Sooo yea I have an online class that I ofcourse have to take online.

The only major downside I found with this is it's easy to forget about because your not in class and the reinforcement for doing work is totally self sustained by individual motivation.

Sooo I decided yesterday, after a good 2 weeks of slacking off in all my classes it was time to get on the ball.

I hit the books hard yesterday etc. yadda yadda yadda cruisin through information completely focused on getting things done.

Then I find out this morning I studied the wrong chapters and have an exam due by 11:59 this morning.

Sweet.

I'd like to give a shout out to work, music, beer, girls, a lack of self discipline and ATOT.

Time to find a glitch in the Matrix and see if I can't dodge some bullets.

Procrastinators just enjoy keeping things challenging, studying is like cheating.

I'm so glad that I only took 2 of these in college. You have to be very self-motivated to do well. I will take a classroom anyday over an online class... I feel like I learn so much more.

I'm a big procrastinator myself, but I actually prefer on-line classes. It gives you more flexibility. And so long as you're mindful of due dates and such, you are free to procrastinate just as much (if not more) as you would whilst taking traditional classes.

After taking a few online classes. I got the feeling I pay them good money so they could recomend me some books to read and when to read them. In another word, a waste of good money. :)

But that could apply to traditional classes too. In the end, aren't we just paying for a piece of paper?

Is the exam online? What is stopping you from using your book for the test?

<--never did the online class thing.

It is but questions are structured around that.

So a question could be, "What causes blah blah blah?"

And in the book, there will be like one line under some covered topic that will say "Whatever also causes blah blah blah in some parts of South Africa."

And since it will be a secondary symptom of some vague health problem, if you didn't read, or have an idea of the overall information, you wouldn't know where to find that, nor would it be listed in indexes etc.

That's why you need the electronic version of the book.

Open PDF -> Search "Blah Blah Blah" -> Profit
