It's actually pretty easy, I'm just lazy.

You kids have it easy now...just Google it.

Back in my highschool days we had to go to the library and look that shit up in an encyclopedia.

My high school teachers made us do that. Easy as pie. Walk down the hall with a pen and paper and take notes from books. Big fucking deal.

Ok, this is novice work compared to that. I'm laying hardwood laminate floors (I have 2 rooms done, 2 to go), I have laid ceramic tiles in the bathroom twice now. The first ones were shitty 8 inch tiles, and 6 or 8 of them busted into tiny pieces before I could even get them grouted, so I changed to the 4 inch squares to better distribute weight. I have to rip up the last room of carpet (this room) and do the hardwood in here...then I get to put up my new (year old now) computer desk.

Make sure you seal that tile grout as soon as humanly possible. If you don't it gets real gross and is a pain to clean. Trust me. I am the one that had to clean the grout in our kitchen so we could seal it. Guess what, we still haven't sealed it. Going to have to clean it again. :ugh:

HAHA!
I still have to do that occasionally.
Granted, the internet makes things a hell of alot easier, but depending on the teacher and assignment, I still have to use books for most of the work.

Honestly, I think it's easier to clean without sealer. You can just put some bleach on it, and leave it for a half hour, and it's pure white again.

You get used to it after a while. Normally the smell chases everyone else out of the apartment when I use it. I get peace and quiet that way :P
