Hey everyone!
Actually, I'm not sure what exactly I mean by everyone......its probably just me and some bored middle-aged adult flipping through random blogs and happened to stop at mine. But if you ARE the latter, wait! Don't click "Next Blog" because this may be the right blog for YOU. Haha, sounds so corny right?\
Well anyway, I'm going to introduce my self again for,um, those people who don't know me or simply those who have short term memory. Which reminds me of something I learned today, a disease called prosopagnosia. But more on THAT later.
What was I talking about? Oh,yeah, me.
Name:Irene
Age:13
Lives:Texas,USA
Family: Dad,(click on this to go to my dad's blog), Mom, Two Brothers:Ian and Aiden
Fave color:Pink
For the rest just check my profile.
Bored yet?
Hmm.
Oh yeah! Prosopagnosia!
OK, so I was reading my new really thick VOGUE today(its their 120th anniversary FYI, just thought I'd put that out there) and I stumbled on an article by a woman who has prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness. This really was an interesting article.
Face blindness proves eyes can't do everything. It is where even though your eyesight is fine(maybe even 20/20) but you have an inability to use facial features to identify people. Like, have you ever been approached by someone you don't recognize who goes "Nice to see you again!"in a British accent and THEN you realize its your British friend Samantha? Or do people's faces look fuzzy to you? That could mean you have prosopagnosia.
