Laziness Pays

I have a friend who is becoming very frustrated by my minimal effort. He comes to class appearing tired and over-worked while I have the healthy and luminous glow of the well-rested and stress-free. There is a very good reason for this and it is called laziness. While others are studying, I'm watching TV or getting a manicure or going to New York or spending some quality time with my roomie, Sparkles. I just don't stress over school the way others do and I never have. I do just fine despite this and that seems to make others angry. I get it, I'm sorry, but what can I do? Certainly not study, that would be silly.

So the other day when he was complaining yet again about my nonchalant attitude after again asking me what I did last night and again hearing me reply, "watched tv," I made the mistake of saying "and I'll probably still get a higher GPA than you this semester." To which he responded, "care to make it interesting?" Oooh, yes. I like interesting. And I like winning.
