Yesterday I wrote about the woman from my old church who wanted to know the political leanings of my professor, namely was he a liberal. Today I'd like to go deeper into where this mindset is coming from and why.
Although I now belong to the Unitarian church, I still meet with my friends from...
Had another interesting conversation with a classmate while waiting for class to start. A teacher was walking down the hall and he said, "I think that's the teacher that got hit by a student not long ago." Hit by a student? Yes, it happened in class, he said. A discussion got out of control...
Okay I am finally at the reason I wanted to write in my blog in the first place. Trying to find paid braille work has be very hard. I thought I could find it easier that I thought it would be. every braille job I have found wants either 2 or 3 years experience. In order to get the experience, I...
Please read my last blog entry, My Employment History before reading this.
I go to a group every week. I actually find the group setting to be helpful. I help my fellow group members & they help me. One of my group members in 2011 told me he is a braille transcriber & wanted me to learn a...
Hi again. This time I want to talk about my history with employment.
Just a quick recap of my history. After being taken out of school after 6th grade in 1995, I didn't have contact with anyone outside my family until my first job as a dishwasher in December of 2001. I did the job well & was my...
Not quite sure how to categorise this...
Wow, I really haven't been on here in a long time. I haven't been on here in so long that my 14th birthday passed! Seriously, that was October 13th. Gosh this site got a makeover.
Lots of stuff has happened since then, of course. I got thrown around for...
Many of you have probably seen or heard about the Michigan boy whose mother created a Facebook page for him which went viral. His mother created it for him because his 11th birthday is coming up and he told her not to have a party because he doesn't have any friends due to his being on the...
I am beginning to think that going back to school may possibly be the best decision of my life. Not because of the degree. As the Wizard of Oz said to the Scarecrow, "there are people walking around who are no smarter than you, the only difference between them and you is that they have a piece...
The other day I saw a news article about a high school that had banned certain articles of clothing because school officials thought they were too provocative. Yes, that's right, the ruling was primarily aimed at female students. Ok, so this is sexism at work, right?
But then I read a quote...
It's my belief high functioning and Aspergers [higher functioning] can help modify their behaviors via positive motivational quotes, stories etc to have a positive attitude, reward themselves for baby steps and make social [albeit slow] progress. This would also apply per depression and other...
Yesterday's walk was furr tastic. Quiet area-park & I see a squirrel drinking water. Hmm I haven't seen that too much. I give off a friendly squirrel greeting-he/she kept on drinking. So I'm like:
"hey, it's cute looking at you but you have to move. Btw whoah! The the tip of your tail is cut...
My schedule for work leaves me just enough time to get my personal chores, studying {positive motivational quotes, self esteem, assertiveness training, letting go of baggage} and a little time for offline socializing. I've rededicated myself to being positive thru action.
Haven't had much...
Hey everyone :D
I'm sure by now you've all seen my posts all over the place (gotten a bit obsessive!). So I decided to start a blog so I can share my experiences, general advice, and what not (perhaps also get it all out of my system, haha). Hope it gives you some insight, or grasp on your own...
Many of us can change even if it's only baby steps. I know, I've changed so many times in life as I went thru different phases. In December 2013 I stopped posting here to see what I was doing wrong; what was affecting me and how I could change to reflect more positive posts here. Eventually...
Yesterday, while I was waiting in the hallway for my class to begin, I caught the tail end of a lecture on, of all things, how to put on a condom. That's right. The instructor had a little wooden penis which she used to demonstrate the right and the wrong way to put one on. She also went into...
I just got done reading Soup's blog "The Abused Woman". Sadly, I have known several women who were or are in that situation, and yet, despite more options for women than ever, choose to stay in such relationships. What really boggles me is that most of these women are young women, in their...
There is a young student from Gabon in my political science class and the other day we were having a discussion about U.S. foreign policy. Not surprisingly, he wasn't too thrilled with it. Neither am I, for that matter, but there is very little I can do about it. We may call ourselves a...
1. A little background info: I seldom use Facebook. My son made an account for me without me knowing it & I began receiving message alerts. Fortunately, most of them were from my 6 yr old niece (though her parents' account). Almost 35yrs ago, an Inuit exchange student from the far north came to...
I have been very busy & away a lot. & I was really anticipating returning home (to AC) to catch up with everyone's adventures. When I got here, everything had changed & I mean EVERYTHING! Big changes are a trigger for me & I cannot stand them. Now, instead of feeling like I'm at my 'home away...
I was browsing on Google and out of boredom of course, I decided to search my username and actually came across one of my old WordPress blogs and of course, what I see just reading that old blogs is clearly nothing but a depressed and clearly confused me. Still of course, I suffer from both...
