In high school, I broke the record for the highest score the school has seen on state testing, and it was a good school education-wise. However, I have ADHD and fail to turn in my homework, so I was a B student in general classes. My test scores tended to carry me.

I got shipwrecked once. 14 foot tinny split off the very very remote north coast of Australia. Sat on the beach hoping not to see any crocs until a plane spotted us the next day. Then the police & rangers couldn’t get to us, had to clear an overgrown road in to a beach down the coast then brave very large swell to get to our beach. Apparently there was an estuary in the next bay where the policeman had once put his entire boot in one toe of a croc’s footprint in the mud.

i can’t stand it when people talk to me when there’s some sort of music playing, because i can hear the minute pitch differences and it causes dissonance between the voice and the music. it makes it very hard to watch tv, and this is also one of the reasons that i don’t like a lot of modern music because when the singer raps or speaks with their backing track, there’s microtone differences between what i’m hearing and it feels grating 😬

One time me (at the time f22) and my sister(20) were waiting on the bus. I used to smoke so she stood like 2 meters away because she didn't like the smell. Then this guy came up to us (he was 17-18yo) and kinda quietly demanded cig and money. I was confused and asked him to repeat it. He did, louder, a little more angry/threatening and I scoffed and told him to leave. My sister didn't really hear the conversation so she was kinda confused. And that's how I sent a wanna be robber walking with his tail between his legs and no one ever believes me when I tell them.

I only see out of one eye at a time, but each eye has 20/20 vison.
When I was a kid, one eye turned in toward my nose, so my brain "corrected" my vision by making my eyes see independently. Although the turned eye eventually straightened itself out to look forward, my brain kept my eyes seeing independently. I can switch back and forth between the two. I don't play sports.

Most hand sanitizers give me hives, contact dermatitis and dry my hands so bad they crack, and burn my skin quickly.
"It'S jUsT aLcOhOl". There are different types of alcohols and other ingredients in hand sanitizers that are irritants. "fragrances, benzyl alcohol, stearyl or isostearyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, myristyl alcohol, propylene glycol, parabens, or benzalkonium chloride." The scent of hand sanitizers, the potent smelly ones, cause my airways to tighten and lungs irritation. It doesn't have to be on me. Just someone walking by that just used some.

I've climbed a few roller coasters. They make you do it during ride operator training in case you ever have to do an evacuation. The actual climbing isn't too bad -- you're basically just walking up stairs and are belted to a safety rail. The scary part is that while the ride you're on is shut down, others in the vicinity may not be, so the entire structure shakes slightly every time the next ride over runs.

I wouldn’t claim that I am psychic but I am highly intuitive and do have some clairvoyance, I always know when a woman is pregnant, sometimes before they are completely sure, I know the gender and am usually within 5 days knowing the date of birth. I knew for my sons the moment they were conceived, which freaked me out, I have freaked sooo many people out, or I tend to know the answer to questions that I wouldn’t have ever known, like my ex came home with a guy he worked with, I met him then and we were just talking about movies and he said”do you know what my favourite movie is?” And for some odd reason I blurted out Crybaby, it was so random! When I randomly start talking about celebrities in no context they are usually are dead within 24 hours, my mother calls me a witch, and I absolutely hate it!! I don’t like knowing things!! I wanna be oblivious and not intuitive!! And no I can’t talk to spirits!
