yeah the grade margin (D or C) came down to the last homework assignment, which I didn't turn in because I was studying for other midterms (and playing counterstrike)

I'm glad to say that I don't play CS for more than 2 hours a week anymore :)


edit:
I emailed the TA, instructor, advisor, etc all asked them what I could do, none of them even bothered responding to me!

Atleast you guys are taking classes :). This semester I am taking ONE class and I hadn't taken any for the last two semester. I am atleast doing well in my ONE class :p. I do work 40 hours a week but my job is basically to sit on my ass from 12am to 8am and make sure the people in the study/computer lab don't walk out with a computer. I spend most of my time on the net(LIKE RIGHT NOW:D ), reading, or watching movies or TV shows. I do about the samething at home only I am on a couch.

<< My calculus (2nd year engineering, btw) midterm is tomorrow (today actually, in about 13 hours)... I haven't done any of the assignments yet (5 of them). Haven't opened the textbook, didn't visit the course website until today. I've written notes down but never reviewed them. I failed calc last year, so it's obvious that I suck at it and I'm not gonna go in there and own without studying. This weekend, played CS, watched TV, slept in until 3-4 sat. and sun. Verdict: too damn lazy to do calc. >>




Same here, I'm dropping Calc2 tomorrow because of this.


I once signed up to take a computer programming course in junior college for high school (IB) credit because the class wasn't taught there and I wanted to graduate IB with higher-level Computer Science experience/credit. I failed miserably. The Junior college class was more of a refresher class than a learn-from-scratch class and they were going FAST! I didn't try doing the C programming assignments until the day of the class and I never studied. In the end, I got an F in the class. Now get this: I was too lazy/scared to tell my advisors and teachers that I had failed the class. For nearly a year, they thought I aced it... unitl they found out. I have worse stories but if any faculty from my HS found out, they'd probably send me back for another year.....seriously. :eek:



<< <<

Other version is, "Oh screw it." Then you start to rationalize: I'm only 20 years old...many ppl are doing 5 years of college...college life is great, why leave early..etc etc





static911 >>



Heheh, that is EXACTLY what I'm thinking. Uni is fun, and I'm a year younger than most of my classmates, so I'll be on the same page as them

The only thing holding me back from just doing absolutely nothing is the fact that my parents have expectations So I'll probably end up cramming like a madman when panic sets in... but I'm still waiting on that... lol.
>>



EXACTLY!!. I've been in the screw-it phase for a little more than a month now and now I play multiplayer (worms & Subspace/Continuum) and Dance Dance Revolution (just came back from an Orlando tournament) EVERYDAY. People I know always tell me they want to graduate early and I'm like "Why the heck do you want to do that?!?!" You all know life goes downhill after college. So in my laziness, I maintain a work/fun activities ratio thats currently leaning too much to one side.

Sketchy, ygpm. I want you on my buddy list!

static, yes i do feel overwhelmed but it came from being lazy. i even told myself last week that i would get everything done on the weekend. early in the semester i was trying to pull an A in all my class but now i'm settling for a B and even a C. and what you said about rationalizing it is exactly what i'm thinking. but then again it conflicts with the fact that i do want to finish early and get a job. sometimes i just feel this heighten sense of motivation and sometimes it's just blah whatever.



danny, sh!t man. i played all weekend and i'm still at level 54. you play too much lol. i finally found something good last night. staff that gives +1 to all skill levels, +150 mana, +80 HP, +50% resistance to all and some other stuff. woohoo! i guess my weekend wasn't a total waste.
