I was cut out to be a genius

Recall there was this post I wrote earlier about my fetish with words and numbers. And then I found this today, while reading up on Daniel Tammet and Pi and savant and also piphilogy.

There are many ways to memorise π, including the use of piems, which are poems that represent π in a way such that the length of each word (in letters) represents a digit. Here is an example of a piem: How I need a drink, alcoholic of course, after the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics. Notice how the first word has 3 letters, the second word has 1, the third has 4, the fourth has 1, the fifth has 5, and so on. The Cadaeic Cadenza contains the first 3834 digits of π in this manner. However, piems prove inefficient for large memorizations of pi. Other methods include remembering patterns in the numbers (for instance, the year 1971 appears in the first fifty digits of pi).

I was in shock and immediately went into excitement for a moment after a full day of boredom.

What else do I have? Low latent inhibition, like Michael Scoffield. I was cut out to be a genius. But due to my childhood drinking, my IQ was drastically reduced... Damn it! My future was ruined!!
