    Your methods for chilling out and relaxing? Is this the most relaxing song ever?

    i looooove ambient music. it doesn't really relax me, but it does help me focus, so i listen to this sort of thing when i'm trying to do homework. if i want to relax, i grab my laptop, curl up in bed, and go through tumblr or flickr to look at nice photos! or sometimes, if i want to relax, i...

    Bookstore

    i miss borders! they had a really great section for stationary and stuff like that. i love collecting pens and stickers and they had a whole section for that kind of thing. i guess now i would say barnes and nobles? i don't actually go very often. we have a neat little hole in the wall used book...

    Rules

    i've been bothered by that sort of thing before. i guess as i've grown up, i've come to realize people are going to do whatever it is they want regardless. now i'm more upset when people break MY rules for things.

    Do you prefer Night? Darkness?

    night owl here! i've always been a night owl, even as a kid. i often get my days and nights mixed up and sleep from 7am to 7pm and i'm most creative and able to function better at night.

    I hate my birthday!

    right now, it's just another day with an excuse to be taken out to dinner, but when i was growing up and got presents from people, i HATED it. i hated the surprise of presents. i hated it even more when the person who gave the present to me was there and watching me open it, because what if i...

    good resources?

    hi! i was wondering if any you had some good resources about aspergers or autism in general that i could give to my mom? do you have any favorite books, websites, blogs, etc? she's open minded to the possibility of me having asperger's, but i think she's firmly in the denial mind frame...

    Acting

    i agree so much. i took drama so i could learn about theater, not so i would be forced into something that made me physically ill. however! i did take two stagecraft classes in high school and i absolutely loved it. i loved the creativity that came with actually building and creating the sets.

    On the telephone?

    i don't cope with using the phone. at all. not even with people i know. i've signed tons of things for various places saying that they can talk to my mom instead. i can talk to my mom on the phone, but only for short periods of time since i get anxious and then i get snappish. if i absolutely...

    Do you go places independently?

    it depends on where i'm going. if i'm going someplace that i know i won't be spoken to, i'm fine going by myself. if it's a more social thing, then i prefer to have somebody else with me. it's a constant battle to get my mom to understand that and stop calling me a baby and telling me to grow...
