I think a more informative question is: why are you studying in a chicken coop?

Hi markyperez,

I'm sorry to hear you're having a difficult time adapting to your working conditions at home. I can empathise to a degree -- but instead of being surrounded by baby chickens, I am entangled in vines and grapes. It is a very difficult situation to be in and oftentimes neglected as a trivial or 'joke' issue (it really isn't, shame on the people that say so).

To give you some tangible advice, I'd recommend that you use learning techniques and memory devices to your advantage. Using strategies such as narrative chaining, it may be possible to build a story around the chickens (with which you are closest of friends with) and convert that to definitions or ideas within your subjects. For example, I named each of the 78,261 vines in my property after a distinct German word to memorise my detailed study. When it came to my exam, I could simply trace my mind back to me working outside.

In a similar vein, I attributed quotes from Stasiland, Mabo, and Every Man In This Village is a Liar to each of the 17,475,513,392,278,901 grapes on these vines. For example, you could use this method when you're in an exam situation, and need to recall the definition of osmosis.

Hope these brief tips help you out. Have a nice day!

Hey man, sorry about the troll responses above. I'll try help you out here.

I understand how distracting it can be, especially when girls reveal their shoulders (Thank God for school policy, they are no longer allowed to reveal shoulders).

I recommend using oratory techniques taught to me by Heidi.

Basically as your mind ventures into a 'guilty pleasure' you squeal as loudly as you can to remove these thoughts. It's also known as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. It teaches your body to understand when you're having these thoughts and it provides a rapid fix to your problems.

In addition to this, if you're really keen on getting a phat atar score, I suggest including some physical movements. Heidi has informed me that rapid, random and spontaneous movements are definitely the way to go - they're the most effective (according to a study).

Hope this helps :).

Maybe sitting at a desk instead of on a chicken coop when studying will help. :P


In all seriousness though, maybe social media/phones should take a backseat while studying? :)

Legit though, where are you actually studying? The obvious solution is probably to move away and/or not use your phone while you're studying.

if its actually social media/phone that's the problem then it might be worth getting a blocker for your computer/phone. I downloaded one called Freedom the other week which blocks all social media on phone/computer for a certain amount of time (that you preset) and its hands down been the best thing ever

There's no need to feel guilty, it's part of being a man. Embrace it, having chicks around you is a beautiful thing ;)

P.S. Be grateful of that now, because if you're planning to do Engineering, Hard Sciences, or IT stuff in the future, you'll have a shortage to chicks to complain about :-\

I'm touched to have affected your study routines so deeply, Swagabuttal. :')

Embrace it

Or, well, I guess you could try embracing the chicks.



But honestly - you aren't forced to be round girls except in class, and everyone knows that class was never a time for study anyway, so it's entirely your choice...
