:: ATTENTION !!!::

One of my favorite SP Episodewas the one when SP Kids decided they have ADD, Attention Deficit Disorder.

After switching through
15 Windows I have opened (Including all applications and Internet Websites) on my little 15″ monitor at work, I am thinking about ADD.

I can not stay working or doing something for a long period of time. Well, not true though because I survived college where they make each class nearly 4 hours long. But…when I am at work, I can’t concentrate on one task. I prefer doing several tasks at the same time, switching back and forth. Most of the time, I’m working on several tasks, surfing net, writing/reading emails, calling my husband and eatting at the same time.

Like…now,

I was working on this one report on Excel spreadsheet for about 10 minutes and got tired of it. I minimized my spreadsheet, brought up my internet radio, browsed through songs, got tired of them, so browsed through different channels, once I settled with the radio, I brought up blogger and started typing my thing, after the first paragraph I decided to check my eBay auctions, then streamload account, then opened emails and streamed Terry Tate [Reebok Movie] from the link my co-worker forwarded to me, … shortly after I ended up at blogger again to continue the story I’m typing at the moment

Though I can’t focus, I won’t quit or give up on any tasks until it’s done. So, Eventhough my attention is disorder, I still get the job done, may take a little longer but it will be done.

My husband always yells and screams at me for overuse the computer’s memories. I like multi-tasking (or I have ADD) I do ten things at the same time, run 10 applications, open 20 webpages, downloading 10 files, etc. I crashed and destroyed most of my computers all the time. That’s one of my problems.

Well, I think this is about it. I can’t continue typing anymore ‘cuz I’m gonna go warm up my Latte and come back to finish the report I’ve been working on since morning.

Is your attention disorder? Do you have a problem focusing on doing something? Do you get bored easily? I’m not crazy and my mental health is fine but maybe I should learn to focus on thing a little bit more.
