Smoking while reading a text book is usually a bad thing if it is the first reading of the text. Read your book straight the first time. THEN get stoned and read it again. The pot will let you see things from a different perspective. Take notes as you read stoned. Write your papers stoned, but clean them up straight. Use spell check! Remember, MODERATE pot use will increase your IQ, while heavy use will decrease it! (Here's the proof, a scientific study-- http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/abstract/166/7/887). Math and marijuana don't mix for me- I did all my math straight and rewarded myself afterwards. I graduated with honors--with my husband in prison, 2 adult, unemployed sons going to college and living at home, holding down a parttime job as a housekeeper to a cantankerous stroke victim, working as a tutor and lab assistant. Pot got me through it all! You can get stoned and still do a good job in school! When you do an assignment, you need to get everything together BEFORE you get started. If all else fails, make a check list and just go down the list. The list can keep you on task. ( I work in special education and we use this with some of our kids- I'm not trying to be insulting- I know you're not special ed, but if using a list works, it works! Old stoner that I am, I use lists frequently.) Pot is useful in some cases of ADD, and it sounds like you do have a touch of it. Good luck with the printer.
