Anything will do. 6 - Drink copious amounts of tea/coffee & pee frequently. 7 - Watch a movie you've already seen. 8 - Don't get dressed - stay in your bathrobe all day.. It encourages you to do nothing. 9 - Call up all your friends. Especially the ones you haven't spoken to in *ages*. 10 - Open your books, start reading, get discouraged after 2 sentences, put the books away and cry. Once the tears start, you can't study anyway because everything looks blurry.

JohnMitchell 14 #11 May 23, 2010 Seriously, I think you need a study partner. Sure, I'd fly over and help, but I suck at accounting (I have an accountant do my taxes,) But is there anyone in the class you could get with to go over all this stuff? Study partners were a huge help in my career. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
