After the 'I Should Go To Sleep' O'Clock

What happens between "I should go to sleep" o'clock and "I sleep" o'clock.


00:00 I should go to sleep... Oh, I should also paint my nails.

00:05 I start making a new website.

00:45 I find a nice picture of my mom. I start photoshopping it.

02:30 I have photoshopped 3 photos besides the one of my mom.

02:35 I continue with the website.

03:00 I start writing the version 2 of my screenplay.

03:15 I continue with the website.

03:25 I'm hungry. Cooking noodles.

03:45 I continue writing the screenplay.


04:15 I continue with the website.

05:00 I will go to sleep in a moment.

05:05 Oh! I must give the cat his medicine!

05:40 Now I go to sleep. I turn off my computer.

05:45 Oh, I was supposed to paint my nails. I shall do it now.

06:00 I sit on the sofa, waiting for the nail polish to dry.

06:05 I read news with my cellphone.

06:30 I go to bed. And get lots of good ideas for what to do when I wake up.

About 07:15 I sleep.

Letters of My Life: B is for Books

I love to read, yet I’m slow with it thanks to the ADD. It takes me about 6-12 months to read a book no matter how interesting it is to me. Also I have many books in process at the same time. Currently I’m reading a book about positive psychology, Douglas Coupland’s Jpod, Daniel Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence and Tony Dunderfelt’s Intuition.


Like you can see, I prefer non-fiction books more than fiction. Which is a little bit contradictory for someone who is a fiction writer. Or is it? Anyhow, I’m just so much more interested about non-fiction. It inspires me with my own work so much more than fiction. Even though I love fiction too, but for me it’s more of a way of spending time. Non-fiction helps you to learn new things more actively.


Especially books about psychology related things and occultism are my favorites. I used to read lots of poetry, but lately I haven’t been so much into it. My favorite fiction writer so far has been Douglas Coupland. He has the greatest sense of black and ironic humor!

Letters of My Life: A is for ADD

I've had ADD (which is like ADHD, but without the H of hyperactivity) all my life, however I got diagnosed only about half year ago, at age of 25. Getting the diagnosis felt extremely weird but at the same time it helped me to understand many things. Also the medicine has increased my ability to concentrate. Which has been a huge deal for me, especially when it comes to studies. I can handle the uncomfortable social situations when I'm supposed to listen but can't concentrate at all. Because I'm so used to them. But at studies it's double as uncomfortable when you can't concentrate no matter how hard you tried.

For a person with AD(H)D it's not a matter of will or amount of interest to the subject but a neurological inability to concentrate, and it can't be effected with willpower.
