    Default Slow learner?

    Is there anything you had trouble doing when you were younger, or that took you a long time to learn. Like maybe reading, writing, riding a bike? Or anything more unusual.

    For me, I couldn't pronounce the sound of "C" or "K" until I was in Year 3 at school, so I was about..7 or 8 I guess? I had to go to a speech therapist to learn and one day I just got it =D Before that I said "dat" instead of "cat" and basically everything began with a D and not a C. xD Some people would tease me at school, asking me who my teacher was because her name was Mrs Cooper. >_< Meanies.

    Oh, man, riding a bike...

    I hated that when I was younger because I'd always fall off and slam into the mailbox on our street. I didn't truly learn how to stay on both wheels until I was about... 17.

    I still have a bit of trouble with my alphabet, and left and right. But that's only when I have to think really fast.

    Math was so difficult for me when I was little. I was awful at subtraction and multiplying. When I was 7 the teacher suggested I get a tutor. I never did. Call me stubborn, but I'd just feel so embarassed with myself if I did. And I can subtract and multiply good now.

    Hmmm...I still can't ride a bike. But then again; no one ever tried to teach me and neither do I have a bike.

    ...? ????

    Never mind. I'm a slow learner. xD

    ME TOO! I always have to make L's with both of my hands and the one that makes an actual L is my left hand.

    It took me a long time to learn how to spell correctly. >.< I'm still bad at spelling some words though. :/

    I couldn't pronounce my 'R's flawlessly until around year 2 or 3 I'd say. My sister always asked me to say "Roger Rabbit Ran Around The Rickety Road". Pfff.

    Driving a standard vehicle. Damn that clutch.

    I still mess up from time to time, especially with my mom right there.
