That's the point where I was irrevocably lost. Skip my classes for a possible trip in asia if we happen to do really, really well?

Made me think of the 'Screw you, pay me' guy.

That's not really a good analogy. The 'F you, pay me' guy was talking about being assertive and sticking up for yourself in the face of clients who are trying to get you to do work for free/not pay their bills etc. (that's if we're talking about the same person)

A better analogy would be that the OP is more like the client of the 'f you, pay me' guy.
