Go Go Concentration (Or Not)

Studying for my finals is hard. Not just because I have so much to learn, but because I really can't focus when it's neccessary. This is an example of my inner monologue when I open my chemistry book.

'Hmm. Well, I'm going to study for one hour and then it's time for a break. I'm going to do this. Concentrate! Focus! You can do it girl!'

*turns on iPod*

'This song sucks. Wait, I have to create a learning playlist first! Let's see...'

'And I need a drink too, before I begin. I wonder if there's some coke left.'

'And a sandwhich'

'Or maybe two. With cheese, or ham..'

'Gosh, where have I left my pencils and calculator? I need them right now.'

'I think it's better to listen to the radio right now. No iPod.'

'Crap, I need a computer for that!'

*closes book*

'I think I'm going to download that song right now, i'm already using the computer now...'

'Sweet! Got my salary! Maybe I... Okay, just going to search for a new pair of shoes and then back to sience.'

'And it isn't a crime to check my mail and twitter too... Just five more minutes.'

*two hours later*

'Oh crap.'

'Well. Let's eat lucnh first. Then I'm going to study. For real.'



I'm easily distracted. Concentration isn't my cup of tea, I'm afraid. I can be very focused though - but only on stuff that I like to be focused on. Like watching tv or reading a fashion magazine...

I'm glad that I'm nearly finished with my finals. Thank God. Just two more...
