but it was a nice day. Cassie kept pulling down the back of her skirt and it was starting to bug me.
“Stop touching your butt. Your skirt is long enough.”
She took her hand away and we continued walking. We entered the bookstore and went into the engineering section. There were hardly any used books at all. When we had all the books we added the price up and it was well over $1200.
“I can’t afford these,” she said. “I thought our book money would be enough.”
I sigh. “Who would have thought that a Chemistry book would be $329?” I asked.
“No one,” she said. “That is ridiculous. Put the books back.”
I hesitated and put the chemistry book away.
“No put them all away. We can get them cheaper online.”
I sighed, but I complied with her.
“We still can pick up our computers. We will need them to get our books online.”
We walked over to the campus computer store. This semester, the computer was required for classes, so our financial aid covered the cost for freshmen. Since our financial aid was the scholarship, that meant the computers were waiting for us to pick them up. We got in line and after standing their for about an hour, we left with two brand new laptops and a huge debit on our financial aid account.
Back in the dorm we had the computers set up. Cassie went online and got the list of textbooks and we were in business. Unfortunately, going online was not a better plan. It seemed like the edition of our textbooks we needed were new editions, so there was no deals on used books. I sighed. “Maybe we can share the books,” I said. “Or there are e- versions of our textbooks that are cheaper.”
Cassie pulled up the information about the e-versions of the books. “They expire after one semester and I know we need that calculus book for Calculus I, II, and III. No. These people are thieves and I know how to deal with thieves who overcharge for textbooks.”
“You are going to get us in trouble, aren’t you?” I asked.
“No, but I know how to get some e-textbooks that never expire.” She closed her laptop and put it in her backpack. “You and I are going to Starbucks.”
“Wait, why?”
“We need to used the Internet.”
I looked at my laptop that was connected to the Internet via campus Wi-Fi. “We have Internet.”
She shrugged. “I’m not taking a chance of getting caught misusing the Internet my first day in college. We need off-campus Wi-Fi.”

We sat together at a table in the Starbucks. I sipped on my grande smoked butterscotch latte and watched as Cassie downloaded an IRC client onto her computer. She then found a warez chatroom and soon was downloading pdfs of all her textbooks. The two of us were taking the same classes, so we she copied them on a thumbdrive and gave them too me.
“Why not e-mail them?”
“Because. You can’t.”
I sighed. “So I’m going to sit around with my computer to read my textbook?” I asked.
“Well, with the money we saved on books we can get a tablet.”
I was dubious, but we went back to the MIT computer store. They had tablets there and we were able to use the funds that were earmarked for textbooks on the tablets. I had a brand new $150 tablet with icons on it for each of the textbooks. I clicked an ICON and lay in bed flipping through my English text book. History, Calculus, and Intro to Engineering were the same. We did have to go to the book store and buy the lab book for one class that had tear out pages of assignments to turn in.
“You are smart, Cassie.” I said. “I would have never thought of getting our books from a chatroom.”
“Our generation missed out on the early Internet. It’s not just Facebook and Bit Torrent.”
I grinned. “Yeah, our computers have Windows 10 and 1 Terabyte hard drives.”
She tapped a few buttons on her computer. “And it’s a waste to give Windows that much drive space. I partitioned the hard drive and now I have Windows and Linux on my new computer.”
“I don’t know Linux. I only use Windows.” I suddenly felt stupid. What if I put on diapers and then went to a school that I was unprepared to excel at?
She laughed. “You have a lot to learn about being an engineer.”
