I cannot believe this is my last blog post! Creating a blog for this class has actually been more fun and fulfilling than I had expected, it is a good way to let my creative juices flow while still grasping the concepts we are learning in class- something I wish more professors would do. Week […]

Well, as we approach the end of the term I feel as if I am running out of original distractions that I haven’t experienced or written about in weeks prior. However, there is one I haven’t touched on. This subject is FOOD! Thanksgiving is Thursday of week nine and I can’t get my mind off […]

Week eight was a hectic one. In the midst of late midterms and essays my grandma fell and fractured her spine, leaving her with only one option- emergency surgery. My grandma is one of my most beloved relatives so you can imagine the chaos and emotion this accident brought along with it. After my mandatory class […]

This week has truly made me reevaluate what is important in life. As stereotypical and cheesy as this may sound, when tragedy strikes you realize what matters in life the most and those things are not material items, they are your loved ones. Since I first heard about the attacks, I have been wanting to […]

If this class has taught me one thing, it is that I have the most bizarre ways of procrastinating. For an example, when an assignment I’m dreading lies ahead of me I somehow convince myself I need to clean every crevice of my room, kitchen, bathroom etc. in order to achieve complete focus. Is this […]

During week five, I found myself at the height of my social media addiction. For some odd reason the middle of the term always leaves me with a handful of distracting habits. Maybe this is because I am a little burnt out and trying to get my brain to wander away from it’s real responsibilities, […]

As week four finishes up I can safely say my sleeping schedule has gone completely wack…..again. I have a bad habit of letting my sleepy head tendencies take over as I head back into the school year, with my late classes (that I schedule that way on purpose) and lack of an early morning job […]

Wow, this blog is turning me into quite the complainer. Just kidding- kind of. I guess I never realized how many distractions there are in my everyday life. Little distractions that I would have never thought of before are now popping into my mind, like homesickness. This topic is bizarre to me because it is […]

This week/weekend I have been very distracted by the lovely illness that we call the flu. Hence my late blog submission, the flu has taken over my life the past four days unfortunately confining me to my bed with an endless amount of red gatorade. However, Henry (from my last blog post) has become quite […]

Since I was little, I’ve always struggled with distractions. At age 16 I was diagnosed with ADHD, however, I choose not to take focus enhancing medicine because it takes away my love of food- weird, I know. Ironically, as I sit here preparing to type about how my ill behaved kitten, Henry, distracts me from […]
