My reading comprehension was bad, that I cannot rely on it in studying during school.
Kinda why attempting to tutor me would fail and do nothing.

I basically learnt a little except 'memorizing stuff' -- which I'm not good at -- and 'pattern things through' -- which I happened to be good at.

It was even true even during college.


I don't even know the essence and significance of many facts as a child AND as a teenager.


But I don't have issues about reading. I can read fast just as I write fast.
I have issues about words and languages regardless of how fast I'm, comprehension is still trickier.

The prospects of starting a flea market day without coffee scares me. What if I'm seen with my hanky?

I had a revelation about myself yesterday. Must have been all the painkillers I was on. It doesn't really seem half as important today.

If that's all that I have to worry about, I must live a pretty easy life.

Which part; the coffee or the hanky?

Every time I hear someone rustle a plastic bag I think they have treats for me.

It astounds me how the British are able to keep calm and carry on, no matter what.

I'm often mistaken for being South American.

I know many Greek and Spanish swear words.

I experience extreme social anxiety about going to my local fish and chip shop. They are a chatty bunch and I blush like an idiot every time they talk try have a conversation with me.

So instead, I pay an extra £7 to have it delivered (they're a 4min walk from me). :oops:

I know. I've been known to walk miles out of my way just to get somewhere just do I don't bump into anyone who might want to talk to me.

I'm guilty of that too!

I find coffee makes conversations easier for me.
