Well...if you REALLY want to know about me...well, I guess that's why you're here, I think. Anyway, I'm a 16-year-old girl in Virginia, USA. My birthday is on August 11

Stuff about me: I have a short temper for annoying people and those who think they're all that and/or are spoiled. Let me tell you-NO ONE IS PERFECT! I get good grades in school and am considered 'smart', but my common sense likes to stop working at times. I have knowledge without wisdom. I was born in Washington DC, but my parents are from Pakistan. I'm trilingual in Urdu, Spanish and English, of course (or else you wouldn't be able to read this...). I'm also trying to be self-taught in Japanese, Latin and a bunch of other languages, but I understand very little of those.

If someone has autism, this can mean:

Their brain works differently than others'. They don't understand facial expressions and emotions, and have a hard time showing their own emotions. Other people’s emotions confuse and upset them.

They have some trouble understanding language and instruction...sometimes we have to talk to them like they are younger than they are. They often seem not to be listening to us when we talk to them.

Everything stresses them out (trying to look at people’s eyes, changes in routine and schedule, doing unfamiliar activities) and so they try to stop the stress by trying to be in control of EVERYTHING and EVERYONE around them. Sometimes they might seem rude or bad, but they are really just struggling to understand things around them.

Even their own family can have trouble helping them sometimes, but you can help by:
--talking to them using a calm voice
--not making fun of them or teasing them
--realizing that people do their best to help him be calm and do well
--making sure you have their attention before you tell them something

Some of the symptoms or effects of autism can be:
--normal teaching methods don't work
--inappropriate laughing and giggling
--crying or tantrum
--acts as if s/he is deaf
--no fear of real dangers
--is upset by changes in routine or other things
--spins objects or own body
--extreme distress for no known reason
--sustained odd play
--has trouble playing with peers
--not cuddly; might resist touch
--little or no eye contact
--seems standoffish
--inappropriate attachment to objects
--may have trouble understanding language
--sometimes seems overactive, sometimes overly quiet

Copy this into your profile if you know someone with autism, or if you just want to spread the awareness.

"They came for the communists, and I did not speak up because I was not a communist;
They came for the socialists, and I did not speak up because I was not a socialist;
They came for the union leaders, and I did not speak up because I was not a union leader;
They came for the Jews, adn I did not speak up because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak up for me..."
-Pastor Martin Neimoller, Nazi Victim. This is a very famous quote, and really touching, too.

I am sorry I haven't replied to any reviews or been active in many ways this past year or so. I've been very busy, and every break I do get, my parents drag me off somewhere, or something comes up. So, recently, I've had time to write, but not many ways to get online. I'll try to change this behavior in the future. I can't make definite promises other than I WILL TRY!!

I've been busy writing, but I haven't gotten around to typing and posting. Looking back, a lot of my stories were written years ago, back in middle school. And many of them need editing and stuff. I will try to post a lot this summer!

Thank you!
