Two truths and a lie

Post Reply New Topic

Then I think 3 is your lie.

Yep. It's #3. I felt "Julius Caesar" was not complicated at all. It was a "history play" to me. I didn't try all that hard--but I still got an 85. I was actually surprised that I got such a high grade, because I really made little effort.

I don't remember the details of the play but you're right, it wasn't very complicated.

1. When I prepare for an exam I always put different bits of information in different spots of my brain. For example, I might stick "The Scottish play was written in 1606" behind my left ear. I will use spatial synaesthesia to remember where it is in my mind, so I can retrieve the fact. I also write my notes in various colours so I can retrieve them visually.

2. When I prepare for an exam I have to barricade myself in a tight small space. I was famous for sitting under furniture with bed sheets hanging down the sides. There was a perfect little snug under my desk and I fit in perfectly with my Grover muppet, who accompanied me to Uni.

3. When I prepare for an exam I have to shut out all the noise around me by listening to music on my headphones. I can remember which song goes with which bits of information. Even now the songs remind me of various mnemonics, etc.

I’m thinking #3.

You're right. I don't even own headphones, and I certainly didn't have them when I was in school.

1 and 2 are true.

1.) My sister is getting help looking for work through our state's VR Services.

2.) My mom will be retiring from the field of public education within the next 1-3 years.

3.) I have found work at my school and am now working as a contractor for student media.

#1 ?

^^

Correct!

1. I don't remember my bedroom from the house I lived in ages 0 - 5, nor do I remember my bedroom on our cabin cruiser boat.

2. I don't remember my grandparents' house even though they lived two doors down from me. I don't even recall the exterior.

3. I don't remember my aunt's house in Wales even though I was twelve the last time I visited.

I'm sensing #2.

Is it the first one?

3 is my lie.

1 is true

2 is true
I've never even seen a picture of my grandparents' house. It drives me mad that few people took photos of places back when photo-developing was expensive.

My grandparents lived in the home two doors down from me until I was five. That's why I don't remember it well.

After that year,

1. My family moved hundreds of km away.

2. My grandfather disappeared for almost eight years, during which time my grandmother had the house demolished. She moved away and died soon after.

3. My grandfather came back when I was twelve and purchased a different property, which I visited two months ago for the first time since his death (thirty + years ago)

#3. Your grandfather came back at a later time.

Is it the third one?

#1 is my lie. We only moved about 20 km away. The reason I never saw their house again as I grew older was because my grandmother demolished it and sold the property before she moved.

2 is true.

3 is true. My grandfather returned and bought a huge waterfront property (about 400 km from his previous home, and my home). His house is where I had my horses. He died there on my 16th birthday and I didn't go back to the area until this year in June.
