imperfect 10......

October, the start of the ordeal.

This is the month where the actual O level starts. I did fairly poorly for my prelims,
so i hope i can score better in my O's as they say that the O's are easier.

I really have not start any revisions yet. I just went through the things which I don't know and those which I am not sure, but there is no actual memory work for those facts that are required in SS and Geog.

Worse still, I'm beginning to suspect that i am suffering from ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. I did a self diagnose and found some disturbing results.

For those who are reading this, I'm sure you know me and you can help justify my diagnosed symptoms.

Symptoms of ADHD (A rough guide) :
1. Easily distracted, forgets things and miss details [X]
2. Have difficulties focusing on one task [X]
3. Become bored with task after a short while unless doing something enjoyable [X]
4. Have difficulties focusing attention organising and completing a task [ ]
5. Have trouble completing assignments and losing tools needed for assignment [X]
6. Not seem to listen when spoken to [ ]
7. Daydream, easily confused and move slowly [ ]
8. Have difficulties processing info as quickly and accurately as others [X]
9. Struggle to follow instructions [X]
10. Fidget and squirm in seats [X]
11. Talk non-stop [X]
12. Dash around, touching and playing with things in sight [X]
13. Have trouble sitting still during dinner, school etc. [ ]
14. Constantly in motion [X]
15. Have difficulties doing quite tasks or activities [X]
16. Very impatient [ ]
17. Blurt out inappropriate comments, no restraints on emotion and no regards for consequences [X]
18. Have difficulties waiting in turn [ ]

RESULTS: 12/18

Scary huh? But it is even scarier to diagnose yourself and find the truth, trust me on this one.
But then again, there should be minimal inconvenience, as there is hardly anyone that i communicate with.

Oh well, I try not to think about it too much. After all, my O's are still gonna come regardless whether i have ADHD or not.
