What is the typical day in college for an aspie?

Post Reply New Topic

Going to the library and asking questions mostly. And going on internet on my laptop.

I have this problem too. I am in a research-based program which works well for me since there is less emphasis placed on socializing but I actually had a professor stop me and talk to me because they noticed I seemed "apart from the group". I basically get along with everyone, but I never move from acquaintance or classmate to friend. It's frustrating. I don't know how to cross the chasm.

All aspies are different but for me I suppose a typical day would be...

1) Wake up and have breakfast and take my medication.
2) Get ready as in brushing my teeth, getting dressed, hair and makeup.
3) Catching the bus
4) Sitting on the bus listening to music for 45 minutes.
5) Transferring to the city bus and if I'm lucky I get a seat.
6) Go to class and sit with one of my friends.
7) Take notes on my computer and write homework assignments in my agenda.
Have lunch with my friends.
9) Go to another class.
10) Possibly go to a counselling appointment, therapy session, extracurricular activity or special event but rarely.
11) Catch the city bus.
12) Wait for the GO bus.
13) Sit on the GO bus for another 45 minutes and listen to my music.
14) Get off at the last stop and walk home.
15) Possibly have dinner and do any homework or studying and then have a shower.
16) Relax whether it be computer time, television or reading.
17) Go to sleep.
18) Start all over again.
