Alternative title: pbradley tries his hand at sway-esque prose
When I was in elementary school, I had a hard time reading on the same level as my fellow classmates. To address this "disability," I transfered into a private school and entered a tutoring program. After a little while, I caught up and, with time, even surpassed many of my peers (at least in English).
Though I thought nothing of it for a long time, my curiosity of this learning abnormality grew as I became more self-reflective. I figured it was somehow related to my abysmal skill at foreign languages. Recently, my mother said that the test indicated that I have a difficult time moving information from my short-term memory into long-term without substantial effort. In practice, my priorities play a pivotal role in my memory which then in turn makes me look like a egotistical douche for not remembering so-and-so's name at a party or predictably one-track if you are aware of my priorities. I have a pre-conscious aversion to retaining "pointless" information. Yet this sounds more like a stereotype of myopic scientists too busy thinking of their study. I can only conclude that I was born a mindless philosopher. Me = fucked.
Care to share your own self-observations? I really do care to read them, I just might fail the exam later on.
