blue blink

blue blink! kaibigan ng mga duwag.. hehehe ito ang gusto ko makilala... sana makilala ko na sya.. kailangan ko kc ng tapang at lakas ng loob.. sana makilala ko na sya..
siguro nga ang ka duwagan ay isang uri din ng katangahan.. e di siguro ganun ako.. hahahah!

Isinusulat ko to habang naalala ang mga kwento ko nung mdjo bata pa ako, isa akong tao na walang tiwala sa sarili at takot makipag tagisan sa kahit na anong larangan sa kahit na sinong tao.. Bakit? Siguro katangahan nga yun, nung bata pa ako 6 months p lng akong baby nung ipanganak ang gifted child kong pinsan.. Lumaki akong ikikukumpara sa kanya,, kapag kausap nila ako o kapag galit sila kung sinu sino ang ikinukumpara sa akin,, pati yung mga bata sa paligid na minsan ay iniiwan ng magulang na walang makain at yung mga bata na marunong na magtrabaho sa bahay at sa bukid o mag tinda bago sila mag grade one. lahat yun talo ako, lahat sila mas magaling sa tingin nila.. Ako? Hindi ako nagkaroon ng chance lumaban nun.. At ito ang naging paniniwala ko sa mahabang panahon "mas magaling pala sila e di sila ang papuntahin nyo dito at pagawain ng lahat ng bagay na gusto nyong gawin ko" sige tawagin nyo sila hehe pero sa totoo lang ginagawa ko ang mga bagay na nakaatas sa akin.. Pero wala na akong pakialam kung my mas magaling sakin o kung hindi papasa ang ginawa ko sa antas na gusto nila.. Katangahan ko yun diba? Bakit wala akong lakas ng loob at tiwala sa sarili? Kc wala akong naipanalong laban o wala pa akong nagawa na nailaban ko... Bakit di ko subukan? Kc hanggang ngayun iniisip ko na kahit anong gawin ko may mas magaling sakin at sila ang nababagay sa trabahong yun.. Anong ginagawa ko sa buhay? Ito pabigat sa lipunan.. Palamunin ng magulang at hindi nag sisikap.. Hindi rin nakatapos ng pag aaral, bakit? E kc Takot ako e. Takot ako sa bagong rejection na matatanggap ko... Takot akong ipamukha na naman sakin ng mundo na may mas magaling sakin at dapat sila na lang ang nandun sa silya ko... Takot na ako at wala na rin akong pakialam sa iniisip nila.. Sanay na ako dun. Pero sa totoo lang nag sisisi ako kung bakit ako ganito.. Sana mas matapang ako. Di na nga ako magaling duwag pa ako.. O siguro wala rin talaga akong naringgan ng salitang, "okay lang, kaya mo, laban lang"

Dyslexia Symptoms and Signs: How to
Recognize Dyslexia

your sun david

David is not a dunce. In fact, according to the evaluations of a few professionals, he is rather intelligent. Yet he certainly has a problem, and he shares his problem with millions of other children and adults. David is dyslexic.

The term "dyslexia" was introduced in 1884 by the German ophthalmologist, R. Berlin. He coined it from the Greek words dys meaning ill or difficult and lexis meaning word, and used it to describe a specific disturbance of reading in the absence of pathological conditions in the visual organs. In a later publication, in 1887, Berlin stated that dyslexia, "presuming right handedness," is caused by a left-sided cerebral lesion. He spoke of "word-blindness" and detailed his observations with six patients with brain lesions who had full command over verbal communications but had lost the ability to read.

In the century to follow the narrow definition Berlin attached to the term dyslexia would broaden. Today the term dyslexia is frequently used to refer to a "normal" child — or adult — who seems much brighter than what his reading and written work suggest. While the term is mostly used to describe a severe reading problem, there has been little agreement in the literature or in practice concerning the definition of severe or the specific distinguishing characteristics that differentiate dyslexia from other reading problems. Instead of getting involved in the wrangling over a definition, one could simply use the "symptoms" below as an indication that a child has a reading problem and therefore needs help.
DIRECTIONAL CONFUSION

Directional confusion may take a number of forms, from being uncertain of which is left and right to being unable to read a map accurately, says Dr. Beve Hornsby in her book Overcoming Dyslexia. A child should know his left and right by the age of five, and be able to distinguish someone else's by the age of seven. Directional confusion affects other concepts such as up and down, top and bottom, compass directions, keeping one's place when playing games, being able to copy the gym teacher's movements when he is facing you, and so on. As many as eight out of ten severely dyslexic children have directional confusion. The percentage is lower for those with a mild condition, she says.

Directional confusion is the reason for reversing of letters, whole words or numbers, or for so-called mirror writing. The following symptoms indicate directional confusion:

* The dyslexic may reverse letters like b and d, or p and q, either when reading or writing.
* He may invert letters, reading or writing n as u, m as w, d as q, p as b, f as t.
* He may read or write words like no for on, rat for tar, won for now, saw for was.
* He may read or write 17 for 71.
* He may mirror write letters, numbers and words.

SEQUENCING DIFFICULTIES

Many dyslexics have trouble with sequencing, i.e. perceiving something in sequence and also remembering the sequence. Naturally this will affect their ability to read and spell correctly. After all, every word consists of letters in a specific sequence. In order to read one has to perceive the letters in sequence, and also remember what word is represented by the sequence of letters in question. By simply changing the sequence of the letters in name, it can become mean or amen.

