* Bones on attendance, or lack thereof: "I went to 10 percent of my lectures last year, and 90 percent of sections. With section, you sorta have no choice."

* Bones on course selection: She sought "the least work-intensive" classes last year, regardless of her interest in the topic.

"[Literature and Arts C-14] Heroes ended up being harder than I thought. I didn't go to lecture, and I wrote my papers the mornings they were due."

* Bones on pizza and partying: "I went to `Noch's every day last year. I went out every night."

Bones on mealtime:

"I spend an hour at breakfast, an hour at lunch and two hours at dinner. That's kinda bad."

Bones on the phone: "I am in close contact with everybody on a regular basis. Everybody." Bones now holds a part-time job as a telemarketer. Really.

Bones on section reading: "I ask myself 'does it matter if I don't do this?' No. Why would you read something if you just heard it?"

Bones on cinema: "I watch Braveheart once a week and Clueless on a regular basis. I don't even like those videos but I'm too lazy to go to the video store."

Bones on fitness:

"I watch the Cindy Crawford workout video and think about doing the exercises."

But a life of leisure leaves Bones a little unfulfilled.

She has pledged to do one hour of homework every day and has selected courses differently this year, switching from government to sociology because she found the latter to be more interesting.

"This year I go to 80 percent of my lectures," Bones says.

Still, in her Science A Core course, Bones often drops by class, picks up the lecture notes, hands in her problem set and heads back to the river.

This is not to say Bones doesn't feel guilty about her habits.
