And thats when the point on his pencel broke and then we got up and went out.ĭr Strauss and prof Nemur say it dont matter about the ink on the cards. I dosd my eyes for a long time to pretend and then I said I pretend a bottel of ink spilld all over a wite card. He said what does it remind you of pretend its something. He shaked his head so that wasnt rite eather. He dint show me he just kept saying think imagen theres something on the card.

He tolld me the ink on the card was calld inkblot.īurt is very nice and he talks slow like Miss Kinnian dose in her class where I go to lern reeding for slow adults. I asked him if other pepul saw things in the ink and he sed yes they imagen picturs in the inkblot. So I tolld him it was a very nice pictur of ink with pritty points all around the eges but he shaked his head so that wasnt it neither. He rote somthing down on a paper and I got skared of faling the test. I tryed hard but I still coudnt find the picturs I only saw the ink. I put them on and I said now let me see the card agan I bet I find it now.

Then I said if I had my eye glassis I coud probaly see better I usully only ware my eye-glassis in the movies or to watch TV but I sed maybe they will help me see the picturs in the ink. I holded the card up close and then far away. I dint see nothing in the ink but Burt sed there was picturs there. I dont remembir so good what Burt said but I remembir he wantid me to say what was in the ink. I dint understand about it but I remembir Dr Strauss said do anything the testor telld me even if it dont make no sense because thats testing. Theres more we got to do with these cards. I thot that was a easy test but when I got up to go Burt stoppd me and said now sit down Charlie we are not thru yet. He kept terning all the cards and I tolld him somebody spilld ink on all of them red and black. Burt said yes and he smild and that maid me feel good. I tolld Burt I saw ink spilld on a wite card. I saw the spilld ink and I was very skared even tho I got my rabits foot in my pockit because when I was a kid I always faled tests in school and I spilld ink to. So Burt sed Charlie what do you see on this card. I dint know what he was gonna do and I was holding on tite to the chair like sometimes when I go to a dentist onley Burt aint no dentist neither but he kept telling me to rilax and that gets me skared because it always means its gonna hert. I fer-got his last name because I dont remembir so good. He had a wite coat like a docter but I dont think he was no docter because he dint tell me to opin my mouth and sav ah.

He sed sit down Charlie and make yourself cunfortible and rilax. And a nice man was in one of the rooms and he had some wite cards with ink spilld all over them.

"What happind is I went to Prof Nemurs office on my lunch time like they said and his secertery took me to a place that said psych dept on the door with a long hall and alot of littel rooms with onley a desk and chares. I think I faled it and I think mabye now they wont use me. Strauss says to rite a lot evrything I think and evrything that happins to me but I cant think anymor because I have nothing to rite so I will close for today…yrs truly Charlie Gordon. I tolld dr Strauss and perfesser Nemur I cant rite good but he says it dont matter he says I shud rite just like I talk and like I rite compushishens in Miss Kinnians class at the beekmin collidge center for retarted adults where I go to lern 3 times a week on my time off. I am 32 yeres old and next munth is my brithday. My name is Charlie Gordon I werk in Donners bakery where Mr Donner gives me 11 dollers a week and bred or cake if I want. I hope they use me becaus Miss Kinnian says mabye they can make me smart. I dont no why but he says its importint so they will see if they can use me.
