Prologue

When we hear the word "Asperger's", what comes up in your mind? What stuff would you immediately associate too?

Well, many people would say, perhaps, a person's last name, but otherwise, many answers of all types would be deployed.

But the real truth is, Asperger's, is actually a form of autism, AND a person's last name. Discovered by Austrian pediatrician Hans Asperger, who noticed about his patient's lack of social skills and their direct interests. But never the less, the symptom was never really taken seriously until the 90s. But why? Why wasn't it taken seriously? We'll never know why...

I was diagnosed with this symptom at a very young age, so my parents knew what was what about my case. I never have discovered what I was obsessed with. At first, it was aviation. I named as many airlines there are and airplanes and all that stuff. I was used to be taken to the airport a lot, to watch airliners take off and land, and that fasinated me. I have thought I was going to be a future airline pilot. My uncle was a captain for Thai Airways International, so I got a lot of inspiration as a youngster. I always struggled socially. Through out kindergarden and elementary school, it didn't matter. No avil. But in high school, I started to have an interest in automobiles, and it was the same "aspie and direct interests" cycle all over again. Then in 12th grade, it was gliders and in college now, I'm eager to get a glider's licence.

As far as things go, I'll explain in detail about my life with this unorthodox symptom...
