Prague is absolutely beatiful. My fav graphscene too. Also a good idea yeah.

You can probably rent a whole philharmonic orchestra there for a bottle of wine.

Are these quantifiable in terms of hours spent per week, at the moment?

How many do you smoke a day vs how many you'd like to cut down to?

What area/price range are you looking at?

Not really, I kinda just have a habit of studying just enough to get easy B's, when if I put in a tad more effort I could swing A's pretty easily. Can't really say what hours are like yet as thats kind of contingent on if I have a job and what it is. But probably gonna cut down on the week-day partying as that would probably go a long ways.
How many do you smoke a day vs how many you'd like to cut down to?
Typically only like 5 at the absolute most, but when I go out I'm prone to getting carried away. Would like to sit at around 2 a (sober) day at the most but we'll see.
What area/price range are you looking at?
Omaha. Price is really contingent on whether I find a roommate or not. Problem is all my best friends at uni either live far enough away that they want to go back to their home state for the summer or they're actually from omaha so it makes no sense for the to start renting already. I just don't want to have to go live in my tiny town of 1000 with my parents for an entire summer.

If you're happy with the Bs and they're working for you, then why change?

Have you looked on somewhere like airbnb.com or another spare room listing site to get an idea of what is available in your price range?

I've been given up 3yrs, 7months and 29 days, and there's not a day goes past I don't think about having a cigarette at least once.

I can answer this because I'm in the same boat. It's the feeling that you know you can do better and it wouldn't take a lot to do it but you just dont

Why not? Is it a lack of motivation or no tangible benefits from actually doing better?

For me personally it's the "good enough" mentality that needs to change

But if it's working for you and you're not going to get anything extra out of working harder, why do it? Surely the time & effort you would have spent getting the extra grades up (for no discernible reward) would be better spent you would get something out of?
