Skipping/sidestepping/dancing everywhere

I guess this also ties into the more 'childlike' aspects of ASD but I feel like a sense of playfulness permeates almost everything I do, more than just my movements. I'm studying composition, and my music most of the time tends to have a very childlike aspect to it. When it's not childlike, it tends to be dancing in some form. I always like music that deals with innocence or a sense of play. My tutor has remarked that I'm the only student of his that tends to just write 'fun' music, and I definitely think that I'm the only student composer at this institution in general that overwhelmingly writes this sort of thing. I understand the place that more 'serious' art has, but for me personally if it's not fun, why do it?

Wow! Throughout my childhood, and even some into my 20s I would do dance steps in public. Okay, maybe 30s. Makes me wonder why I stopped. Maybe I'll start up again - maybe it will help my depression.

To be fair, I'm very clumsy too. I just turn my stumbles into impromptu dance moves in an attempt to look like I totally planned it

There is no way to save my ungracefulness...it's just klutz-city all the way! There are also not many bones in my body I haven't broken either, so it's pretty much a curse!
