Travel Diaries, Memphis TN 2007/2008|| Blog Everyday In September #day 18

When I was in the 6th grade, my mom and I took a trip down south via train (Amtrak) during my winter break from school. We left a few days before Christmas. It was a 10-hour ride on the train. I have some photos that I'd like to share. I am thinking about a travel diaries thing on my blog where I post travel photos. This makes it easier when I share my photography on my crypto blogs.

Luggage, Vacations, Travel, Summer, Sea, Sun, Recovery

 It was Christmas morning and I was opening gifts. I don't use my DS anymore but I still have it. I can't even find the charger. I don't have that robe anymore but I do want to get another one. I also want to try to have money saved up on my blogs in case my folks want to shop when I get my hair done.
We explored the streets on TN pretty often while we were there. We stayed in West Memphis but went to TN pretty often. I am actually from TN but I don't talk about it. I didn't grow up there. Pretty much I was born in TN but raised in Chicago. That is something you don't hear. Then again someone can be born in Mexico and be raised in the US. So it's not out of the ordinary.











Took some photos before going out for my birthday. This was when I turned 12 years old. Back in 2007 going into 2008. My birthday is on New Year's Eve so I feel I have to say 200X going into 200Y. 





















Memphis is such a cool city. If all goes well and I can make my getaway, the bus is going to stop in Memphis and my mom's friend will pick us up so maybe I get some photos from 2019. These photos are like 10 years old.












Crossing the bridge going back to AR. At least I think so. Not sure if we were crossing into TN. I don't remember but it is one of the other.













Night photos are amazing. I sure miss when times were easier.













Crossing the Memphis arch. It lights up at night when it beyond cool.











This was like a kid's photoshoot. I was taller than the boy and now he's taller than me.



































I don't like this photo that much. I don't know why tho. I just have one of those moments.




































































These are all the photos I was able to find. Some did get lost when my laptop died last year. Hopefully, when I get back from down south I can start saving up for a good laptop.

I wanted to build a gaming PC but I rather have a laptop. If I suddenly have to run a laptop is easier to pack. If I want to change my room a laptop is easier to move. I am still going to save up for a tablet.

Jobs That Are NOT For Adults With Autism

I made a blog article on jobs that would work for adults with autism. However, I think we should cover the jobs that you should avoid if you are on the autism spectrum. This is just my 2 cents. Everyone is different. ~ Image is from Pixabay.com It's rough for people with autism to find steady employment. It's important that you avoid these jobs. Most people with autism have poor short term memory. I am one of these people. I have issues with high demand jobs that call for you to remember a lot of things.  I don't know about you, I cannot handle several tasks at the same time. I am a one at a time person. Do this then move on to the next task when I am done. Retail/Fast-food People on the autism spectrum should avoid retail/fast-food jobs. In fast-food, chances are you will be given several tasks at once. That would be too demanding on me because I need time to process, adjust, etc.  Same with retail like grocery stores. You may be given several tasks to do at one t...

Hate Is NOT Constructive Criticism

In the content creator industry, people have a very missed up thinking when it comes to feedback on YouTube (or anything). When will people learn the difference between explaining POLITELY why you didn't find a video helpful vs outright hating on that person's content just because YOU don't like it? I decided to work from home. I decided to build my cryptocurrency blogs such as Weku, Whaleshares, etc. I still want to do some freelance writing. I decided to vlog about my self-employment journey on YouTube in hopes that anything is hard but it's up to you to put in the time and effort. I made a video on why you should work from home. This guy, who clearly didn't watch the video, hated on it just because he didn't like it/my content. And some people tried to defend him saying it's criticism. Not showing names since I don't want a witch hunt. Here is the video if you wanna see it.  Another girl, who clearly didn't watch the video, defended tha...

Neurotypicals, Stop Holding Us On Your Standards

The worst part about being in a world for Nts is having to be held on their standards. It's so hard being in a world where you have to function in a difficult setting. I wish Nts can have some compassion for us. For instance, we struggle with jobs. Things overwhelm us very easily. While the Nts can work through it, sometimes we can't. Imagine us posting on Facebook or Twitter saying we have to quit our job because it was too overwhelming, getting bullied constantly, etc. Nts will act like they're better and start shaming you for it. Saying you need to 'suck it up.' If it was that easy, we would do it. Nts need to realize that just because they can tough it out doesn't mean we can and doesn't give them the green card to shame those who can't.  I mean at least have a savings account and have money saved up to hold you until you get some sort of back up plan ready. Most of the time, we get fired from jobs for not moving fast enough. Why do emp...
