Yesterday's gone, tomorrow may never come, so live for today...

I think of this quote every time I stay out too late when I still have homework to finish like a moron, like as if my brain is trying to make some excuse for me being dumb it pops that one in. I don't know who said it, maegan (i think that's her weird spelling of that name, idk) wrote it on our message board in the dorms one day and Andrea and I liked it so much we never took it off. I like it almost as much as Empire Records quotes, which is quite a lot ;P.

Speaking of Andrea, she is the awesomest. She totally sent me a picture of a prairie dog butt sticking out of mound today. So amazing it was. I should have saved it and made it my new background on my phone. Shit. I usually remember to do that with the totally amazing photos she sends me.

Oh well, I'll stop procrastinating further now and GET TO WORK!!!!

Really, you probably should follow the advice I give you, /but/ you should definitely /not/ do as I do ;P. Like getting home past midnight when you still have to finish a law paper. Mmm, yeah...

That whole bit about life... Yeah.... :P

Yeah, so, here's the current assessment of how things compute in life with my MBA:

Sex: - for distraction
++ for stress relief and exercise
Drugs: Pot: - makes stupider in large quantities
+ for stress relief in small doses
Alcohol: - makes stupider and can cause accidents, etc.
+ for stress relief
Rock & Roll: - for distraction
- for money consuming
- for time consuming
+ for awesomeness and fun
Friends/Social Life: I haven't had much time for this after this first couple weeks so I really can't say! When I have a spot of free time my friends don't, and when I do they don't! So it's pretty much gone down the tubes.

So what can we take away from this brief analysis?

1) While sex may be a distraction for your work and studies, it is an excellent stress relief which is beneficial to your overall well-being which will help you stay in tip-top shape for school. Allow sex, just make sure you don't overdo it and save some time for studies and hw.

2) Pot and Alcohol are equally good as stress relievers, and if this is your chosen method of stress relief than go for it. Just make sure you don't over do it. Whereas too much sex just steals time, too much pot and alcohol leads to stupidity and potentially severe consequences. So if you're better off to overindulge in sex than in drugs.

3) The negative influences going to concerts has on your ability to function in an MBA definitely seem to outweigh the benefits. Whereas sex and drugs give you positive stress relief and don't require you to go anywhere, it takes much more away from you to go out to a concert and only gives you a good time. While having a good time can arguably relieve stress, I believe the stress of gas, time, and money wasted will overpower the amount of stress relief you were able to obtain from attending. So my conclusion about concert-going is to keep it to a bare minimum, keep it as local as possible, and try to go for the cheapest shows possible. I went to entirely to many concerts at the beginning of this term and it had a negative impact on my grades and increased my stress level. Learn from my mistakes!

4) You will have no time for friends and a social life outside of people within your MBA program. Count your lucky stars if you get to sneak it in every now and then. I'm sure people who live closer to their friends will have more luck than me though ;)P.

And that is all the accounting test-studying avoiding I can do for this evening.

GUTEN NACHT!!!!

Merh-ness

Merh.

Having trouble coming up with a good color scheme for this shazeizaness!

Maybe I'll end up having to whip out some HTMLness in the long run, but just no time right now.

As you've probably guessed, I should be studying right now. Another hard accounting test is coming up on Tuesday. I hope I survive! Of course it would probably help if I studied more.

I want some pot. And beer. And anything to help me avoid homework. Which I shouldn't be doing. BAD! Don't listen to me!!!

Oh well, term is up in only three weeks!!! Then when my grades come in we can really see how well I managed to balance sex, drugs, rock & roll and this thing I like to call my MBA...

Handcuffs & Corsettes

Definitely a good combination.

I should spend more time doing homework, I really should. Less time on sex. Less time on drinking. Less time on smoking pot. But really, where's the fun in that?

I really want some Mexican food right now. But when do I not? Like pizza, it always sounds good... Baja Fresh sounds awesome.... *drool*

So I did way worse on my Accounting test than I thought! Only 5 points higher than the crappy Stats test! WTF man?! So the lesson here is, what? I can never be prepared for the test, it will most definitely suck? IDK, I'll just have to restructure how I study. Luckily, I'm going over to a groupmate's tomorrow to study and will probably actually do the problems at the end of the chapters this time. Doing the homework part, that will probably help improve my grade is my guess.

I think I'm going to go binge and purge right now in thought of all that I have due next week. I say binge and purge because I've got myself all hungry but at the same time I want to throw up at the thought of all that work.

I just gotta keep on keepin' I s'pose...

Sex or Weightlifting?

Is there really much of a difference?

G-d I hurt. Sex all night is amazing, and completely the best destresser from a long week of grad school ever. Especially really really good sex. So if you're going to mix an MBA and sex, make sure it's great sex. It would be part of the whole cost-benefit analysis approach, if the sex is awesome the benefit totally outweighs the cost but in the case of bad sex it's just not worth the loss of study/homework time.

I've found that every second doing something other than class or homework is a second you probably should have been studying. That's just the way it is here in MBA land. Of course how many of us can really handle that in all reality? Not me, that's for sure. So I let some of the reading pass by and I don't try as hard as I probably could if I was determined to get solid straight A's. Problem is that so much of the grading is subjective it feels nearly impossible to get everything right no matter how hard you tried. So I say, fuck it, oh well, my time management involves allowances for sex, pot smoking, drinking and concerts, and that's that.

So what is my wisdom here? If you like pot, smoke some, but don't get stupid. If you like sex, hold out for good sex. But can pot and sex mix with the lifestyle of an MBA? So far the answer is yes, yes it can, as long as you don't mind getting below a perfect 100 on some things.

So on an update note, the accounting test didn't seem too hard, I feel like I overstudied for it and understudied for the statistics one :P. But I thought surely the stats test would be more math and the accounting test would be more BS but oh how wrong I was. It was the total opposite.

POTTY MOUTH

Yeah, I talk dirty and cuss too much. Someone should really clean my mouth out with soap or something. It comes with the school stress, the more stressed I get, the more I cuss.

BUT, I'm actually referring to the fact that I'd really like to be smoking some pot right now. That would be sweet...

Amendment to Banana-headness

OK, so I'm getting used to the uber blonde. It's not so bad after all I s'pose. I just have to know how to work with it and I'll be FINE!

P.S. I don't care WHAT this spell checker says, I'm gonna spell BLONDE with an E damnit!
