What about Game of Thrones?

oh goodness. I’ve never actually watched Game of Thrones so this will be fun lol

Push off a cliff: That Joffrey kid seems like he deserves it. He’s bad news. I think.Frick frack: Jon Snow? I think that’s his name. The bastard that knows not. He’s not the one that sleeps with his sister is he? please tell me he’s not.Marry: well see I hear weddings don’t go over well in this fandom so… Set on fire: Well obviously not the dragon lady because fire cannot kill a dragon. The dude who doesn’t deserve a braid. He seems kinda slimy. The flammable kind of slime.Wrap a blanket around: I feel that if I tried to wrap a blanket around half of these people I would die. Um… Sansa? I think I see stuff about her needing comfort more than anyone else. Or Sean Bean. Cause he usually plays characters that need blankets. Is he even still alive in the show? I don’t know who he played. He was the dude that said “Winter is Coming” right?Be roommates with: Arya. Or Sansa.

Nemo: My bravest moment

(sorry this took so long)

Um… I haven’t really done a lot that requires being brave in my life (and the few things that did, I didn’t really act brave)

The biggest thing I can think of is when I sang the Star Spangled Banner by myself at my school’s Rhythm and Movement Showcase night (which is this really stupid thing where the P.E. classes have to get up onstage and demonstrate what they’ve been working on all semester) but believe me I wasn’t brave about it.

The P.E. teacher in charge of the event (my aerobics teacher) had walked into my acting class and was like “Noelle you’re in the top choir, right?” so I said yes and then she said she was going to have me sing the national anthem at this thing.

I don’t sing in front of people unless it’s in choir (cause then it’s not just me) or the people are my friends that are actually allowed to make fun of me.

So the night of this event comes up and I’m freaking out a lot. Like I literally cried. A lot. And my friend Tyler (who was in charge of sound that night) was trying to help me calm down and my friend Herman (who used to be in choir with me and was the emcee for the night) tried to convince the teacher to let him sing with me and my friends from my aerobics class were trying to help and honestly it was just this huge stressful for everyone thing that wouldn’t have happened if I had just been more brave.

But I did it. And I only hyperventilated a little bit afterward. And that is, sadly, my attempt at bravery.

I posted this video about new findings in nonverbal learning disability research on my blog THE ODD BIRD a while ago, but I thought I'd link to it here as well.

We're now in a golden age of neuroscience, and I'm hoping that this means there will be a major breakthrough in the understanding of nonverbal learning disability soon.

Note: I have more information about  Michigan State's NVLD research results here.
