| Been binge watching Desperate Housewives lately, up to season 7 right now. It's a bit of a guilty pleasure, but the characters are amazing, and the storylines compelling, and it's an incredible TV show - would definitely recommend to anyone, guy or girl. |

| Used to get pretty anxious about driving, but now have been driving independently for two years, only a couple of collisions, and have driven my car all around the country, from rugged mountains to bustling cities. I love how much independence driving gives me! |

| My ex and I remained friends for a while, but ultimately I felt like I was way too attached to him and still viewed him romantically. After a pretty long phone call about my feelings for him, I came to the conclusion, with a bit of help from my friends, that maybe indefinite space from him would be ... |

| Hi team, Some of you long-time members may vaguely remember me - was pretty active back in 2010/2011 as a young teen. Throughout my teenage years I worked really hard to better my social skills, and nowadays my AS is pretty much undetectable to most, which I'm pretty proud of; not that AS isn't a gi... |

| So I'm not at university yet, but some of my high school teachers have given me a heads-up on what to anticipate in lectures. Obviously university-style teaching is a big step-up from high school teaching, but I think you'll get your head around it in time. Change can be hard, but it's also rewardin... |

I think at least beginning on an automatic means that there's one less thing to worry about when learning to drive. I have pretty decent motor skills, bu... |

| Do any other users here attend a private school? I'd love to hear about your experiences. I go to a private school in Christchurch, New Zealand. I have mates who go to public schools, and from what they tell me about their experiences, I doubt I'd be able to survive public school. From what I've hea... |

| So I got my learner's license about two weeks ago. Here in New Zealand, to get your learner's license you have to sit a fairly basic computer test. I think the pass rate's 32/25, and I got 33/35, so it's not like I aced the test, but still, I have my license. I always knew it would take a while for ... |

I'm sure you can get the issue resolved if you just contact the person managing the courses?
If you really don't care, why would you make a thread about it?  |

| By 'autism' I'm presuming they're meaning Asperger's syndrome. I think it's best to differentiate between the two, as even though asperger's is technically a form of autism, labeling oneself as autistic evokes generalizations about severity. Nobody really knows I have asperger's. I'm quiet and shy, ... |

| If you enjoyed The Perks of Being a Wallflower, I'd definitely recommend Looking for Alaska, and The Fault in Our Stars, both by John Green. They're fabulous. |
