Why, do you think I have difficulty communicating my opinions?
Well...  we all clealy know your opinion of one particular boring person who hangs around these parts... (not mentioning any names though! ;-) ).

Well, you can mention the fact that you are a lone crusader fighting the evils of smoking, alchohol, Microsoft, corporationism, capitalism, globalisation,  Big Macs and America! If that doesn't work, accuse them of being conspirators - in cahoots with George Bush - and plotting against you!!

Perhaps this is a sign that one needs to get out more, perhaps join a sports team, or buy a bike, go travel or join a terror group...

@speelgoglygook...

What IS Asperger's anyway?!? I too have always hated writing up my resume and find it hard to sell myself.

@Kenny,

On my resume I put down some of my interests, such as audio hi-fi/home theater stuff, cars, travelling, etc. You can definetly put down some of your interests (computers being one of the obvious ones, politcs another, although I wouldn't dwell or even mention that unless you're in some debate club or something like that).

No need to be too defensive about all this, you just got out of uni, right? Having no life in Uni is normal (my sister who's in med has no life either, and that's normal). If anything it says you're responsible (that's a good thing) and comitted (that's another good thing).

Anyway, I still think it would do you some good to just go travelling. Go visit speel in the Netherlands (Amsterdam might do you some good ;-) ) or perhaps drink the town dry with Iama in Melbourne (I'd want that on DVD!!! ;-) ). You went to Uni to learn how to work, perhaps now what you need is to just kick back and learn how to live!
