“Come, my friends, / 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world. / Push off, and sitting well in order smite/ The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds / To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths / Of all the western stars, until I die.” Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) "Ulysses"

Marshmallow Consumption: Symbolism of Time Sucks
We have numerous marshmallows in our lives: sweet, tasty marshmallows. Some of these might be family, work, relationships, school—the important marshmallows.
Others might be marshmallows like Facebook, PS3, XBox, Wii, 3DS, iPad, going clubbing, skateboarding, hanging out, drinking coffee, watching Family Guy re-runs... These marshmallows are equally tempting.
Choose wisely! Delayed gratification is an important indicator of future success! Do you really need to go clubbing tonight? Do you really need to buy that new article of clothing? Or do you want to?
