The Law of Diminishing Marginal Benefit

Just took the first Economics midterm and apparently failed it. You know on "Cash Cab" when they get one wrong and then just continue to get the following questions wrong until they're thrown out on the street? It was like that. I was doing well, I thought, until question 14 and then it all just kept going right downhill. There were 10 questions in one group all related to the same equation and I'm pretty sure I got one right, but the rest were guessed. If the answers didn't match any of the ones listed it's "None of the Above" right?

So for the last 30 minutes I've been replaying the same New Order song over and over like a sullen teenager and trying to scrape it together to study for the next two midterms.

School is a drag.

Speaking of drags, I finished "God's Chinese Son." Everyone dies. Badly. Well, except for God's Chinese son, who dies of illness and escapes the slow death by dismemberment that his generals get. Man, those crazy Taipings. I'm trying to balance out the bummer by reading the comic-novel "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" ... which is making me laugh out loud while sitting in public places. I highly recommend it.
