I am also proud of Solveig...on another note, call me this week because I have it off for break and so things need to be done...mainly you and I need to do something fun!

kalarien April 3 2005, 21:14:19 UTC

We should go have fun in the sun, I say, I say. Unfortunatly, unless you've got a magic time freezer, I've got a lot to do this week. But you could come over on Wednesday night, I think, if you wanted to do something after my band rehersal which gets out at 5:15...I'll call you!

flamingobear April 4 2005, 00:08:57 UTC

That might work! yeah, give me a call!

I'm proud of you too solveig! As a fellow ADD character, I've gotta say that the meds do good things for you, although you still forget to do things, and the butterfly thoughts, they stick around a little longer, but they still fly away. It's like the butterfly is eating, or laying eggs or maybe sleeping.

I still wanna see ice princess

Me too. Hurry up and get done with school so we can go see it. I hate waiting!

ADD sucks.

Actually, parts of it are really cool. It really helps when I'm performing, for instance, to be able to distract myself from the nervousness. If I can get to the point where whatever I'm playing is automatic I can just let my hands go and think about something else. That's the only way I ever managed playoffs in high school, by the way.

And parts of it do suck. Like the test thing. My God, I got such a headache during that thing...which didn't make concentration any easier. But still. Gotta look on the bright side with all your might, right?

Actually I have no problem doing tests. It's the day-to-day study I have the most trouble with, but you're right about the performing part.

kalarien April 4 2005, 23:20:41 UTC

I think it had to do with the style of the test. You know, most tests all the problems/questions are in front of you so if you get distracted you just have to read the problem/question again and start over. But this was an Aural Skills exam, which means that my prof would play an interval and I'd have to identify it. And then he'd play another one and I'd have to identify it again, but if I got distracted I'd get behind and wouldn't be able to catch up, so I'd get some wrong but I'd guess anyway because at least then there's a chance that I got lucky, but guessing took time and all of a sudden he was playing chords, not intervals and I'd have to do it all over again.

Day-to-day studying...yeah. I mostly just depend on my superb critical thinking skills and random knowledge to get me through. ;-)

Well, you know, if I'm diagnosed you've got a 40% chance of also having ADD...since it's adult ADD. If it were child ADD there would only be a 30% chance.

Mother envy!!! Don't I know it? She laughed at all my jokes, even my silly one about Andy having bubonic. And she really wants Eric to get a job at OH...it's so funny! He should--he'd be a good usher (as opposed to a bad usher...like Ethan! :p), and Mary would hire him in an instant. Especially if I talked to her about it before hand...But, anyway, Val is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. She started ranting at one point about how much she wanted a Prius because she can't stand buying gas because it means sending money into Bush's pocket, and she doesn't want to give him any of her money...

And I got 85% because there are brain scans out there that only diagnose to 90% accuracy, so I can't be that much sure...

The Boy™? Who is The Boy™?

My wonderful and exasperating friend Andy...I swear, no one can make me more angry just by being there. Well, no. I never get mad until I'm not around him anymore. But...some people (or at least one person) are just like that. I love him dearly, anyway.

I think it has something to do with something that I was talking to his brother about. He gets really defensive. Or just a little defensive, but he's _ALWAYS_ that way...so I'm always trying to draw him out and it backfires because he just gets more defensive when I do that, and then...gah. But that's who "THE BOY(tm)" is. Or, when I'm talking to Anna "That Boy".
