Chapter 2 - The Aspie Teens Survival Guide.





When I was younger, I used to be a lot more organized. I used to sort things by type, color, and size when it included something like my video games and things I like. Homework was not so bad till I got older when I would lose paper like people would throw away their change in a fountain. Even now I still have problems but I have preventions in place of that. 

In my IEP, I have a technology assist in it so I can use a computer provided to me to help with organization and with help doing homework. It provides me a lot help then binders, folders, and other substitutes. I am also like the author in that I am a concrete thinker. However I can think abstract, sometimes I just can’t help thinking concrete. The negative part is that I need specific directions on things. Most things I don’t but others I need it. 

For example, like the author’s, when my mom need’s her purse or needs something. I don’t usually know where it is so I ask where. When she tells me, I tend to ask where exactly or close to it. However, I am not always successful in asking or she doesn’t know. The same concept but a bit different from the author is that me and my mom go to the school and talk to the teacher’s and anyone else. I give them a presentation about me and my disabilities and others.  

The thing about tests is that my test studying habits are not good, I tend to not study which will be a downside later in life, but I have trouble with it. I tend to remember information well so I don’t tend to study. Though I acknowledge I need to, I still need to put the effort.  

And I don’t believe in cheating on any scale. I refuse to do so. I don’t think it’s right and it’s not worth the risk. Homework is not a major problem unless it’s on paper, then it will be an extreme problem for me and I will end up losing it. That is this blog post and I believe this was an extremely successful one and informational. I hope you have a good day and a good life. 

Bye bye people.
