The following said something about me:
- I used to walk on my heels. That’s why I didn’t walk very well. Then I learnt you were opposed to walk by putting down your toes first. It was a realisation.
- I’m not actually colour blind but sometimes Mum and me disagree about what colour/shade a particular garment is. She’s more often right than me.
- I think I’m prettier with glasses. Without them, it becomes clear that the corners of my eyes point downwards.
- I have a fear of laser surgery, probably irrational. Perhaps fear is too strong a word but I am not going to undertake laser surgery for my short-sightedness.
- I became short-sighted in… I realised I forgot which grade exactly but in primary school.
- I’ve never quite moved beyond drawing stick figures with chalk.
- I used to like colouring books but I think I’ve lost the touch.
- I’ve set out a jigsaw puzzle on an unused table to redo but it’s been just lying there untouched, mostly. It’s been two or three years and I finally finished it several weeks ago. Now I’m onto my second set of jigsaw to be redone.
- I could not picture constellations when I look up at the sky- tried once, didn’t work with assistance. But as a child I could conjure stories out of cloud shapes.
