My grandparents have fronted almost a thousand bucks for this, so slacking off just isn't an option.
So how the **** am I supposed to go against my most deeply ingrained urges to laziness and procrastination, especially when I have to do it ON THE INTERNET?

This is most likely the stupidest suggestion I ever made, but given your slant on things, you never know, it might work.
Think of yourself as a superhero -- Deadpool, Batman, whoever: make up a new persona maybe --- then see it as your mission to take all classes and to reach a certain pass mark. **** it, dress as a superhero if you have to, to reinforce the idea. See boredom, distraction etc as villians you must defeat, and every time you slack off they win another victory.
It's just so ****ing crazy it might work!
Or imagine your metal heroes watching you, and sighing in disappointment every time you fail to attend...
