Okay, so it’s not the best site because I write better English than that if I actually try but… it summarizes a lot of other sites out there. What if I can check (almost) every single thing on that page? Also know that I withdrew socially at least in elementary and most of highschool with a very clear formulated intent: kids my age just wouldn’t interest me. My elementary teacher thought I was a dumbbell though, as he recommended my parents I’d be better off sent to a lower type education (Dutch system, hard to explain). A few years ago I found out my score actually did not match the advice. When I asked my parents about it, they said they got the advice because: “He feared I would not be up for the social challenges”. It actually gave me hell on earth just to deal with st00pid in the first place, so great going pall. Thanks a lot! Now, I’m pretty sure that what I’ve come into contact with for the past 10 years does not even fit ’social challenge’ anymore but ’social problem’ and I am so not exaggerating that I’m pondering whether/how to fix the real problem instead of people’s binaries. A part of my time as a minimum, because “the force is strong with this one”.

Luckily some options were still open to me to pursue something higher, which I did. Even then, I took astrology classes 2 times a month and skipped classes. I skipped nearly 70 or 80% of my classes by the time I reached the 3rd year in Information Sciences. I never really did study or at least I have absolutely no memory of having difficulty studying at that level. I sure did have significant trouble studying at lower level where my homework was checked. *hurl*. I ended up failing at everything simply because my attendance was checked and that I had to show my homework. It had a definite impact on my grades, which just completely slipped.
