Looked online, this "affidavit" thing seems to suit my purpose. I'll get to it then.

I quit dota.
For now, at least, maybe until spring break, maybe. There is just so much other shits to worry about and I simply spent more time playing than studying these days.
Unacceptable.

Yesterday I had nothing to do after 4pm, after I finished my English lecture. However, I insisted playing dota and wasted the entire after noon, and evening, too.
I finally started my math homework around 12am, but then roomate started his game. He had a good reason to celebrate, as he just finished 4 of his midterms in 2 days.
Ultimately I kept looking at his screen and saying "Here lemme play for a bit." as he has no idea how to play leviathan, which is a fantastic hero. Angry sea monster, pissed on land, wearing a fucking sting ray for hat and smashing people w/ anchor... but I'm getting off topic.

Turned out I slept around 2am that night, and was unable to wake up for the math lecture, which is at 8am today.
I had no recollection of even turning off my alarm, did it ever go off?
When I lifted myself from the long stupor, including dreams of me pwning ppl with 4 meepos and what not, I looked around...
Bright Sunshine.
I hate myself so much at that moment.

For just a lecture, not much is missed. Just some linear transformations, maybe eigen vectors, nothing I shouldn't be able to catch up.
Math homeworks, which I labored over for 5 hours, will not be turned in since it will be late, but that's only maybe 0.5% of my grade, no worry.
But as a habit, this is much worse. I've missed many lectures from not waking up. From staying up late playing games. Not gonna happen again.

My roomate and I had this idea of going to the ground study room, but I guess that plan isn't working to well...
As we speak I am uninstalling WC3, which is good I guess.
Aye GGC TOO!

Now we got that out of the way, something to do:

Firstly I will need a new scheduel with all the office hours lined out so I can attend to those everytime and do homeworks there instead.
Secondly I will now list some of the short term plans:
Today:
-Finish a good rough draft for English essay due friday, if possible, a revision on that.
-Attend physics lecture and discussion, get done with physics homeworks there.
-Read the book assigned to me by my seminar prof.
Tomorrow:
-Finish final draft on my essay, if possible, another revision.
-Turn in physics homeworks on time, do that after turning in English essay.
Saturday:
-No excuses, go to the fucking library and make up all the maths I missed.

Some long term ambitions to look back at:
1. Attend lectures. I don't care how boring it is, how useless it is. Even the philosophy one, Aye, TOO!
2. Homework due must be mostly done the two days prior it is due. No exceptions. Wrap it up on the day before.
3. Office Hours. Go, just go. I don't care if I don't do anything but homework there but chances are I'll learn a lot.
4. Guitar. Play it. She's been inside her tomb for so long and so cold w/o me. Replace my gaming with music.

I think that will do for now, I should be getting moving on to my essay.

he's right. 20 days and it'll stick to you.

Make sure you do things as soon as you get them though.. I thought webassign was due tonight and didn't do them last night.. ended up gettint 64/100 on that one ='/

WORK WORK WORK, GET EVERYTHING OUT OF THE WAY
THEN do other stuff.

Dude! For a game like Dota? :o Rofl, seriously though, I once went through the same thing. I used to play till 3am with friends, then get up at six and travel 1 1/2 hours to campus for lectures. During my second year, I think. Good times, good times. But yes, lectures > dota. Now lectures - SC? That's a completely different question.

I need to do the same with SC. I played SC last night until 1am, went to sleep, woke up at 5, finished my essay that was due at 9 at 10, and got 10% deducted. I just started playing again during president's day weekend, and now I can't stop. =(

You should add restrictions to your surftime/freetime whatever, ie from 20:00 to 23:00 and only if the todolist for the day has been finished. No quick i'll check teamliquid outside of the time.
One trick I used at school when I really had to work, was give my WLAN-Adapter to somebody else ie parents, so I can't get it back outside of the freetime hours.
