I Did The Impossible! So there
Posted on September 12, 2007 |
I love this. As a child I had a lot of difficulties in school. Teachers seemed confusing and I really didn't understand what they were going on about.
One day in the 2nd grade my teacher was introducing the idea of states of matter, so she asked one of us to name a state of matter.
I immediately raised my had and when called upon exclaimed, "Plasma!" (which is correct). I was reprimanded and told I was stupid. I was forced to take an IQ test to see if I was mentally retarded.
When I scored in the top 2% of children statewide up to age 14 I realized I wasn't the stupid one.
