I've just realized that I currently enjoy studying. I might also be going slightly crazy.

You wouldn't think I'd enjoy it considering I spend 3/4 of the lectures yawning, or the fact that I don't ask questions, or answer any my lecturer asks for that matter. But I assure you, I do like 'learning', which I think totally is a > word to mean 'studying'. I learn new things, I study for exams. I love learning, studying on the other hand, I do not.

Honestly, the best way to 'learn' is through just experiencing/finding the random-est things. The feeling of coming across something interesting yourself is always the best. Thouuuuugh, if anybody wants to get a whole bunch of random facts in one place, shows like University Challenge are great to watch. I went through a phase of watching so many episodes of that show, that I actually needed to just step back and tell myself to stop lol. Gillow (who apparently has a great knowledge for small animals) and basically everyone else from the Magdalen Oxford team was my fav, hehe.

ANYWAY,

I'm slightly uncomfortable with the fact that I'm not at the moment, drowning in assignments. The feeling of not have something you need to worry about, makes me worry that I'd miss some major important thing that might be due tomorrow for all I know. Doesn't life just work out that way though? You finish your homework, bring it to school the next day, all to have your friends tell you you did the completely wrong exercise and you now need to spend the last 15 minutes before class working at speeds faster than Flash to complete the actual thing that was given.

Admittedly, I don't have the greatest memory, and having studied the internal workings of memory in my Biological Psychology class makes me even more certain of that fact. They say something is only remembered if attention is paid, and there you have it. My issue right there, in its entirety.

My attention span is about as close as it can get to myself being diagnosed as ADD or a goldfish, without actually being any one of those. I'm just majorly inattentive and daydream slightly too many times a day. Fun fact, I actually listed daydreaming as 1 out of 3 main problems that disrupt my studies in this self-assesment form that our Academic Advisor (who are basically in charge of individually keeping track of our wellbeing) gave out. Just to clarify, it's not like I'm constantly distracted. Non of that HO SQUIRREL business. I can finish a task ez pz if I get into a flow. The thing is that I'm so easily distracted. Which also explains why sometimes I've got to have multiple things going on at once just to keep me going on one main thing. To keep me concentrated in writing my assignment, I had to jump between the document tab—pinterest—twitter—having something play on Youtube—document. Rinse and repeat.

Okay so boring stuff aside, I don't think anybody is able to guess what song/s I'm currently listening to.

AHA, which is also a 3 hour and 14 minute video just so y'all interested could know. I swear I put it on at 3pm today and it's 8pm right now, and it still hasn't ended. Music that defies the law of time? Count me in.

Did I ever mention I have a major thing for butter chicken now? Probably not considering I thought I straight up hated it till a few months ago. Butter, milk and chicken sounded like a combo for achey-wakeys, not eggs-and-brekky. Hatred aside, I had it at the chicken place downstairs and thought it was the most magical chicken dish since BBQ chicken. I finally understand the ginormous fanbase it has (rightfully so), and now am riding that very bandwagon.
