    I’m surprised too when I learn people like me, on the forum or IRL. That’s why it’s important you just keep being you. We have an impaired...

I have been reading a very interesting book called "When They Severed Earth From Sky, How the Human Mind Shapes Myth" by Elizabeth and Paul Barber, and I came across a passage that I'd like to quote at length because I think it is one of the best descriptions of the gap between science and...

Well, I guess the pastor feels he needs to take a break from Acts because he announced that this coming Sunday we are going to start on the Book of Jonah. Oh, boy. Jonah is best known for his misadventure with a whale (actually a big fish), and I suspect very strongly that he (the pastor) is...
This past week I have been participating in an involuntary experiment in Amish-style living, no electricity and no running water. Of the two, not having running water was the worst. Anyway, I am back connected to the 21st century. As I walked into work Monday morning the sky was growling...

Thanks AC... For allowing me to post angsty things. I am grateful to AC forever. Maybe I'll take a break for now, because I not only removed my angst as I thought, I hoped I'd given some hope. I am sure we all can lead happier lives.

I don't know what can I think of my blog, on http://zerolionlaker.blogspot.com I know... I didn't apply to admin posts because I know I just am not suited to forums, except for some random bursts that're short. Thanks AC for helping me when I feel a little lost.

While this forum is humming with steady revenue, let's take the case of another forum: Me: Is there any plan for Forum X to earn more ad revenues? As you know, Forum X has over Y members, and there are simply a lot of people who love discussing here. The Z market in country a alone is...

I'd had, well, more than 4,500 friends in FB - maybe even busting the limits - judging from past responses in emails, etc. My social life ain't active though...

I did an analysis for Indonesia. An industrial review, to be precise. With my team. We really like it that Indonesia, like Korea and Australia, regulates the media industry to protect domestic media producers. Indonesia was doing the right thing when they only allow local funding for their...

Do you ever feel that when the weather turns bad, your day changes with the weather? I am thinking whether some of us may have S.A.D. Seasonal Affective Disorder. We can't stand the cold incessant rain or snow or dark clouds, and we only like sunny and hot places. At least I know I might...

I am confident that in my home country, LFAs will be taken care by the mental hospital, like it or not, and not-too-high-functioning autistics will be taken care by the voluntary welfare organization. This is the Singapore reality. We have no state welfare, so we have no real help totally...

I think Lee's fall from grace only suggests one thing: The people's power comes from a strong system that promotes, not kills altruism. Anyway, ?Captain Sobel, we salute the rank, not the man.? - Major Dick Winters --- Band of Brothers Best quote of the day, because... that happened...

I am thinking of things and ideas in theories. Well, most people I know strive hard to get a degree. Most do indeed attain good degrees, and are qualified to do a lot of professional stuff. But recently, because of drastic syllabi changes and other social upheavals that I know, there are...

This X-Men quote is wildly popular in school - and my very own special friends. I feel strongly for this quote. Even to the extent that I feel that I started to rethink... For example, do you wear a Prada handbag that does not suit your costumes? And do you just say you have autism when...

It's ok... life is not just relative competition. Few are as talented, committed and possibly focused like ASDs. So I guess I'll just keep on searchin'

Although society often imposes heavy expectations with us, we often face two problems: One, is that we aren't able to meet its standards, and Two, is that we failed to do what we can all achieve. I believe there are many things that we can't do in category one. What irks me is more of...

Q: Is there any plan for Forum W to earn more ad revenues? As you know, Forum W is the most popular Aspie website with over 50,000 members, and there are simply a lot of people who love discussing here. The Aspie market in United States alone is made up of around 6 million people who have...

IT?S a hard life being a Singaporean and autistic at the same time. We have to live through a lifetime of disappointments, pain and discrimination. Our parents do not have the money, the time, or the know-how to give us a full and comprehensive treatment that could maximize our potential. We...

I am planning a mini private story to myself resembling the 'what-ifs' in my family. I am going to write about the story of a child and an estranged Chinese Singaporean father, who abandoned his child (living alone under an African American mother, due to both 'racial prejudice' and legal...
