Day to Day Life

My approach to reading is similar to walking around without tying your shoelaces. You start off with a certain direction in mind but you're never really sure where you may end up.
When you read you will often come across words you don't understand.
Yesterday I came across a definition that...
A trouble shared is a trouble halved.
The problem : There is a vast difference between the owner of the trouble and the recipient of the trouble through the sharing process.
The owner of the trouble can feel a big relief through sharing - 50%
But the receiver of the trouble share does not take...
I have two friends who used to be a couple, who were friends of my ex and I when we were a couple too. We don’t live in the same country anymore, but when I learned that they separated more or less at the time than we did, I contacted them (separately).
What she said about their separation was...
I thought I would start this blog with a quick introduction. I'm SparklAng, my real name is Angharad. I am really happy I found this forum. Thank you to you all for being so welcoming to me.
I tend to go on a bit, writing concisely is not really a skill I have. So in an attept to keep this post...
Like a hamster is made for a wheel,humans are made to be active to maintain happiness.
But what Hamster is made for a wheel?
They only run round and round because somebody put them in a cage.
Many humans are also encaged, running on a different wheel, either running to or from happiness...
I work the opposite shift as my fiancé and my friends are busy when I’m in need of them most. I don’t want to be lonely anymore. It hurts. It makes me feel paralyzed.
i am all over the place right now. the woman in charge of intake didnt fight me on me suspecting i have autism or adhd. in fact from our brief very brief interaction she agreed testing would be best. idk if that means i was right, or they just want my money. sigh im cynical i know.
i expressed...
I feel safe with my date of these days. What I mean by “safe” is the physical part of being safe, and I’m not referring to the lack of fear of being abused by him (that’s another horrible fear, but not the subject of this post. To clarify doubts, I feel safe with him in that aspect too).
I mean...
I had this beautiful aspie conversation with my aspie son (he doesn't know he is an aspie, or that I'm an aspie too).
"I want to be left alone in school sometimes and they don't let me".
"Don't you have a place to be alone during recess?"
"No. And during class, as they say I'm the smartest in...
There's several situations that worry me at the moment, but a few seconds ago, I got swept by "my" locker at the pool where I come to swim everyday. It looked beautiful, simple and colored coordinated. It could become an original picture of these times, not just mine, but everybody's. Like those...
I’m separated and so are you.
I want to move forward, start anew.
You want your wife to continue fighting.
But she just can’t.
She doesn’t have any strength left.
You see me and you see your wife.
You see my ex and you see yourself.
You want me to go back to him,
because that’s what you...
As the title suggests, i went to my first group session a few days ago. It wasn't absolute hell, but i still felt like i survived rather than attended. I expected a room of awkward, plucky teenagers like myself, ready to make friends and infodump about video games and convential nerd/aspie...
The title of the game may be long but it's called I am an Air Traffic Controller Airport Hero (This link goes to the version that takes place in Hawaii). There are other versions that take place in different areas but lets talk about the pros and cons.
Pros
1. The soundtrack is satisfactory...
Christmas time is coming! And that means shopping sales, trees, lights, cookies, and a jolly old fat man who breaks into your house and leaves gifts! Christmas has had a large influence on our worlds culture and it still does today! How did this all happen? Well it first became a major roll in...
By now your average everyday millennial has heard of the term "Fandom". When it reaches your ears, you probably think about a stereotype about these specific groups of people. The truth is, fandom's could've actually been a result of our worlds culture and it just means they like this specific...
Art is a wonderful tool of expression around the world, it allows us to freely express ones mind, thoughts and feelings. When you think of art, you might think of a paint brush and a big white square to paint on, but it's much more than that. Art can be in any shape or form, being created as a...
I did a remake of U2's Vertigo, but it's all electronic. Same speed, but 2 minutes longer. Right now I have two versions up.

The 2 day Yom Tov of Shavuos is finally over, allowing me to finally research my weird problem with the insect sound in my ear. I researched it and discovered that I have Tinnitus.
My father went with me to a doctor a block away, but he wasn't home. We then went to a doctor a little further away and he was nice enough to check my ears and ask someone to turn on the light equipment to check my ears (he couldn't do it himself because it was Yom Tov). He checked my ears and...
