wth. dyslexia...

Written on: Saturday, September 01, 2007

Three words to spell out.

I HATE MATHS

I can't even goddamn remember certain basic methods.

For example, what is the volume of a cube?

Its supposed to be L x B x H

BUT I ONLY REMEMBERED B x H

I can't even remember that damn L.

I even asked my brain "FASTER! think think! whats the letter before B and H?!"

too late. I think too long and my tutor scolded me like usual....

People tell me this: You know, you must learn to love your subjects... If you don't love them, how are you going to work with them? ...blah blah"

Love them... you tell me to love them, i tried to LOVE them as much as I can but its NOT WORKING. I still don't get any chemistry with them! (ESPECIALLY MATHS)

Maths is my worst enemy. My arch enemy...
WAH LIAO. i feel goddamn stupid.

STUPID. HOW STUPID. I'll bet you are so surprised with why such simple question I can't even asnwer? I'll bet you are saying "Omg, you don't even know?! Omg..."

LIKE THAT IVY LU.
wtf, thank you for your "OMG! U DUN KNOW? MY GOD"

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. thats what people always say it to encourage.
HOW MUCH PRACTICES DO I HAVE TO MAKE TO MAKE IT PERFECT?

I do and do and do and do.
Still no good.

Like one time, just the day BEFORE my maths standard test, we were tested on co-ordinate geometry. I just had 2 hours tution LAST NIGHT! I even have a CLEAR vision of whats its about. BUT WHEN I WOKE UP IN THE MORNING AND SEE THE MATHS PAPER....

NOTHING CAME OUT IN MY MIND.
A BLANK.
As expected, I FAILED.

I told myself "WHY?! just one day before my test, I ran through with my tutor and even after my lesson ended, I revise them again! And I slept WELL! But the moment I see the questions on the test, its like I can't even do a damn!"

I feel that Im really SLOW when comes to maths. Even trying to absorb the methods is also a difficult task for me.

Although I have to admit that my recent maths exam result is getting better than the previous exam but its definetely still NOT GOOD at all.

Know something?

When I was still in primary school.. i think.... once in a while, my mother brought me to see Sister Jack's brother, who is a physcologist (im not sure but its about that)

I always wondered why I had to go there. Being questioned by him and in the end of the lesson, I just sat there quietly while watching my parents having a talk with him. I even asked my mother why I had to go through that lesson, she just told me "You say you always hate maths, we wanted to know why you feel so. So Uncle will have a talk with you and see why you feel like that...blah blah"

Well, as I was still quite young, I won't understand what the main point is.
But now Im older, Im more aware. Ok, straight to the point

A few days ago, my mum mentioned that Sister Jack's brother said I'm suffering from Dyslexia.

She said it was still kinda a good thing that I have a mild dyslexia.

Dyslexia is a learning diffuculty. Children with dyslexia find it diffucult to read, write, spell and comprehend written passages and articulate their thoughts even though they are smart enough and are motivated to learn.

Dyslexia is a hidden handicap -- you can't see it when you look at the child or hear it when you talk to the child. A child who has dyslexia might start out doing fine in school. But gradually, it can become a struggle.

FACTS OF DYSLEXIA

- Children with dyslexia are usually of normal intelligence.

- Dyslexia can run in the family.

- It is a life-long condition.

- Children with dyslexia are often misunderstood to be 'lazy', 'stupid' or 'not trying hard enough'.

- Dyslexia varies in severity from one individual to another.

Typically, with dyslexia, there is a wide gap between IQ and school achievement. Often, the dyslexia child's ability to think creatively and abstractly is good but his basic reading and spelling skills are weak.

Dyslexia can not only be found in children. Even adults also have it.

I was shocked to hear it man. Wah liao. I have enough problems and now I get A NEW ONE. Just when will I get enough of this?! it really pisses me off. Im getting fed up can.

After hearing it, i feel a bit sorry for myself BUT I'M MUCH MOE FED UP. STUPID DYSLEXIA, WHY DID YOU COME INTO MY LIFE?! Now im struggling so hard all of because of you! SIAN. I don't believe that I'm suffering from it!

My mum even said, MAYBE she will take me to the Dyslexia Centre to find out whether I'm really a dyslexia person or not. SIAN. i even dislike the thought of going there! What if it comes true?! Wah liao. Then all the more I need to FIGHT AGAINST IT LIAO.

Somemore it says "life-long condition"

THANK YOU FOR YOUR "ENCOURAGEMENT" (@Q#*&@(&@(*&!!!!!
