The problem with me is that my attention span is too short, or rather, I'm too easily distracted. When I'm into something, I'm totally into it, until something else gets my attention. U know, like those Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books that you read as a kid, how you leap from page to page as you make your decisions. Well, my interests are something like that. One moment, I'm madly enthusiastic about diving, and the next thing you know, while surfing the net for info on dive sites in Mexico, I become intrigued by the history of Mexico, and then a few days later, I started reading about Spain in the 15th century 'cos I want to know the background on the invasion of Mexico by Spain. 

Well, I like it this way. That's what life is all about - new interests, new passions, intellectual discoveries, and freedom to pursue what you believe in.
