I have this problem.

Not my usual problems. Ya know, the ones i complain about on here. I have this problem, that when you think about it has been in my life since i was a little kid. I don't know the name for it, except it feeds in my ADD. The ADD that i technically don't have, but i'm sure if i was ever tested for it they'd be like "hey olivia, here are some meds, you're ADD."

What i'm talking about is the fact that i get extremely bored very quickly. Unnaturally fast actually. With everything, even things that are normally fun. Movies are hard for me to watch, i pause them countless times and constantly leave just to take a break and do something else. My attention is all over in the place in school, there is always something better to do and there has been since kindergarten. Seriously all my report cards say i need to pay more attention and not rush through to do other things. But come on, listening to teachers talk doesnt keep my attention. My mom (and Linda and well many others) think it's because i'm not being challenged enough, and that if i had hard interesting classes i'd pay more attention. Anyways, you could give me any activity, and within 30 minutes (if that) i need to move on. I get anxious if i don't. I get fidgety and stop listening completely. It's just so incredibly irritating. I can't do anything with my full attention. When i play piano, i'm always thinking to myself a little. When i listen to lectures i draw or write to do lists. I still listen and focus, but it's like when my attentions divided i can do it better. I catch more when i'm not focusing 100%. Back to the point, i get bored super easily, and nothing entertains me for that long. I sit at home and get bored, do homework, and every other thing imaginable. I still end up bored. Maybe i'm just too hard to please. Apparently over the years i've become very high maintenance, picky, sassy, and i guess you could add too hard to please. Who knows.

So yes, that's my story for today. That's my problem.
