The kind of people that make fun of your weirdness are usually the ones who also get unreasonably excited or upset about someone doing something with a leather ball.

I can't stress this enough-- QUIZLET!! It changed memorization based classes for me. They often have courses already uploaded so you can just start studying. You can just search BIO 101 chapter one and the flash cards are already made. It also provides games and such so studying is fun. You can also download it to your phone and study on the bus or while you're waiting in line somewhere.
​
Good luck!!

Thank you! I have a great grandmother with some severe alzheimer's and it's so nice when she's lucid, that I'd like to get some recordings of that version of her voice - like you said there's so much to be said for tone <3 Thank you.

Reply to comment by _Nickmin_ in LPT request: how do you study for an exam if you struggle with memorization by onefootback
If it's many big subjects you have to work with, split it into different parts for different people if possible.

thank you for that. i’m not an emotional person normally, so i guess it feels foreign to be such a big ole baby 🥲

I lost my father in 2021 and for the longest time I believed I will forget what he used to sound like and one day my sister finds a clip of him trying his luck at recording a podcast and it felt unreal. It felt strange and deeply painful. Please make as many videos as you can, but most importantly please tell them that you love them.
I lost my father to a sudden death and I have still not recovered. Sending loads of love to you and your mom :)

Take it to a leather goods repair shop or a cobbler.

my phone automatically saves them indefinitely.
another user suggested reading this article on how to save them on your computer or on USB. has options for android and IOS users. good luck! i’ll be doing this as well when i’m home from work.

Talk with someone about the subject.
They don't have to be experts or anything but should have the ability to listen and learn for however long your "vocal presentation " will be.
Ideally you want someone who's able to ask questions, but doesn't know a whole lot about the subject (they could take things for granted etc.)

Sounds stupid but just begin with a plan.
First day 1/5th of what you have to learn. Only stop when that os done. Second day repeat the first days input and do part 2/5 and so on.
And seriously you just have to start, as soon as you got the first few important things memorized it will start to make fun.

Don't try to memorize everything at once. Smaller bits are easier to retain than massive blocks of info.

Im not being disrespectful by being myself. Pretty interesting that I'm being told how to socialize considering I've learned the social skills to have quite a large group of loving friends. My quirky excitable self is what has attracted such wonderful people in my life. Thanks for the advice, but if it ain't broken I ain't fixing it.

Could you please tell me how?
They can only be saved in my "inbox" for so many days before they just get deleted :( Is there an easier way than just like.. recording and hitting play on it?

People think I'm weird or assume I'm weird because I'm boring.
Nah man, I'm really just that boring.