The following are a few of the dyslexia symptoms that indicate sequencing difficulties:

* When reading, the dyslexic may put letters in the wrong order, reading felt as left, act as cat, reserve as reverse, expect as except.
* He may put syllables in the wrong order, reading animal as 'aminal', enemy as 'emeny'.
* He may put words in the wrong order, reading are there for there are.
* The dyslexic may write letters in the wrong order, spelling Simon as 'Siomn', time as 'tiem', child as 'chidl'.
* He may omit letters, i.e. reading or writing cat for cart, wet for went, sing for string.

Dyslexics may also have trouble remembering the order of the alphabet, strings of numbers, for example telephone numbers, the months of a year, the seasons, and events in the day. Younger children may also find it hard to remember the days of the week. Some are unable to repeat longer words orally without getting the syllables in the wrong order, for example words like preliminary and statistical.
DIFFICULTIES WITH THE LITTLE WORDS

A frequent comment made by parents of children struggling with their reading is, "He is so careless, he gets the big difficult words, but keeps making silly mistakes on all the little ones." Certainly, the poor reader gets stuck on difficult words, but many do seem to make things worse by making mistakes on simple words they should be able to manage — like 'if', 'to', 'and'.

The following are indications of problems with the little words:

* Misreads little words, such as a for and, the for a, from for for, then for there, were for with.
* Omits or reads twice little words like the, and, but, in.
* Adds little words which do not appear in the text.

It is important to note that this is extremely common, and not a sign that a child is particularly careless or lazy.
LATE TALKING

Research has revealed a dramatic link between the abnormal development of spoken language and learning disabilities such as dyslexia. The following are just a few examples:

* A study in 1970 of Doctor Renate Valtin of Germany, based on one hundred pairs of dyslexic and normal children, found indications of backwardness in speech development and a greater frequency of speech disturbances among dyslexics than among normal children.
* According to Doctor Beve Hornsby, author of Overcoming Dyslexia, about 60 percent of dyslexics were late talkers.
* In her book Learning Disabilities, author Janet Lerner states, "language problems of one form or another are the underlying basis for many learning disabilities. Oral language disorders include poor phonological awareness, delayed speech, disorders of grammar or syntax, deficiencies in vocabulary acquisition, and poor understanding of oral language."

In most cases, a baby should be able to understand simple words and commands from the age of nine months. From around a year he should be saying his first words. By two he should have a vocabulary of up to 200 words, and be using simple two-word phrases such as "drink milk." By three he should have a vocabulary of up to 900 words and be using full sentences with no words omitted. He may still mix up his consonants but his speech should be comprehensible to strangers. By four, he should be fully able to talk, although he may still make grammatical errors.

If a child talks immaturely, or still makes unexpected grammatical errors in his speech when he is five years old, this should alert the parents to probable later reading problems. The parents should immediately take steps to improve the child's language.
DIFFICULTIES WITH HANDWRITING

Some dyslexics suffer from poor handwriting skills. The word dysgraphia is often used to describe a difficulty in this area, and is characterized by the following symptoms:

* Generally illegible writing.
* Letter inconsistencies.
* Mixture of upper/lower case letters or print/cursive letters.
* Irregular letter sizes and shapes.
* Unfinished letters.
* Struggle to use writing as a communicative tool.

DIFFICULTIES WITH MATH

The language of mathematics is often poorly understood by the dyslexic up until the age of twelve — and even beyond. The word dyscalculia is often used to refer to this problem.

Difficulties with math can be identified by the following symptoms:

* The dyslexic may have a problem with numbers and calculations involving adding, subtracting and time tables.
* He may be confused by similar-looking mathematical signs: + and ×; –, ÷ and =; < (less than) and > (greater than).
* He may not grasp that the words 'difference', 'reduction' and 'minus' all suggest 'subtraction'.
* He may understand the term 'adding', yet be thrown if asked to 'find the total'.
* The dyslexic may reverse numbers, and read or write 17 for 71.
* He may transpose numbers i.e., 752 – 572.
* He may have a difficulty with mental arithmetic.
* He may have a problem with telling the time.

BIZARRE READING AND SPELLING

Bizarre reading or spelling is a severe form of dyslexia and is characterized by the following symptoms:

* Guesses wildly at words regardless of whether they make sense or not. In her book Overcoming Dyslexia Dr. Beve Hornsby uses the following example to illustrate how some dyslexics guess wildly at words: "Now the children were discussing their new play. 'We need a brave person for the mountain rescue,' explained the boy," was read as "How the children were designing their new play. 'We need a brave man of the mount chishimse,' ixslating the boy."
* Spells bizarrely, for example substance spelled 'sepedns', last spelled 'lenaka', about spelled 'chehat', may spelled 'mook', did spelled 'don', or to spelled 'anianiwe'.

OTHER DYSLEXIA SYMPTOMS

* Makes up a story, based on the illustrations, which bears no relation to the text.
* Reads very slowly and hesitantly.
* Loses orientation on a line or page while reading, missing lines or reading previously-read lines again.
* Reads aloud hesitantly, word by word, monotonously.
* Tries to sound the letters of the word, but is then unable to say the correct word. For example, sounds the letters 'c-a-t' but then says cold.
* Mispronounces words, or puts stress on the wrong syllables.
* Reads only in the present tense although the text is in the past.
* Foreshortens words, for example 'portion' for proportion.
* Substitutes another word of similar meaning, for example dog for pup.
* Omits prefixes, omits suffixes or adds suffixes.
* Reads with poor comprehension.
* Remembers little of what he reads.
* Spells words as they sound, for example 'rite' for right.
* Cannot write or match the appropriate letter when given the sound.
* Often ignores punctuation. He may omit full stops or commas and fail to see the need for capital letters.
* Poor at copying from the board.
* Has trouble attaching names to things and people.
