I wish I could say the same thing. A while ago... or a year or two ago, might be more accurate, I learned that I couldn't stand silence too long. I wouldn't act weird if it was too quiet most of the time, but I learned that I lost much of my concentration and I started to irritate myself. Having music on in the mean time usually did the trick, though the talking of people - no matter who - always worked better for me.
A "leave me alone" would therefore not be very accurate for me. Though I'll admit I was something like that once too, but I learned I just couldn't keep it up. That's just my personality.
Nowadays, I still stick to the same as I always wanted to be. I learned that I concentrate well with sound around me, so when people are talking and I am making an assignment, everything goes all too well. When I am supposed to make it in a quiet enviroment, it usually don't come out well... or at least, not as good as it is supposed to be.
I'd like to say "I just want to finish school as fast as possible" as well, but unfortunately, that is not the case for me. Chances are getting less each day that I'll make it through the year, graduating, especially since yesterday when I heard the result of my latest test... which was... quite disappointing. But besides that, even if I make it through this year and graduate, I'll still have five years in front of me until I can finally reach the studycourse I want to go to. So, for the first five years, I'll be having school.
Not that I mind it too much. With an exception of my freshman year at Junior High, I always had a (good) reason to go to school and found or made a way to enjoy it... as I still do.
*scratches the back of his head*
It's just a little harder when you see my grades at this very moment
At this moment, there is no way I'll graduate this year.
