Too much information / the feeling of logic.

Jan 25, 2013 13:13

I posted last summer about popcorn thoughts, which allow a lot of things to be going on at the same time, and I have to say that they're a fairly normal state for me in a class. But today I got a logic headache, from information-related brainfreeze ( Read more... )

*hugs*

The coding stuff sounds really cool, but it also sounds like it would break my brain - on tests I come out as middle-brained too, but man. Math and analytical stuff, I don't even know. I can still feel you a bit though - I used to do math like that back in school, figuring out weird stuff about patterns in the numbers instead of the way you were supposed to do it. Okay, so it might not be very close at all, but the thing about spaces between numbers made me remember that.

And yeah, it sucks to get interrupted in the middle of a thought process like that. Like when John tries to talk to me, and he takes it personally and gets all upset if I don't drop what I'm doing and focus on him, and I'm trying to write, and it just messes everything up.

Ugh I feel like I'm talking about myself but really I guess I'm just trying to say that I can sort of understand (and providing examples to back that up) and that you're not alone. *hugs*

I hope you digest the logic soon and get to feeling better. And the overwhelmed with sensory input bit - I used to cope with that in quite destructive ways in my early to mid 20s.

I understand not wanting to go to the hockey game - it could be like a holiday with my in-laws, where there's all this noise and it bothers me.

Also dinner is ready so I gotta go now. I'm glad typing things out helped. :)

You replied to the first comment while I was typing this. Yay for Minecraft! I hope the gym goes well too. :)

Minecraft helped, so did spamming the hell out of the excercize bike. I think I'm just fed up to the teeth with math majors. :) There are way too many patterns in that class, how am I supposed to concentrate on just one? Though, nothing brings out my obsessive tendencies like a half-finished decryption.

Part of my problem with my partner though is just that he looks for confirmation before he tries something and I like to solve puzzles myself. The other bad thing is, he doesn't listen, that or he's misinterpreting everything when I try to tell him what we're doing wrong. I get along with most of the rest of the class, though, so I'm just hoping that when we switch partners again on Monday it will be someone else's turn to deal with him.

I usually just hide under my bed with a book or my laptop and wait for the world to go away. :)

So, they went roller skating instead and I don't think my ankle's quite strong enough for that, so I stayed home and played Sims. I finally started playing the first college rotation and, I've gotta say, I'm surprised at how much fun the new characters are. Bastian and Amadeus rock.
