Hi Everyone,

Well you can get a used TV for like $60 I think or a new one for like $120 as fasr as a desk goes the selection isn't that great there are some for sale right now (used) but I think that might be your best bet. I think if you want a new one your looking like $130 from cost u less and thats only one style. The other thing you can do is buy a table and use that. Good luck!!!

newlywed is right about the tvs.....can get brand new for 100-150
as for the desk, at cost u less you can get a large folding plastic table for around 50 bucks....its what i used and i liked it a lot

There's some first semester in the dorms with a big 'ole flat screen TV. Kinda foolish that he leaves his blinds open so everyone can see his neat stuff.

Just want to make sure we will have both Saturday and Sunday off. I have attended school in foreign countries before where only one of those days is considered weekend. Also, I want to verify what time zone St. Maarten is in. I have seen both Eastern Time and 1 hour ahead of that online, and am not sure which it is. Thanks.

It's basically Eastern time, 'cept you don't adjust your watch when daylight saving comes around, so one hour ahead depending.
You technically get Saturdays and Sundays off, but you'll be studying those days so they're not really days off, but sleep in late days. Yeah, I went to foreign schools too, only I had thursday/fridays off and school on saturday and sunday.

Well you are from CT. j/k. You probably wouldn't like this but I thought it was pretty damn funny. Conservative Republican Here
The following has been attributed to State Representative ******** Aye from GA. This guy should run for President one day..
"We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help
everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots,
keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings
of debt free liberty to ourselves and our
great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and
establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt
ridden, delusional, and other liberal bed-wetters. We hold these truths
to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill
of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights."
ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or
any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire
them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.
ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This
country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not
just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different
opinion, etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will
be.
ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you
stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful, do not expect
the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently
wealthy.
ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing.
Americans are the most charitable people to be found and will gladly help
anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing
generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve
nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional
couch potatoes.
ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would
be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested
in public health care.
ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other
people.
If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be
surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.
ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others.
If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of other
citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you
away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen
color TV or a life of leisure.
ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us sure
want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but
we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and
vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.
ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an
American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness which, by the
way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of
idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of
Rights.
ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where
you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever
you came from!
(lastly....)
ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's
history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true
God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any
faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution. The phrase IN GOD
WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history and if you are uncomfortable
with it, TOUGH!!!!
If you agree, share this with a friend. No, you don't have to, and
nothing tragic will befall you if you don't. I just think it's about time
common sense is allowed to flourish.
Sensible people of the United States speak out because if you don't,
insensible people will.
