Hmmm I wonder... do they affect my studying? It seems that they are ALWAYS playing when i have a test/exam... I left my exam early yesterday so i could catch the game...
So much.. sooooooooooooo much. Matter of fact I left my gf's appt. to come here at mom's to write school projects, and since I'm here I only surf through HF and other habs related sites. Haven't even open MS Word yet.. and might enjoy a walk to McDonalds because obviously those jr McChikens help you studying.
LOL, this thread comes right on time! Myself, I have my best grades in University during the lock-out year. I have season tix this season and I'm forced to sell them during the last couple of games and guess what I do at home, watching the game at home instead of studying. So I start studying after the game until 4-5am the last couple of days. It's even worse in spring, when the playoffs start exactly at the same time as my final. School or hockey, I really dunno
Well considering I'm sitting here with my Psychology book on my lap and really just spending time reading HFBoards and anticipating the game, when I have two tests tomorrow... yes. Yes they do. Before the season started I was pulling in all 90s or higher so we'll see how my University marks go for now on.
After just handing in an assignment only 50% completed because of last night's game, I've decided to only listen to the game on radio tonight. I find that if I go to a coffee shop, then get the NHL.com radio feed I will actually get work done. However, it comes with the consequence of looking like a retard when Montreal scores. Leaf fans (and even neutral patrons) don't take kindly to me yelling "YEAAAHHH, YEAAHHH, HOW YOU LIKE THAT BABY!" in the coffee shop.
Well, I have a new girlfriend so she's more affecting my studying habits...I think I will have to miss quite a few Habs game for a while, but it's totaly worth it
Not back to school yet, just working....does it effect my work...luckily it's a family owned business or would have been fired since the season's start. Being on the west coast the games are so early....so I just leave work @ 3:00pm on game days
