She's probably right... Most of the time they are...
See you when you get back. Behave, maybe she'll lift it soon.

Heres whats saved me incredible grief.
First- If you have a horrible time working on hw and always feel pulled to do something else/always get off topic during hw and f around throwing a ball around being distracted, go to your doctor and see if you have add. I just learned i have it and since i got the medicine i can concentrate and learn way better. I have a b in precalc and physics for gods sake, last semester I had a D in physics and a 55% in Precalc. (2.3gpa last semester to a 3.7 gpa this semester, and yes im serious)
2nd- if you just are a lazy bitch that doesn't try, ask your parents to take away the cpu to take away temptation. Work on grades only, they are bound to go up, if you don't want to do this, ask your parents for some pc time so you have some time to have so fun online with your friends on the web. Not the whole day, just maybe 4-5 hrs max on weekends only.
3rd- If your parents just hate video games and ban you from playing them....your screwed if they are actually serious. Currently, I can only play CSS from 10pm-2am ish b/c they are asleep and i have horrible insomnia anyway. Just ask them to trust you to be more diligent w/ time spent on the cpu and hope for the best. O and um, if you have been playing during the week stop and ask them if you can play weekends only. If none of this works Email them certain guidelines that you have to have done so you can play such as -If I keep a 3.0 gpa i can play games, less and i am baned till its up again.

still banned from comp but i will sometimes be on at weekends til study leave when exams start so yeah

Can't comment because I don't know how old you are, and how much you actually study.
Getting the grades (the ones that matter) is something you'll always look back in life and be please about. Sets you a much better path, depending on what you'll do as a career.
How many hours a night do you study? Any more than 3 is unreasonable, unless you have very important exams coming up.
I often actually use the computer to help me concentrate at times. When i really am in a state of unfocusness, I play the round games of CS1.6 and study imbetween, or just stick on some music (helps a lot)

Interesting kiwi. I sometimes feel like I have the same thing. I can start some work, highlight about 3 lines of something, and then crave to do something else. I can only concentrate properly when there's real reason to, there's no distractions, or when im double-tasking (e.g. listening to music). When i 'nuckle down and work', i always have an urge to fidget with something else.
I might read up more about this Add.
