HELP!

I have a mid-term due this evening and my mom is distracting me. Men came this morning with a big loud vacuum to clean out our vents and she gave them cranberry bread, which was very cute and made them happy. But now she won't stop talking to me. When I was younger, I used to have to ask my dad to turn down Bruce Springsteen so I could concentrate on my math homework. It's truly a mystery why I never learned good study habits until I left for college.
