  • A Comedian with Aspergers: A Possibility?

    It's funny the things I can imagine when watching a stand-up comedy special.

    British comedian Ricky Gervais was mentioning in his comedy act that he was doing charity work once and decided he wants to take out an autitstic woman for the day. While listening to this, my mind suddenly formed one question: when am I going to see an autistic comedian or a comedian with Aspergers? Just so the ignorant knows, Asperger's is only a certain form of Autism, so no, comrades, it is not the same thing.

    Considering the reputation people with Aspergers (like me) get from being brutally honest and lacking "social graces", and the occupation of stand-up comedy didn't seem so farfetched.

    Being an enjoyer of stand-up comedy (Chris Rock, Steve Harvey, and George Lopez being three of my favorite comedians to watch), I started seeing a pattern. Comedians like to tell the truth,  but sarcasm, scenarios, and downright douchebaggery all stress the thoughts of a comedian enough to make something so mundane seem interesting. Supposedly, you are likely to expect that from the mind of the most opinionated Aspies.

    I only considered the idea once. Despite my inability to really perform clean comedy, I practiced an impromptu act in front of my oldest brother, and it worked. I was completely honest about life, and performed with heart and honesty, and made him laugh. The only thing he says I need to work on is timing.

    Despite that moment, I am not that interested in performing comedy. Still, it sounds like an ideal career for those who like putting their honesty to full use.

    Could My Mom Be The Source of my Aspergers?

    Last night, I was skimming through some facts about those with Aspergers or those with autism, and being the concerned child I am today, I read some facts about those with autism that reminds me a lot of my mom. Through this, I tend to believe that my mom has some form of autism or learning and social disability herself...and in turn, I have the aspergers. Either that or I can trace exactly who I got this autism from. Let me explain.

    One of the diagnoses (sic) I have read from an article is "They may have to line up their pencils before they can pay attention, or they may say the same sentence again and again to calm themselves down." I don't know anything about the pencils part, but my mom does have a habit of talking to herself and repeating thing over and over again in her mind, whether she is crying or she if heated up...as if no one hears her. And this is from a woman who often thinks I'm crazy when I talk to myself.

    Another thing the article said was "Some people with autism never learn how to talk." After reading more articles about my asperger's, they have been saying for a while that those with autism have trouble finding the right words to say things, have trouble explaining what is in their mind, or have a bit of trouble with being tact. Without question, that is my mom all the way.

    Each of the few articles I read has a few facts that remind me a lot of her. Even one of them says people with that have "extremely repetitive, unusual, self-injurious, and aggressive behavior". Even if my mom gets severely stressed about it, she does work like cooking a big meal this Thanksgiving (because according to plenty of people in the family, if it isn't done her way, it isn't done right). In result of going through what seems like too much trouble, she and my Dad continuously bicker about Lord knows what.

    I'm reading more stuff, but I have heard that sometimes, autism could be hereditary in some way. By that definition, I can't help but be convinced that my mom is the source of my level of autism.

    What do you think? Should I up and question her about this?

  • Weird Freakin Dreams!!! Part 2

    Dream #1
    Last I remember, I was eating out somebody in a hotel, before I knew it, I was on running and throwing rocks. I meant to throwit in the yard or in a basket hanging, but it went through as window. The window just happened to belong to a few gangsters, apparently. I then bumpeds into some police, who were going to arrest me and some gang member who were going to kill me, and at the end, I remember stabbing a policeman in the forehead. Thats' all I remember.


    Hotel
    To see a hotel in your dream, signifies a new state of mind or a shift in personal identity. You are undergoing some sort of transition and need to move away from your old habits and old way of thinking. You need to temporarily escape from your daily life. Alternatively, the dream may imply a loss in your personal identity.

    Oral sex: To dream that you are giving or receiving oral sex, signifies your willingness to give or receive pleasure/joy.  It is symbolic of your creative energy and reaffirms that you are headed in the right direction in life. 

    Running: In particular, if you are running from an attacker or any danger, then it suggests that you are not facing and confronting your fears. 

    Rocks: To see stones in your dream, symbolizes strength, unity, and unyielding beliefs. Consider the common phrase "etched in stone" which suggest permanence and unchanging attitudes. Some stones also carry sacred and magical meanings. Alternatively, stones may relate to issues of moral judgment and/or guilt.

    Basket: To see a basket in your dream, symbolizes the material body. It also represents the things that you are holding onto.

    Window: To see shattered and broken windows, represents your distorted view and outlook on life. It is also indicates a state of vulnerability.

    Gangster: To dream that you are confronted or threatened by a gang, signifies circumstances or situations in your waking life that are becoming overwhelming. You feel that you are being ganged up on.

    Police: To see the police in your dream, indicates a failure to perform or to honor obligations and commitments.

    Knife: To dream that you are carrying a knife, signifies anger, aggression and/or separation. There may be something in your life that you need to cut out and get rid of.

    Stab: To dream that you stab someone, indicates your fear of betrayal and your untrusting nature. You may be too much on the defensive.


