days of being young and foolish

Dec 26, 2005 13:05

After lunch with my MD on Tues, I had tea the next day with my colleague and my MD at Central, a new HongKong joint in Taka. (insert advert: *thick toast and peanut butter and condensed milk is YUM!*)

I digressed.

I told my MD that I think I have ADHD (a minor case, IF I'm in denial). She just stared at me in shock. Well I dunno which is funnier, that she told me she had never ever guessed or that she told me "Why didn't you say that earlier in the interview (5 years ago)."

OI CANNOT TELL MEH?!?

But she was really surprised. And considering that ever since I kinda figured that out, the closest friends whom I've mentioned it to- all gave me the same response "Man, I didn't need a doctor to tell me that!"

*clutches my fragile heart*

Anyway back to that conversation, after mulling over it for a damn long time, she said that I had covered it up damn bloody well. (Well not that I was doing any covering-up la, as if one cannot tell me bouncing off walls and making all that hullabaloo like that.) To which I told her honestly I didn't realise it earlier myself. But I guess I worked around it pretty well, keeping work in bite-sized pieces and working quickly at tasks to keep from getting horribly bored/de-motivated and keeping notes all the time. (Oh all that yaddering and hullabaloo I make to my colleagues, I slip them between the pockets of work to de-stress and 'keep sane' (but make them insane. oh well *haha*).

And then she said "Well, that really puts a big puzzle piece in place. It makes sense. ..And all the while here, I thought you were being young and foolish."

-_-

*Ahahaha!!!*
