We finished the testing for dyslexia, or rather, cognitive problems, and I got the results. Although they can't just give me a certificate and say I have dyslexia; the tester said that I have a cognitive disability. But, to sum it up, I have trouble with my auditory memory; a portion of the working memory. In the test part it had been people on a tape saying numbers and I have to repeat them backwards. Gods that was hard. It also effects remembering things and following recipes.
But I'm glad its over. I was so nervous when my teacher was talking to my parents about that. I almost went inside (we were playing baseball) and into th tester's room, just to hear what they were saying.
The teachers also thought it was pointless 'cuz it doesn't really influence the marks I get, or at least it doesn't seem too, but who knows, I might have some hidden power waiting to be released. We would only know until I crack this barrier.

Ummm... second post ever?
Well, its me again. I had a dream last night about Harry Potter. Maybe I should stop reading all that fan fiction stories and visiting Mugglenet all the time. It would help don't you think?
I found out that I might be dyslexic; its a learning disability that affects the way you write and read and messing up words. It says in wikipedia:
dyslexics show reduced activity in the left inferior parietal cortex. It is anecdotally claimed that it is not that uncommon for dyslexics who have trained themselves to cope with their affliction to develop uncannily efficient visual memories which aid in reading and comprehending large quantities of information much faster than is typical.
People with Dyslexia usually have average IQ s and get dyslexia genetically or from some kind of brain damage. Since, at least three people in my family have it so there no doubt where I could have gotten it from. This is the test to see if your dyslexic. It has 37 things and if you have at least 9 things you should get tested: Link.
I am also going to try and finish my chapter of Sword's Eyes but I might not. Who knows?