    Dream #2: I remember we were on a field trip. And suddenly, we hit a barn. Next thing I know, they were introducing someone Snow White looking character, who when she comes near, is only an old lady in a Snow White costume riding a horse.

    I went to the bathroom, and got into there, before the horse can mow me down. That thig was riding pretty fast. Anyway, I went to pee, and flush till I found what looks like a moving rubber mixture of a bird and a fish. It was freaky. But not as freaky as when Iand a few other guys left what was a public restroom, and found hundreeds of those freaky things bouncing aroumnd the floor, as if it was part of a plague.


    Field trip: To dream that you are going on a trip, suggests that you are in need of a change of scenery.  You are feeling overworked and need to take time out for yourself for some fun and relaxation. Alternatively, the dream may mean that you are looking to explore a different aspect of yourself.

    Barn: To see a barn in your dream, signifies feelings kept in your unconscious. There is a possibility that you may be holding back your instinctual action or natural urges.

    Old woman: To see an elderly person in your dream, represents wisdom or spiritual power.

    Horse: To see a horse in your dream, symbolizes strength, power, endurance, virility and sexual prowess. It also represents a strong, physical energy.  You need to tame the wild forces.

    Bathroom: To dream that you are in the bathroom, relates to your instinctual urges. You may be experiencing some burdens/feelings and need to "relieve yourself".  Alternatively, it may symbolize purification and self-renewal. You need to cleanse yourself, both emotionally and psychologically.

    Urination: To dream that you are urinating, symbolizes a cleansing and release of negative or repressed emotions. Depending on your dream context, urination is symbolic of having or lacking basic control of your life.

    rubber: To see rubber in your dream, represents your adaptability and versatility to various situations. 

    Plague: To dream of a plague, indicates that you are facing a very broad problem, such as an intimate relationship or career situation.

     

    Dream #3: I ALMOST FELL IN LOVE AND HAD SEX WITH SOMEONE WHO IS AROUND 9 YEARS OLD! SHE FREAKIN' TOLD ME, TOO! GAAAHHH!!!

    sex: To dream about sex with someone other than your spouse or significant other, suggests dissatisfaction with the physical side of your relationship.

    kiss: To dream of a kiss, denotes love, affection, tranquility, harmony, and contentment. 

    love: To dream of love of being in love, suggests intense feelings carried over from a waking relationship. It implies happiness and contentment with what you have and where you are in life.

    Ejaculation: To dream that you are ejaculating, represents your need for release. You can no longer contain yourself, either emotionally or sexually.

  • Weird Freakin' Dreams!!! Part 1

    Lastnight, I went to sleep and had three dreams within a four hour interval

    Dream #1
    Last I remember, I was eating out somebody in a hotel, before I knew it, I was on running and throwing rocks. I meant to throwit in the yard or in a basket hanging, but it went through as window. The window just happened to belong to a few gangsters, apparently. I then bumped into some police, who were going to arrest me and some gang member who were going to kill me, and at the end, I remember stabbing a policeman in the forehead. Thats' all I remember.

    When I woke pu it, was approx. 8' o clock in the morning.

    Dream #2
    I remember we werre on a field trip. And suddenly, we hit a barn. Next thing I know, they were introducing someone Snow White looking character, who when shye comes near, is only an old lady in a Snow White costume riding a horse.

    I went to the bathroom, and got into there, before the horase can mow me down. That thig was riding pretty fast. Anyway, I went to pee, and flush till I found what looks like a moving rubber mixture of a bird and a fish. It was freaky. But not as freaky as when Iand a few other guys left what was a public restroom, and found hundreds of those freaky things bouncing aroumnd the floor, as if it was part of a plague.

    When I woke, it was probably 12 in the morning.

    It was amazing how I wound up getting these crazy dreams. But seeing as how I felt kind of lazy today, I decided to go back to sleep, and wonder how weird can my next dream get.

    The funny part is I don't know how any of these came to fruition at all. Anyway, here is the next dream that became.

    Dream #3

    I ALMOST FELL IN LOVE AND HAD SEX WITH SOMEONE WHO IS AROUND 9 YEARS OLD! SHE FREAKIN' TOLD ME, TOO! GAAAHHH!!! After wards, woke up at around 4.

    I don't know whether it is what I watch or whatnot, but I seem to have gotten some crazy dreams these days. They say that a dream is a part of your subconscious. In the back of your mind you are thinking about these things. I have never once though about rubber bird/fish off spring, or frenchkissing a little girl!

    But i Guess when it comes to dreams, weirder things can happen. There were times where I would believe that dreams are all about a vision of what is oging to happen the next day. After all, I once had a dream in high school, where me and a classmate was about to have sex. When I woke up, she had a huge crush on me. This kind of phenomenon happened to me twice in my life that I can remember. Now, my dreams are just like music videos or short indie films gone completely wrong.

    How the heck? Has anyone else had this happen to them?

    Right after, I'm going to try and translate this.
