How are you able to manage...??<br /><br />Your experience there can be summed up by this quote from Tom Bodett“The difference between school and life? In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test.

I'm sure you could SHOCK them with other things college kids do. ;)<br /><br />Half-surprisingly, your situation sounds a lot like mine.
