I distract myself, I bore myself, I somehow tune out the teacher's voice, I can't stop listening to music, I draw on everything, I forget about homework, I put things off, I lose things... It's like I don't care about my grades at all, when in fact I really do. But no matter how hard I try, I can not keep my mind on my work unless I'm in one of my rare manic phases. I got three D's last semester and I'm really freaking out about Algebra II next year, but I can't remember a bit of math. People tell me I'm smart when I feel like a real idiot.
