I’m happy to realize what the method to the madness is that I’ve been dealing with this quarter. It’s been very difficult for me to stay on one task for more than an hour (which if you think about it in the grand scheme of course load, isn’t much). But I’ve been trying to ‘task-juggle’ which is a trait that doesn’t come naturally to me. To be a single-tasker is going to take, for me, complete seclusion, i.e. the library. My roommates and I get along too well for me to get very much done.
