I love listening to music. But sometimes I feel really useless and inefficient if I JUST listen to music. So I try to multi-task. I read. Or do homework. Or something else that needs doing. But then...I don't pay attention to the music as well! I will go through a song or two without even paying attention to it. Or I will read some Brothers Karamazov and definitely NOT get the meaning behind it because I was too busy concentrating on my music.

The only time I can find a balance between listening and doing is when I'm driving alone, or cleaning my room. I don't have enough long drives to myself though.

Do you guys face this problem? What do you do while you're listening to music? Do you multi-task? Just lie on the couch and let the music envelop you? Any solutions or suggestions?
