People Think I'm Strange When I

[Brilliand]

I'm a visual learner. But I am NOT going to color-code my notes, or even take notes (except in extreme situations). Maybe I have a touch of auditory as well.

Maybe, with none of them, you read the teacher's mind. Eh, kinda makes sense for ...

And now I will cause you auditory pain

Don't talk to me about upper lip. I just came from the dentist and half my tongue and face is numb.

Worse, I told Nick, and he asked me if I wanted to play "the stranger" with him. Stupid oversexed gamma jerk husband. *mutter mutter mutter*

it's so much easier to bullshit in writing, lol.

My favourite learning style is kinesthetic - auditory would be second. I definitely learn best by doing something. Someone can show me how to do something over and over and I'll still be 'what?' until I actually practice doing it myself. If I'm reading something that I have trouble understanding, I'll usually read it out loud to myself.

People think I'm weird when I pull funny faces out of the blue.
People think I'm weird when I can't stop laughing about something that is apparently not that funny.
People think I'm weird when I get emotional about stupid little things.
People think I'm weird that I can be quiet one minute and then all hypo the next.
People think I'm weird just in general I think.

I think we must have been separated at birth Dolphin. The evidence certainly points to it.

So you're a kinesthetic learner as well?

JUST SAY ISFP CAN DO IT ALL.

lol I know. :wink:

I think I'm a kinesthetic learner in denial....because. idk. People seem to think if you are one, you're somehow not as smart as the people who get stuff by talking it out.

I can understand things when people talk them out too....but it really does help if they're accompanied by some physical demonstration or a really good detailed example or various hand gestures, etc. Or when they walk you through the problem, so you learn how to solve it yourself.

Lately I've been noticing that I don't pay attention to people's words as much as I should...they're talking away, and I'm nodding like I understand, but I'm really not listening to their words so much as paying attention to their movements and physical presence. It's weird.

Yeah - I do that too. There's this friend of mine who talks a mile a minute - and really intensely too. After a while it's gets too mentally exhausting to process everything she says - so I tune out and I'm just nodding at appropriate intervals and finding her intensity fascinating. And then she'll say something like 'I love talking to you - I can tell you really understand me. A lot of people don't get what I'm trying to say'. lol It's good to know I can look intelligent even when I'm not thinking ha ha

Oh yes... people think I'm weird when I think of something funny and burst out laughing without telling anyone the joke first. Usually I can't even explain the joke afterwards.
