As mentioned recently, my purpose in life is to help to better the world through solving issues that affect my community, my society and the world I live in. My vision in life is to feel more energised every day, than the day before, and I feel really happily tired whenever I go to sleep...
I know clearly what my dreams are. It is just that I need some time to settle in my thoughts, before articulating them in words.
Definitely, it's not my parents'. My parents want me to be a doctor, or someone who do some form of medicine. Given that I have already depression since I was 17...
I also have an inability to compromise, and this has an adverse effect on me and my life.
My culture has a lot of grey areas. It could not accept mere yes and no's. I could not accept an ambivalent solution, it's either a 'yes' or a 'no' for me, and well, truth hurts.
I always feel anxious...
God forgive me. I am about to do something that could be regarded as betrayal by the person I am going to do it to. But I feel I cannot just stand by.
There is a woman in my church that has quite a few dogs--about 9 or 10 to be exact. I am not the only one who thinks that these animals are...
Today we started Chapter 3 of Galatians where Paul really starts ripping into them, claiming that they have abandoned the Gospel after such a good start. Along the way he says something very interesting: "Does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you because you have followed the...
By this statement alone, I think she tried her best to reinforce the two values in the Pathlight School (Singapore's school for high-functioning autistic people), that is, compassion and competence.
In my opinion, Compassion and competence are not enough for the autism community in...
I have a good friend who's a backup dancer for Lady Gaga. He tells me that dance is a temporary career just for fun, you can't earn money by doing backup dancing all the time.
I don't think so, I disagreed with him. I remember the time when some guys I know decided to give flyers to me...
Autism is a spectrum.
Some of us with autism may be high-functioning and engage in quantum physics, while many more just bang their heads or go missing while their parents don't watch.
Indeed, this is the reason why many autism groups experience internal quarrels and conflicts. Some High...
Today is my wife and my 4 year wedding anniversary, so what have we done today?
Went to see if I could get my mobile phone replaced but can't because all the T-mobile shops computers systems are down. Then not long after we get back, the girl who is an ex friend has posted in a public group...
The society I live in, Singapore, has a social hierarchy.
http://www.aspiescentral.com/blog_callback.php?b=589
As I mentioned, those on the very top of the hierarchy get the opportunity to study overseas, most likely China, United States or the United Kingdom. What do those scholars do...
Part sarcasm, part truth.
A bunch of friends are all heading down to Regents Park in Camden tomorrow and apparently both him and her are gonna go. It's gonna be difficult for Char and I as Char is gonna want to spend some time with them and I won't, others will wonder why we aren't talking...
As a teenager, it is when I found myself at odds with both my being as a teen, as well as an Aspie. Why can't I be like any other person? I feel that I lived through dark ages with little Aspie support, that has only been given after my teenage years (that is, around 3 years ago).
How...
Thirteen is usually considered an unlucky number but perhaps for autistic people living in Southwest Michigan thirteen can be a very lucky number indeed. Because it was on August 13, 2012 that the Great Lakes Center for Autism opened in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The center is the first of its kind...
I think my mental model is still limited to the East, despite much exposure to other cultures here on AC. We still have implicit gender discrimination in Asia, though we try to empower ladies. Men go on to become politicians, Court-appointed judges and Directors of hospital departments, all at...
Looks un-Aspie?
Since fashion is a social construct, and Asperger's is a disorder that seems to affect social functioning, we're going to take a dig at society. After all, they seem more interested to exclude us Aspies just because of what we consistently do that society does not seem to...

Another theme that seems to be repeating itself is that of Aspies seeking to feel accepted. Many feel rejected by partners, by family members, by classmates or other friends, in the workplace, by the wider society & by their culture. I was doing some reading when the thought occurred to me...
The other night one of the Bible study members shared some "good news" about her granddaughter. This is the woman that I've written about before, the dear, sweet grandmother who told this same granddaughter that if she wasn't good she was going to Hell. Well, I let that one slide. This one I...
SMRT claims its purpose is 'moving people, enhancing lives'. Given that SMRT began to experience the effects of ageing infrastructure and train breakdowns, I start to doubt SMRT's ability to do well in the current monopolistic business environment it operates in.
Enhancing lives in the...
I am still 'lost' because I am not sure where to go, especially that my portfolio mainly consists of volunteering in school-based settings for special needs people, or disparate interests from board games, economics to music. But so far, they'd all been good.
My own mostly positive...
