Slow but on the go

As expected, I was pretty tired most of the day, but I checked marked a fair bit of items on my to-do list. I filed in my taxes at my new accounts office, I met with my chemistry teacher to clarify how to do some calculations, I took a shower on campus since the hot water is down in my building, and I worked a bit on my chemistry lab report. Now, I’m going back home for an extra early bed time. I’m exhausted from yesterday’s all-nighter.

One thing I’m very happy about is that most students didn’t do the homework at all. Even if I was a little late to submit my documents, I worked my ass off. Once more, when I think I’m doing worst than everybody, I manage to actually perform well.

On the theme of cognitive performance, my chemistry teacher asked me if I considered looking into an ADD diagnosis. He was being careful, and cautious about his question, and I enthusiastically amswer yes, since last year. He also has ADD, the non-hyperactive type like me. Now I get why we are so playful when interacting, this is are commonality. And as I expected, through a “we” comment about the plants his owns at home confirmed to me he is inded in a relationship. I’m glad I’m capable of understanding why their was this natural friendliness between us; our brains think alike. It settles the matter as to why I was so joyous to interact with him on my first appointment.

Now a cup of warm herbal tea, soft music, fluffy blankets, and calm awaits. Tomorrow, I gotta increase the pace because I’m still late on my chemistry homework, and I want to listen to my online math classes sooner in the week to give me more time to do my home work. To do that, sleep is needed first.

Gratitude Journal:

I’m grateful to love learning.
