Dyslexia

Dyslexia is something I hate. I don't hate people with dyslexia, I just hate it. One of my friends have it and sometimes it's quite hard to watch her getting criticized by our teacher, so I am going to do this dyslexia post to help those without it to help those with it.

The definition of dyslexia is-
 Any of various reading disorders associated with impairment of the ability to interpret spatial relationships or to integrate auditory and visual information.

Dyslexia is basically the fact that your brain isn't properly learning about things written down. It's nothing to do with the way your taught, but the way your brain responds to it. Like, a simple word like "mean" would be difficult to read because in their head, they don't see letters like us, they may see them backwards or even upside down which takes the brain longer to process.

Sometimes dyslexia affects speech, I know two people with dyslexia and one of them always stutters  before talking and the other can't pronounce certain words properly. Like, instead of saying out, she would say "a-oot" and she sounds like she's saying it in a Geordie accent even though she's Scottish.

I also know another girl who has it and tries to cover it up, like she actually says she doesn't have it. We all know she does because the teacher has her in the dyslexia group, but we don't mind. None of the girls bother about things like that. Although we can't stop the boys from being boys.

Hope this helped!

What not to do when...Introducing yourself.

 Hey guys,
So I'm starting a series of posts on what not to do when.... please look through to whole series and enjoy.
I AM NOT PROFESSIONAL AND IF YOU DON'T AGREE THAT'S
FINE IT'S JUST MY OPINION

Introducing yourself

Don't but in, let them talk.
You'll have your time to say who you are and what you like, just let them have their turn and let it go on for as long as they want. If it's dragging on a bit just simply tell them without being rude, "I have to go, I'll meet you at..." and when you meet up make it your turn to speak, then hopefully it will turn into a conversation.

Don't brag.
OK, we get it. your auntie is Selena Gomez's best friend. You met Justin Beiber and he said you were pretty. Big Whoop! You've got to get over yourself and have a conversation without making the other person feel different and left out, they won't think of you as a nice person if you do.

Don't laugh at the other person.
So what if they live in a cottage in a field? So what if they are allergic to this sun? So what if their blog only has 3 followers? That's 3 more than me! The other person isn't a puppet and has feelings as well. Say you have eczema, would you like some one laughing and saying your weird? Exactly.

Don't go and stalk them.
Yes, add them on Facebook,  Twitter,  Google + and Instagram, but don't look through every photo and comment your opinion. If they post a pic you don't like, or don't think is appropriate, then by all means, report it, but if it's a photo of her and her besto then don't go all jealous and comment things like:
"Liar! You said I was your bestie?!" Because you won't be after that.

Don't worry.
Don't be scared to say hello. Their probably as shy as you and if you say hello to them it will make them please and happy you chose to talk to them not the super pretty popular girl.

And Just Have Fun!

Hope you enjoyed this post I enjoyed writing it! Please use this if you meet someone,
Because I would be pleased if you used it with me!

Last day of being a child

Hey Pancake's,
So something exciting happened to me on wednesday! I became a first year (freshman or whatever you call it)! I had my last year at Primary School (or middle school or whatever English people call it!) and I loved it!

  On my last day we watched Pitch Perfect and it was great fun! The teacher wasn't very pleased by it though! At the end of the day we all run out of school and get sprayed by silly string, shaving foam and water balloons! I ended up having three showers and I still was sticky and covered in foam! 

I loved my seven years at primary and I'm going to use this post to show it. I want to say thank you to all my teachers and head teachers, to LK, my favourite teacher! When ever I was upset, Mrs K  you where always there, when I had a sore head you helped me, you will always be there for me, and I just want to make it up to you by saying thanks x

I never cried on my last day, but I think I might cry now! 

I just remembered very important teacher I missed out, Mrs B for being my headmistress from P1-P5. You were ten times better than our new one. I hope you will come visit us in high school, thank you so much xxx

Hope you enjoyed listening to my memories, thanks x
