Shortest Attention Span Ever

I believe that I have one of the attention spans of all time.

For this reason I easily get bored, make random noises, fidget, and yell at people for no reason.

If my mind isn't fully stimulated, I will make a noise like "Mrrrrrrrrrrrrr" for entire minutes, or until someone like Jason tells me STOP IT because it's ANNOYING. But I think it's hilarious.

I can't read books that aren't really, really interesting, have short chapters so that I feel like I've accomplished something, or have pictures for me to look at and say "OH HEY, THAT'S A NICE PICTURE," and find something hilarious about it, so I can laugh for ten minutes.


The only class I paid attention to AT ALL last semester was Creative Writing, and that's only because I know I can benefit from it immediately, and that's my major. In all my other classes, especially Humanistic Traditions II (because I don't care who painted that stupid painting! And I especially don't care where that stupid person lived!), I wanted to cry into my notebook, and then maybe kill myself. I'd draw dinosaurs, or cats, or bunnies all over my papers, trying my hardest not to yell "SHUT UP" at the professors, or that obnoxious girl who feels like she has to comment on everything ("OH HAI! Isn't this what A Tale of Two Cities is based off of? Because I read that just this semester in Literature, and it talked about the French Revolution, and YOU'RE talking about the French Revolution, and...").

Also, to entertain myself, I make ugly, weird faces at Jason. Once again, I think it's hilarious. 

 
AND IT IS. Look. That's so funny. Imagine seeing that in real life, on a real face. HA.



Having a short attention span is a real handicap. Though I mostly am able to control my impulses in public, I sometimes find myself almost yelling "I'm bored!" when I'm standing around, waiting in line, or waiting for anything in general. This makes people stare at me like I'm a weird child that just yelled something inappropriate like "I'm bored!"


I've always wondered if I had ADHD, but I never did anything about it because I'm also too lazy to go to the doctor. Plus, I didn't want to believe that I actually had a disorder. I was fine thinking that I was, instead, quirky, loud by choice, and just uninterested in most things. 
However, earlier I decided to take an online ADHD test. I got this reassuring result.
