Wisdom Ni Ban

I know what your first thought is, and it's not what is the wisdom you wish to impart on me? The question is what the bloody fucking hell does "Ni Ban" mean??? (unless of course you're odd like me and attempted learning Japanese ;P) It means # 2, so now that I put your mind to rest I'll move on:

If you are a habitual procrastinator like moi, or if you have a tendency to fall asleep whenever you read boring text books on things like accounting and statistics, a helpful way to stay on the ball is to stay at school to get some of your work done. You are less likely to fall prey to distractions and I find I am also less likely to fall asleep in a public place where bums might mug me or fellow classmates might feel like drawing on my face with sharpies (ok ok, this is business school, I'm not in film school any more so the latter is less likely to happen but you get my point.)

HOWEVER! IF you choose to follow this piece of wisdom, let me also let you in on this piece of advice to go along with: Do Not, I repeat: DO NOT leave your laptop open beside you with your AIM on because the temptation to go and talk endlessly to the boy who picked on you in high school like a schoolboy with a playground crush who consistently annoyed and confused you throughout those years and who recently you found on MySpace and started talking to and eventually became friends with will be TOO GREAT and you will inevitably get distracted and defeat the whole purpose of reading at school. OK, so maybe your laptop distractions won't be that specific, but still, keep the AIM O-F-F. ;P

Thankyou, and goodnight.

P.S. I know I said "bloody" earlier, forgive me, I lived a brief stint in London and am considering going back, maybe.
