It depends on what I'm doing. I can be doing something for example like this and then probably in another 5 minutes I might get bored again. School is the worse, I stay in the classroom for like 45 minutes a period and certain classes Entrepreneurship [which I can't even spell] and English I usually go to sleep around 5 minutes after the class begins. They usually yell at me or sometimes throw Chalk at me to wake me up



:t354:TG

My 5th grade teacher did that.

I feel asleep during math last year once...

Abby- zzz...
Mr. Cruice- What is the answer to number 14, Abby?
Abby- Wha?! Uh, 2!
 
My attention span during school is bad when the teachers are talking. But when it gets to the work i can spend all lesson on it.

Outside of school have a long one. I can do the same thing for hours.
 
...Hmmm, wha?

Well, it's obvious that things that are not interesting will bore me to death (or to sleep, whichever comes first...), even if I try to put more attention, then I get bored even easily...

I once read that a normal person's attention span is close to 12 minutes, probably mine is somewhere near to that.
 
Depends on what I'm doing, actually.

If I'm really into something, I can sit there and do it for days (even foregoing sleep.) However, when it comes to things I don't particularly like.. my attention span tends to get very small. XD; (Selective attention span. :D)
Ditto, mine depends on the situation too, fun, yes, school, sometimes, Social Studies/History, ya think?!No, can't stand it.
 
I think my attention span's getting worse. I love to write, but I just can't do it for long periods of time. Or, at least, not on the computer. If it's on paper, I can write for hours without break. But there's just something about typing it that I can't sit down for hours.

...okay, so maybe my attention span is just bad for writing. Internet? Just fine. Video games? Just fine. Homework? Just as bad as writing.

So, I guess I'm selective. :3
 
I get bored when I have to pay attention to something I hate. I have a great attention span, especially when I put my mind into it. It's just that I don't feel like using it sometimes.
 
I have ADHD so my Attention span tends to be very short. XD
 
i have a short attchion span and a really bad at remembering
 
A lot of the times I get so bored. Someone can just be talking and I'll just stop listening. xD. Sometimes though, I can stay attentive so I voted for short.
 
Depending on the situation, the length of my attention span varies...
E.g. In class, depending on what class, I could be completely focused for the whole period in one subject but bored in another. My attention span usually can last quite a while unless I'm bored or annoyed at the time..

However, studying or revising is another story...
My attention span then is so short!! I get too easily distracted.
