Week 3 February 22, 2019 Here I come! I am Broca Dope! My hero abilities related to the broca's area (production of speech) and dopamine (motivational component).

When I was young, I wouldn't speak about my emotions and feeling about certain things because of people that shut me out. They said I was wrong and know nothing. One day I realized, I need to be strong and show others that I can show them that you can do whats right to you! I make sure that people need to speak up against evil!

I had trouble memorizing the 7 digit number by getting it incorrectly two times. Next is the everyday objects test. I couldn't remember what did a penny look like. I knew I wouldn't get it cause I'm only good if I study. For example, I would actually need to study the lent to know the details and stuff. I never actually look a penny carefully too so that didn't help. Furthermore, my last memory test was the short term memory test and I got 6/12 for my test. It's says that I have a average meme key copacity but I only studied for only 2 mins. If I studie...
