Somebody please help me! My family is a HUGE distraction and they're really starting to get to me. Is there any way I can just tune them out? Maybe some way to strengthen will power or something? Any advice? I feel like I'm starting to lose it here because I want to work and I can't because they get in the way. It drives me crazy. PLEASE ( Read more... )

maybe you could go to a library to get some work done?

I appreciate the suggestion, but unfortunately I can't always go to the library to work. The library isn't always open either. And home is most conveinent because I have everything I need here with unlimited access to the internet, whereas at the library I have to wait for a long time just to have one half-hour time slot that doesn't let me accomplish much. Do you have any suggestions as to how to deal with my family?

if you have a laptop you can move it into a room far away from them. or just study in the basement away from the noise and stuff. or tell them that they keep getting in your way and if they do, you won't be able to study and you'll get bad grades and you'll get into a bad college and have a miserable life and it'll be all their fault.

tell ur family that u really need to concentrate and focus bc this is ur last yr of hs! Like celestial pink said which is a version of what I would/might say. So either work when parents are cleaning or sister is sleeping, go to the library or create a sign that say "The Geek is working on hw; DO NOT DISTURB!!"
maybe that will say something

Again, the whole "I'm doing homework, which is for school, which is for college, which is for job, which is for future" thing seems to work pretty well. And if you're just being overloaded with things that are all menial and small and that you yourself do not specificaly have to do, you can always just have a "break down". That normaly cools things off for a couple of days at the very least. ^_^ Take care.
