I think you can't prevent exams from interfering. So you ought to vow that you won't let university and job requirements to take up more than 75% of your lucid time. The idea is not to get to the point where all these people come back from a mindless job day to flop down in front of their TV for a program they don't even enjoy. ....................................................... But I have only read one of your posts, and have to quit now. There was something else I wanted to say though: This US trend, or is it universal? or Western? to use your intellect to cross-examine your intellect. That is the fish hook trying to fish the hook! It is very bad. No. I also think that the first vow makes more sense, though you might have to tune down a little. I think you can’t prevent exams from interfering.

I've taken a vow to never allow my participation in any Extra Curricular Activity to intefere with my exasperating attempts at tolerating college life. No more quizzes this semester. I have not attended the following quizzes: Quizzotic, Spectrum, the Hindu quiz fest, Moksha, Crucible, that Motor Sports quiz... Strange.
