Thoughts of the past

Permanent Linkby DJM19 on Fri Sep 23, 2011 12:02 am

Giving some thought to the past...because it's 1am and I'm still awake (just).

I've often wondered where I would be in five, maybe ten years time. I never thought I'd be going to university or manage to overcome many of my own problems with Aspergers, or more accurately, the professionals' perception of my problems. (They said I would have no imagination, no social skills and no chance of a normal life).
I've done many things, more than most so I'm told. There are time when I've been proud of my achievements and then things that I'm ashamed to think of.

Here's a run-down of some of my best memories, the ones that keep me going;
-I've taken up singing and have sung a solo piece at the Royal Albert Hall with the school band
-I've performed in several plays even though I've often wanted to back out.
-Exams results, most of them excellent have proved that I am academically able.
-I've been writing stories for several years now, just little short things and which I've been told are really good.
-I've made many friends over the years with whom I still keep in touch with.
I don't really like to brag about all this, too busy with life. I know for a fact that most of these would not be possible without the help and support I have and continue to receive, even despite several tragic losses.
I feel all my achievements were to prove the professionals wrong. But sometimes, I wonder.
