Every student has its saturation point varying in different ages. As a college student, I think my saturation point scientifically is 30? or 45 minutes. I really don't know the numbers but there really is and it accepted for a fact. After this, you concentration goes million of miles away from the lesson, so what I do is just doodle. Even if my saturation point is not yet reached, since my teacher, lesson and everything else are boring I start doodling. I draw many stuff like abstract art to weird faces in my lecture notebook and sometime on the desk itself. My biggest doodle woul be when I draw my old female teacher in Inorganic Chemistry class on the desk. It's really good(just don't try it.lol). I know it's bad to vandalize the school property but I find it fun. but now, I just doodle in my notebook, with different faces. Actually because of that I'll try painting. My doodle art reflects the people of my home country: poverty and hunger. Tell me what do you doodle?animals?plants?classmate?crush?

I don't doodle on the desk, haha. I only do at the back of my notebook. What I doodled usually were the words that the teacher said, especially if those words were really funny or interesting in some way. Sometimes I drew my classmates. There was one time when we attended a seminar, and I got kinda bored so I drew the face of the chubby lecturer. LOL.

That's very funny!!LOL, So you really use the adjective "chubby". Wahahaha. Anyways, that's very human in nature I think I've read or heard this doodling is better since you can actually "listen more". Idon't how that works. anyway, thanks for the reply.

I never really doodled in class. Okay, take that back, I did once or twice when I was really bored out of my skull. It was never for any rhyme or reason. When the teachers tended to go into long winded lectures, I was taking notes but eventually I got disinterested with the subject from time to time. So, I worked on work from other classes instead of doodled. I was the kind of student who milked every single minute they could out of the day, so I did not have to do any work at home.

That's a very good way of saving time or saving yourself from falling to the abyss of boredom. But, I suggest you doodle sometimes since it relaxes you more and what if you have a hidden art talent. DOn't stress yourself much on work. Loosen up, we do not live to work but to appreciate the beauty of life God has given upon us.
