So, if your grades don't come back the way you would like, can you track that back to lack of motivation?

Or do you make a comeback before the project is actually due?

Just curious. I worked quite a bit in college,so I always had projects and studying done ahead of time, because I was usually working the night before an exam or whatever.

im really not terribly concerned about the test, i dont think it will be all that difficult.

as for other projects for the semester, im almost done with everything but the paper that i mentioned above. i got a lot of work done during spring break a few weeks ago because i knew i wouldnt have time now.

I remember an interview with him where he said he really wasn't acting that much. He embellished it slightly, but said what you saw was pretty much what he did.

R. Lee is awesome. Cool
