Re: Your preferred learning style
I am auditory. I can listen to many things and remember them better than if I read them or if I saw them. For instance, I once figured out how to play a little bit of the theme from "Jurassic Park" on my saxophone as a beginning player after only listening to the theme a few times. Now, I ...

Re: attention spans/concentration
I have trouble concentrating when there are a great many noises at once. Also, if I don't like the class I generally do not pay attention very well. I'm interrupting a lot and stuff too. I kind of have a short attention span when it comes to like if I am reading a book or something if it is a long b...

Re: Romantic relationships
I wouldn't know much about romantic relationships, but I think that you have to be really confident in yourself before you persue one like Dan said. I also think that you have to be willing to put yourself out there and be brave. If you aren't willing to be brave then you won't take the leap and go ...

Re: Dyspraxic friendly jobs
Hi. I have just graduated from college and it has been hard for all of us '08 grads to find work in our fields. :( Fortunately, I have a part-time job that is well suited to my skills and I keep improving upon my people skills there. :) I work in a chain store and it's a great place there. I have ad...

Re: Harry Potter
"Harry Potter" is my absolute favorite book series! I have read the first four books a great many times and plan to read the other three just as many or more times. I got into it when I was fourteen and the fourth book had just come out. I was what I call a "first generation" Pot...

Re: Re
Can relate to your situation. If I have to remember something "new" not on "my memory checklist" theres a good chance I'll forget it. Don't worry my memory is shite too ..............:( Ditto here. I have to write things of importance down or I'll forget. This applies to almost ...

Problems with "reading people."
I have a few problems, okay make that a lot of problems, reading people. I can't seem to figure out if they are serious or joking or what the hidden meaning is behind their actions or tone of voice. Facial and bodily guestures are exctremely hard to figure out and I think if I knew more about how th...

Re: Daniel Radcliffe is Dyspraxic!
I was really pleased to hear about this as it's not often dyspraxia receives much media attention, it is not as well known as conditions like dyslexia, ADHD and autism, all of which are mentioned quite frequently in the press. It's positive recognition as well as Harry Potter is such a well known a...

Re: Strenghts
It makes total sense. I have found most of my strengths simply by pursuing the things I liked to do. I like writing, so I did a few writing classes at school and part of that fit into my major. Of course, because of the economy, I have not found a job in my field yet but I still write a lot on the s...
