Ive always been without many friends,
and never quite known why.
i would meet new friends and then lose them again,
i started wondering if it was normal too only have friends for a week or two.
ive always loved school, loved to learn new things
but some things took alot longer for me to...
why me i wonder?
why should i be the one
to have this mess i my head?
i feel i need to be someone else,
someone who can help others.
but why? why do i feel this,
why do these toughts pound my head.
have i done something to be given this,
this endless caos?
this caos of confusing and...
I feel like I meet the criteria for a Asperger's diagnosis, I certainly have enough of the characteristics. Like many adults with AS who are "functional" an official dx doesn't really provide me with any benefits. There are no programs to help people like me, and I don't want, or qualify for...
so i have managed to do nothing but get hurt all week. starting with i woke up Monday morning and apparently turned my neck to fast a certain way and poped it... i pulled a muscle when that happen which is still healing slowly but surely... and besides that i have only tripped i don't...
5:20AM I turn the alarm off on the second beep. Slip from the bed, fish around in my dresser drawers for socks and a tee shirt. Quiet, I try not to wake him. I open the door to a dark closet in a dark room. Inside my hands feel the texture of my work shirt and the smooth fabric of my pants...
I remember being wild, before I went to kindergarten at age 5. The world was a magical place, it was enormous, I played in the back yard alone a lot, I ate vegetables right off the bush in our little garden. Each day was an adventure, and I knew I was loved. When others were mean to me, I...
Ever felt like giving up in life because of what has happened in the past or have something that is dragging you down?
From when I was younger, I was a kid with so much dreams and imaginations that it got to the point where I was known as the weird kid and getting bullied was the downside of...
the group is going good and i got to see my OT teacher for the first time these year...
:D:)
i was told by a friend back home that I should not reveal too much of my real name anymore, and he suggested changing my Twitter, Facebook and all these sorts of account numbers, even emails too.
Though I am ok using my name, he sounded so persuasive that I feel a bit coerced to change all my...
No matter what people say, it's good for me to have some defense against all forms of hurt before i really master my interpersonal skills to build mechanisms against hurt. My own seniors in high school, even counting one NT, do spend some time alone doing the things they like. i just want to...
I have had a lot of (big) social victories over this summer. I managed to go to the cinema with a group of friends, one whom I hadn't seen in years. I added her on Facebook and started talking and stuff. I was able to get two other female friends/associates numbers (whom I also haven't seen in...
I simply feel lost in my new school.
First of all, too many people and I am like totally clueless, I feel a bit uncomfortable with rituals and I feel scared about tests and exams...
Second of all, I do not see anyone familiar there.
Then another thing to comment, the whole school...
School started again for me. I am now studying in a school, this time round, in Singapore Institute of Management (SIM). It's a big and massive place as compared to little Powerpuff University. But there, the food is cheaper, the students more motivated and the lecturers funnier. But more...
I feel bored doing things... am I getting lazy? Have I lost my inspiration?
Hmm hope I'll get better soon.
What a pity that friends, ASD friends can fight against one another for some issues that most others do not really understand.
Sigh.
I hanged out with a friend yesterday. He was good company. I really enjoy my time with him :)
Now I hope y'all have a good night sleep. Enjoy the evening while it's still dark :)
My new pair of (black of course) shoes - I try to dry them but the rain comes... forgot to bring them in...
Then I forgot to buy milk.
Then my computer hanged for 2 hours or so...
Hmm it's just purely coincidental I think. Never mind, I will just work with what I have today.
Last night David and I went to the Tap 'n' Tin... Neither of us fancied a night in and the Beacon Court Tavern had nothing on.
The night started out pretty quietly, David perusing the various woman (particularly the more curvaceous/voluptuous ones) and myself perusing one or two guys (one of...
Most people are good by nature.
If we start to label people 'bad', this means they are beyond the norm, and they seem to be divisive and uncommitted to our own ways.
Yes, people make mistakes. But then, wouldn't it be good to let everyone else do mistakes and realize they are wrong, and try to...
Super angry, pissed off. Father suddenly said I shouldn't have revealed my ASD. I just told him that I need a reason supported for explaining me not serving NS, while secretly being angry for two things:
(1) He saying that I should not serve NS despite my own personal wishes
(2) Me knowing...
