The Steven or Opportunity Cost

This is two days worth of material, and I will somehow try to catch your attention to keep you reading.

I'll start with Friday, at 1:30am EST when I did "The Steven"
50 push ups - 30 sit ups - 25 burpees - 50 jumping jacks - 40 mountain climbers - 30 dips - 120s plank - 120s superman - 50 slider push ups - 24 lunges
I did it in 17:43.97

NEVER underestimate the effects of caffeine. Even in small doses. I had a small amount before bedtime on Thursday night, and tossed and turned until 1:30 when I was so frustrated that I did the workout that I was supposed to do at 6am. I wanted to do double that, "The Steven 2.0", replacing all push ups with body weight rows, but that wasn't happening at 1:30am when I was fatigued.
I left PA with a lack of sleep.

I had the opportunity to swap flights back to Fairbanks so that I didn't have to get in at 12:20am. I was actually in bed at 10pm Friday night. I was so happy. Especially when I didn't wake up until 7am.

BUT WAIT!!! The flight was incredible because I got to sit next to a real estate/insurance tycoon who had made quite a bit of money. We talked about everything. I got to pick his brain. It was very inspiring/provoking. He told me to look at my opportunity costs for grad school. Assuming my job prospects pay me no less than $60k a year starting in May and grad school costs $40k a year and takes 2 years to complete, it would cost me roughly $215k to go to grad school. (Don't forget 6% interest)
Numbers mean a lot to me. Do my dreams of Nuclear Engineering pencil out?
He also said something that I've read in the Rich Dad Poor Dad books - he's not in the insurance business even though he owns a State Farm franchise. He's in the investment business. Something that I had slightly forgotten, but really shouldn't. His profits from his day job go into some investment portfolio. Real estate in this case.

And at the end of all of that, today, this morning, I was amazed at myself.
I benched 190lbs, dead lifted 335lbs, and shoulder pressed 135lbs.
Amazing: the most I've historically benched is 195lbs last spring. I've lost 20+ pounds and can bench almost as much. (How does that work?)
Yes, 335lbs. I tried for 345, but couldn't lift it. I should've tried 340 to double my body weight.
