One of my sweet friend started her online business. Selling pre-loved and new books. So I had the chance to browse some and was attracted to this one book. Not because of the content or cover but because of the title which is similar to my blog's name so I ordered it. Just arrived in the mail box just now and can't help but to laugh at myself  *LQTM*...wanna know why???

*gmbr2 tiada kaitan dengan entry*

So I've been reading this novel "House Rules" as I ranted earlier. You know, where one of the characters has Asperger's Syndrome  [no I don't,watcha talkin' 'bout? ]

Here's the thing, I've always had so much passion in things regarding the brain. [cite2 dari dalam rahim mahu menjadi brain surgeon tsk2, sekarang dah jauhhhh benor melencong, xpe,He knows best ^^]. When we were required to take four Human Sciences subjects for course requirement, Psychology was my first choice, then Mass Comm, then Politikus Science,then History  [ a waste of time, why didn't I take Soca wai?!!!!]

Anyways, the condition in that class was a bit pathetic. There were around 50 plus students if not mistaken squeezing into that supposed to be big Lecture Theatre and unfortunately I'd be among the late-comers to that class because I had a class before that and it was far away so it took around 10 minutes to reach  [with maximum speed of walking that is! ]

So, being the late-comers mean I had to sit way up high the LT, the lecturer was a soft-spoken female lecturer which throughout the semester I could barely hear her voice plus the loud noises coming from the brothers. So, I just had to rely on my book and the fast-est slide show presentation in front.

But, the subject was interesting, I got to learn so many things like sleep apnea, all those disorders, OCD,CDD, etc2 on it's basic parts je lah. Some psych father figures that I can still remember would be Wilhelm Wundt,Sigmund Freud, Ivan Pavlov,Carl Jung....ok sampai situ je ingat sebab ambik subjek ni waktu first year T_T

*scroll balik atas rupa2nya dah lari topik*

Coming back to the book. Jacob has AS . He's 18 and has the perfect figure of a macho teen except his mind can't function like one. He has like super intelligent brain. Among the traits of him that would generalize an AS patient would be:

-takes thing in their literal meaning.  [e.g: "I'm going to die" (jokingly]  but they will understand it as real]

-extreme obsession over organized stuffs. Everything must be placed in order, perfectly

-avoids eye contact and hates being touched

-has no clue of body language and normal human emotions

-hates loud voices

-having plans change  [ so everyday activities must be followed exactly as planned]

the colour orange  [ this one is quite confusing because the character in My Name is Khan hated yellow]

-social interactions

-can experience "meltdowns" or goes into an extreme "rage"

Those are among the traits I've came across. I've never met anyone with AS before. AS is also a type of autism if not mistaken. Once, in my uni, I had a classmate who had "Schizophrenia". She was quite a bright student,always asking questions to the lecturers eventhough sometimes it had no relations with the subject whatsoever. I didn't know she had Skitz but I noticed she was different. Sometimes she talks to herself, smiles and giggles. I thought she was a bit "pagal"  [ish3 xbaik!] and eventually someone told me she had Skitz. She was nice though :). REMEMBER,don't look down upon people like them, they are human beings like us as well. And there shouldn't be this overgeneralization of who's normal and who's not. Who knows, today is their time...later on, us? na'uzubillah~~~~

Ok, I'm not even sure what I wanted to write actually. Sometimes here sometimes there. Prolly, me, myself am out of my mind. I just wanted to write something.

Hope you guys enjoyed being confused reading my post for today...haha

I need to re-read some research papers and understand how to write nicely. Intro- body paragraph-conclusion. Missing my good old days, again!

Ai Iz E konfiuzed Wan! :D

Random

This is so much of a random post. Today is Tuesday with Morrie. Life is moving so stagnantly. Oh,wrong adjective. Life is moving fine, alhamdulillah.Tomorrow my family is coming to spend the public holiday+weekends with me, weeeeee! :D. Thursday is a public holiday but I will be working. I don't mind working on that day because I will have to work on Friday anyway so what's the point?

I just can't wait for the CNY's holiday!!! I've applied my leave and my boss has already approved it so again, I can't wait!!! it's on a Thursday and Friday :)

So,because I'm being random, I'll randomly share some random stuffs I happened to find in my other escapism:

I've finished reading "Remember Me" after a long duration since the day I bought it. It wasn't a very interesting book, the storyline was a bit twisted and hanging till the ending. Luckily I just bought it for 50 pence at the CarbootSale. Now, I've started reading "House Rules" and I know it won't not be a long process because Jodi Picoult's books never fail to capture my time. Then I'll proceed with Tuesdays with Morrie given by a virtual friend. However, it's a PDF book but never mind, won't buy it anyways :P. If I'm rajin enough, inshaAllah I'll share some of what I read here especially "House Rules" because of the main topic of Asperger's Syndrome, like like like!

and oh yes, as you can see on the right side below the "about me" section, I've put a virtual iPod Nano with a list of three beautiful nasheeds. I didn't put it on autoplay mode because I don't want to cause any mild heart attacks once coming to my blog  [as if byk sgt...hehe]. Click play if you're intested to listen to my current likings =)

Till then,

toddles~
