focus
I swear I have ADD or something. I’m having trouble focusing on things and getting motivated to get things done. I have a final exam tomorrow evening AND 2 10-12 page papers due tomorrow and I have started on none of them. I just want this semester to be over and done with.
I love school. It’s one of the most gratifying things that I do in my life. I can imagine take some kind of class for the rest of my life, whether it’s ceramics or literature. I need that outside stimulus.
This semester, however, I’ve found most of my classes to be so dull. It could just be me, though. Maybe I’m the one that is dull.
Hmmm.
I’d rather blame it on others.
I spent almost the entirety of my schooling, high school and college, b.s.ing through my papers. I know a little about a lot, of that makes any sense, and have always had the ability to pull-off any subject on the bare minimum of information. I find that having a large vocabulary and quoting obscure philosophers tends to throw them off a bit, and they assume you know what you’re talking about. =)
