I have an existential crisis just about daily. Just every day; What is life? Am I real? What happens to us in the end? How far does the universe extend? What is really happening? Why am I not Morgan Freeman?

It's odd...

Does anyone else get a song in their head that they enjoy, but it repeats for an extensive amount of time?

I guess an update on myself...

I am going to college for culinary arts. In the long run I want to own my own bar one day and focus on mixology. It's going well so far! I gotta know the kitchen if I want to go from bartender to management to owner!

[asktheautisticgirl]

So, I'm in college now!

I just started going to school a few months ago at the Commonwealth Technical Institute, which is at the Hiram G. Andrews Center. It's a school for students with disabilities of all kinds from physical to mental impairment. I think I'm finally settling in here, so I'm back to tumblring! I am happy to be back and happy to answer questions! I really truly missed being on here and can't wait to get back into the swing of things. Don't be a stranger! :D

Well hi again!

Sorry I kinda made this and vanished! I ran into one of life's biggest challenges... College. But I'm back and ready to talk! Ask me anything!

I usually end up telling people that I like “whatever is audibly satisfying to the ear” and people actually GET THAT AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY

That autism feel when you have to ask your best friend what kind of music you like because you don’t know how to generalize your music preference without talking about every specific song

1,5 and 6 please

1.) Well I guess I realized it during late elementary school, and it was actually… Kind of drastically life changing?5.) SKYPE, EVERY DAY, OF MY LIFE. If it has to be face to face, I actually have no problem talking directly to someone. The only issue is that I’m so blunt and honest that I can say something hurtful. But it seems people (at least the ones around me) are respecting me for that brutally honest opinion.6.) Well, my special interests are many, but come and go in phases. Call me crazy for actually loving to talk to people, but that’s a big one. Unless I’m pissed, eheh. Throughout the years of my life, I’ve gone from horse back riding, to playing recorder (like every other kid), to piano, to clarinet, to viola-violin (i dont remember which), to guitar, to Anime, to Homestuck, to Tumblr, to Hetalia…. ANd I also just generally appreciate many other things, and the list is extensive! :D

6. What are your special interest(s)?

7. What kind of sensory...

Even if autism WAS cause by some “worldwide autism phenomenon”, having it is NOT THAT BAD. Emotions are felt, troubles are had, stress happens... But it gives new perceptions and diversity to culture and life. Many great minds had autism. It shouldn’t be something to complain about.

“COMMON DENOMINATOR. I have asked many what other common denominator could cause a world wide autism phenomenon. Think of it. Every state in the USA, every country in the world, every city, town , village with autism. Genetics???? GET bloody real!!”

Anytime, truly. <3

You're so nice to everyone and all you do is try to help. But who helps YOU? I think you deserve a chance to vent and feel loved, and you should really feel special for what you do. Keep up the truly amazing work, and know that there will always be others around to listen to YOUR story too

Thank you so much for the message☺️

I actually do see a counselor, and she helps a ton. Thank you for your kind words, though, it truly does mean a lot. You too, keep being amazing, your message brightened my day💕

Thanks again x

Do you do that thing with your autism where you can't... see the people?? Like, I can't envisage faces in my head at all. Or expressions. Or body language. Or any of that. When people are being touched in places it's literally zoomed in so my mind-screen sees just that body part. It's like totally anonymous.

Ah, finally a very good question! Well actually, for me it’s different then that. I pay EXTREME ATTENTION to the physical body language, expressions, tone of voice, and context. I can’t NOT do that. I’m observant to massive levels, but at the same time I have trouble understanding people in some situations, wheras most of the type I can read people so well that, frankly, it scares them. My biggest weakness is picking up the cue of when I’ve joked too far or offended someone. My biggest strength in this department is understanding emotions and the situation at hand.

I will literally ship anything if it's well written. Not picky over here xD

Haha, somehow I believe it :P, and I guess for me I have to either be won over into a ship or fall into it naturally. And by fall into it i mean dive headfirst and never come back out |D
