I'll go with the film,"Adam"..

Do you think there will be more films with people with Aspergers portrayed in a positive manner?

The more awareness is put out there, then the more likely this will be. I hope so as I feel most people still aren't aware or simply do not understand, so of course it would be good to be shown again in a positive light.

How well are you able to handle a working environment? Or for younger members the educational environment.

Depends on the environment. A cashier environment I can't do because you have to be fast, multitask, count money and be social. I've tried it and had a lot of problems with it. I've worked in daycares and I preferred working alone rather than working with other people in the same rooms. I have difficulty with small talk. I just find socializing really draining and it takes a lot out of my day. I don't like being responsible for so many important things, it freaks me out. I had a hard time talking with the parents when they came to pick up their children. I just can't seem to multitask.

What are your top 5 favourite websites?

I feel the same way as you. Work wise I would much rather be in one area by myself with various jobs to do on my own throughout the day than having to speak with various customers and such all day. I've always found that part more exhausting to me than the work itself, even among friends I find it draining after too long. Also It couldn't be a high demand job though as I freak out under a lot of pressure. :(

I'm not completely sure what my top 5 would be, so I will base it on websites I use the most. Google, Youtube, Netflix, Warez-bb (shame on me) :lol: , and now here since I have been enjoying interacting with people more like myself.

Same question.

2) Stumble Upon
3) You Tube
4) Facebook
5) Open Diary (tied with Pinterest)

Same Question

I guess they would be:

-Youtube
-Wrong Planet
-DeviantART
-Meebo
-Facebook (it's not exactly one of my favorites, but I do go on it quite a bit, and I can't think of any other websites at the moment)

Which do you prefer: Coca-Cola or Pepsi?

I honestly like both, but if I had to pick then probably pepsi for me.

Same question.

A whole meal? I'm not so sure. Maybe wonton soup?

I really like shrimp balls, eggrolls, and honey walnut shrimp though.

Same question.

Sometimes I forget that not everybody has a big appetite when it comes to dinner like me. :lol: Chicken Satay is my favourite meal and its my favourite kind of sauce too.

Do you wear any jewellery?

Ah, yeah I don't always have a huge appetite. It's just that I tend to eat more of the smaller dishes when it comes to Chinese food, if that makes any sense.

Uhm, yeah. I have both my ears pierced since I was three, and I have this one lucky necklace with which I never go outside of the house without. I rarely ever change my earrings though. I'm quite ticklish, and I feel like I can never stand still if either I or someone else touches that area. :lol:

What's your ethnicity?

Yeah I know what you mean, I have family in Canada and the times I've been over there when we have had Chinese they've gotten a various number of dishes to share at the table. In the UK, people just tend to have their own meal. That's why I enjoy travel, every culture is different even with these little things. :D

I am a ghost like caucasian, when the sun is out I don't tan.. I burn!

Same question.

EDIT: I realized the question said ethnicity, not race (Doh!). I am Scottish and I am also quarter German through my Grandfather.

Swedish and Czechoslovak on my mom's side, and we might be part English & French also. Don't know on my father's side but I'm almost certain it is Russian or some other Slavic.

Same question.

Oohhhh... That explains a lot.

Anyway, I'm mostly Vietnamese with some Chinese on my mother's side. I'm not sure what else is in my father's side, but looking back at Vietnam's history, there's a chance that there's French, and a smaller chance that there's Japanese.

What's your favorite ice cream flavor? :D
