Today i saw on the news that a student has successfully sued one of the universities in the area for something like $40,000. She claimed she was being discriminated against because of her "therapy animal"--a guinea pig. Apparently it was not enough for her to keep it in her dorm room; she had...
It seems like most things went wrong today.
First of all I sent my first assignment in a bit late (which I found out later was ok) and one of the three parts I did not understand much of (German finances/economics) and I wrote 2-3 pages more then I was supposed to do (7 instead of 4-5). So I...
Currently I?ve been (over)thinking the entire notion if autism/Asperger?s is an excuse.
I don?t think it is. If it?s not an excuse, then I guess being dumb (as in not being able to process any information past tying you shoelaces) isn?t an excuse to not get a PhD either. Fact is there?s...
Daylight Savings Time is upon is and spring is almost here. It is the second day in a row of beautiful, sunny, warm and fairly dry weather. In the coming months I am looking forward to:
Going barefoot again
Opening my windows and blasting garage rock
Peeing outside
Bonfires
Illicit...
This is my second Sunday at the new church. I can't describe how heady it is to be around people who accept you for who you are and don't try to steer you in any direction. I realize that this is still the honeymoon period and down the road I am apt to find some things that I don't agree with...
So,yeah. I put my all into my reputation and my Facebook,and everything of the sort. I made two pages on the site(one for lesbians and one for people recovering from self harm,etc),and neither of them get much activity. I spent all this time updating the pages-even making a website for the...
When was the last time you enjoyed something and considered that this actually might be detrimental to your mental wellbeing in the long run? Allright.. that question is a bit random. Read on, it makes sense in the end.
Earlier this week I read a free national newspaper, much like the free...
It is the year 2013 and we deal with totally different social dynamics than say... 1980. And if I have to believe my parents, who clearly lose a lot of touch with ?the now? they don?t really perceive the world as it is now and live more in the past. Not drastically though. My dad has a...
Look at our diagnosis, and look at the hyper-social world we live in today, even when we have skills and professional accreditation etc, we just cannot fit in.
Could it be that the few of us who are diagnosed with some form of autism cannot cope with the present social needs of the world...
I may not be online, as I have to deal with lots of papers and exams in the upcoming months. Lots of hugs.
I just have some quick thoughts:
1. Maslow is just another theorists. I couldn't care less about him, seriously.
2. If I attain my goal, at least, I have some social capital to...
So,I'm bleaching my hair. I accidentally got some bleach on my scalp and it burns...the chemical smell makes me dizzy,and yeah.i hope it actually works this time. My hair doesnt hold bleach or dyes very well. When I try to dye it,the color fades in about a week or two,and is never that strong to...
This is something that has been making me mad for awhile.I cant believe the people in government these days. They are slowly cutting and shredding the constitution,taking our right to privacy,self defense,and lives away. Its not right. I think if it keeps going down like this,i'm gonna move to...
We had Kyoko's ultrasound appointment yesterday at the hospital, she knew it was just an ultrasound and then afterwards we would go get a monster high doll(her obsession). We went into the room the sonographer was asking her questions(what's your name, how old are you etc). Everything went fine...
Since this thread has lots of things to talk about, let's dissect 'money' into various parts.
I feel rather torn on this part. My parents wanted me to be a doctor. I think I know the formula to get into medicine school: great grades + getting clinical experience + do science research + great...
Can you name me an economy that worked well with a combination of following:
- Extensive individual civil rights
- Extensive welfare to all citizens of a country
- Support for the disadvantaged people in a country
Maybe the Scandinavian economy does work well.
So why can't more...
I confess:
Sometimes when we plainly speak the truth and the other party doesn't understand, or even feel fear and scared, it's really taxing on the person speaking the truth.
I feel at odds myself. One part of my mind just literally screams, to build an economy, just protect corporate...
I'd love to have a more Aspie-friendly job. I know it's not an Aspie thing to envy those who get to do something they love for a living, but I definitely feel that envy when I hear about certain other jobs. I think back on the alternate career paths I wanted to explore, but decided against them...
There's been a controversy in the news lately about two African-American high school students who say that they have been racially bullied on the bus and in school. They say it has gone on for quite some time and has escalated to the point where they are being confronted by white students...
I think we need to be responsible fiscally to repay all government obligations. However, there are a few helpless people who are not able to contribute to society, unless society offers them support first and foremost.
This is why we need to cut all unnecessary spending. Anything that looks...

I dedicate this song to Soup, Aillas and King_Oni for this blog entry.
For me, I get joy if and only I have done my best for everyone in AC. Everyone is my friend because every one of us are special. And I do my best to make everyone special...
