Never Understand

Feb 8, 2013

Blogging Circle of Friends prompt is "List three things you'll never understand."

This is a hard one because there are a lot of things I'll never understand, but here are three things that have always escaped my poor little brain.

1. Algebra
2. Geometry
3. Chemistry

Most math and science classes beyond a sixth grade level make my brain go crazy. I had to take Intermediate Algebra five times before I passed it with a C. I had to take Biology I in college three times before passing it, but I did great the third time and made an A. I took an intro to Chemistry class in college and made a D. I didn't even bother to retake that one. I was able to take some easier classes to replace that one.

I finally found out why I wasn't able to learn math and science. I was diagnoised with a brain disorder when I was 30, but my nerologist told me that I was actually born with the illness. It also hinders my ability to spell too.

This is my 100th entry in my blog! I'm watching Water for Elephants on HBO right now (it's about over now) and getting stuff gathered up for supper tonight. I'm fixing spaghetti. I'm using gluten free noodle made with brown rice flour and flaxseed. I'm also using tomato paste, tomato paste, and ground soy for the sauce, and will top it off with parmesan cheese.
