You will study and you will like it. Actually I don't even care if you like it, you will do it anyway. And if you don't get As on your test then it's going to be a 16 hour Tom Cruise marathon for you, you litter slacker. People don't want slackers sticking them with drug filled needles. They want workaholics. You will stress and learn to live with it.<BR/><BR/>I love you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114671.post-1129309891534879392005-10-14T10:11:00.000-07:002005-10-14T10:11:00.000-07:00I would advise you to just slack off and see what ...I would advise you to just slack off and see what happens. Often times you don't have to be perfect to get the grades you want, just better than your classmates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114671.post-1129276415723463732005-10-14T00:53:00.000-07:002005-10-14T00:53:00.000-07:00That's a pretty big accomplishment that you should...That's a pretty big accomplishment that you should be proud of (the all A's). <BR/><BR/>I think it's just a balancing act of being prepared vs. stressing yourself out. There's probably a point at which you've put in so much time studying that you are getting diminishing returns - ie: if you're really wearing yourself out, those hours you spend after that point probably aren't very effective ones anyway, so better to spend them resting so you can study better the next day.<BR/><BR/>My advice would be to evaluate what amount of effort it will really take you to still make A's (or even B's), and if it's less than what you're putting in, then give yourself a bit of a break so you don't burn yourself out, but if you don't feel like that's happening then I guess keep going for the perfection!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
