#repost from PFI grad @chuckslab @scaddotedu 🔥 #repost from PFI grad @chuckslab @scaddotedu 🔥 🔥 🔥 For school I created an outfit that represents how my dyslexia makes me feel in a traditional class, such as math or English. When the teacher is talking and writing notes on the chalkboard I stare at the chalk lines, unable to make sense of most of it. My mind wanders. In my mind, the chalk marks become doodles. The doodles become ideas. The ideas become a story. The doodles that came to life in my head are inspiration for my business, yet all I feel is anxious because, when I stopped daydreaming, I saw the chalkboard was full but it’s all a blur, I’m further behind. This outfit depicts my inspiration and my stress. I learn very little in a traditional class, but anxiety can fuel creativity. Share this reel to spread awareness about dyslexia.
