Its something pretty obvious I guess, but its a pity that you cant have a valid social life and good grades at the same time. You cant even pursue a social life without consequences grade-wise, unless you are a terrible mutant like steve xu or rishi or julian or something. (By social life, btw, I mean you have a good amount of active friends, some trustees, you are informed, and you are either (a) involved in a relationship or (b) seriously looking)

I need to learn the tactics for keeping up with grades while still being interested in girls and all. I think I worry and ponder too much of my time away on my social affairs and too little away on what the square root of 2 is.. (something like 1.417..... see, i dont eve know more than 3 digits! xP)

Whats real interesting is that my parents offer a really good car (well, my dad, the ultimate flake will make that a 'decent' car) for good grades. In other words, i'll get a car, something that will improve my social life, by not having one. Great....
