Oct from Christy - visual learning

 


Christy sent this from Ohio. I was going to say that her daughter signed up for November - but then I remembered that it was Cindy's daughter who signed up. I confuse people when I don't know them in person and they have names that are visually similar - as in - 5 letters, starts with C and ends with y. Also, I have all the exchangers on a visual map in my head and I group them by what direction one would have to travel from Des Moines to find them. Both of these C---y people live to the east and south of Des Moines. This is not interesting information, I only mention it to illustrate that I am a visual learner. 

As a kid and even in college - if I had to study for a test, I would put all the information on one sheet of paper - and tape pages together if it didn't fit on one page - and then - during the test - I could access the information by thinking about where it was on my map. And then - as I walked out of the room where I took the test - all of the information would dribble out of my ears and fall on the ground. But, I'd get a good grade.

I am not a fan of that system of learning. 

Yesterday was the first post I wrote while in Chicago as I drank the morning coffee - which is much stronger than my normal brew. I wonder how many posts I'll get done.
