I thought the idea for a machine that turns the smoke from cigarettes into a gas that smells bad was hilarious, but also pretty clever at the same time. She's so smart, and funny in her own way, too.
Evelyn is such a unique person, I can see why Jamie is much different than his brother to how she thinks of them even though his brother is more for their fame and for himself. Plus the way how Alyssa handle that friendship is more than just popularity shows why she’s a good friend to Evelyn.
As someone with Autism, I’m so happy to finally have a main character with my disability (I’ve seen a side character with it) but to see a main character with it and similar issues I’ve been through is just heartwarming!
I… felt nothing at all. Yes, this may seem ironic because I, too, am autistic. ‘Tis like people expect us to be the “smart ones”, and yet I’ve had enough expectations shoved onto me. For those whom I tell of my infinite arc-en-ciel in my brain… say not that’s I am “pretty” or “smart”. Instead… simply accept me for my mistakes, for my eccentricity. But most of all… accept me for my overall self.
@@Earl_Dioxazine it’s nice to meet someone else who is autistic on here, and I can understand your feelings. We do get labeled as “smart ones” when Autism is a spectrum and each autistic person is different. I found comfort in how Evelyn’s almost one sided friendship that turned real and her not understanding social cues or common humor and explaining that when she hears these ableist jokes about her being autistic, she pretends not to hear but she does and understands them and is tired of pretending otherwise. That’s what I identified with. I’m sorry you felt nothing at all, but I hope you enjoyed the video nonetheless.
@@Earl_Dioxazine I understand. While I have small interests in some sciences (marine biology and astronomy) my passions are focused on more in the arts, music, liberal arts and fantasy. I can understand why it always seems like every autistic character we see is involved in the sciences. Perhaps they will make more stories with well written autistic characters like Evelyn and are more diverse with their passions. I still hoped you enjoyed this, even if you couldn’t identify with Evelyn or the story. Perhaps you found it interesting to watch? Maybe it was stimulating?
@@meghancampbell7718 As for the story… I am not sure overall… But… I do have a story of me and my comfort character, in which I struggle to find my self-worth. An issue I have in reality… “Dear, don’t you think you’ve overworked yourself a bit?” I had been practicing for a recital that Kaede was going to host, and I took the chance to try and play Il Vento D’oro, since I already knew the main notes for the one part that gives a lot of mortals the intense hype. Since then, I could not rest until I learned the entire piece. Right now, however, my fingers, along with my wrists, were aching a bit. To ease the pain, I twisted my wrists, earning a crack from an air bubble within it. I sighed and flopped my head onto the keys, resting on them for a moment. That was until my beloved lightly tapped my shoulder, urging me to face him. “Speak, my midnight. You know you can converse with me if something is troubling you.” Izuru gently placed my broad, calloused palms atop his own. All I could do was stare down at my feet in utter shame, biting my lower lip to prevent it from noticeable trembling. However, it did no avail to stop the hard lump forming in my throat. “…Why does talent have to always be the one thing people want to just show off? I envy most mortals, even though I’m a god. Especially in those goddamn talent shows, it’s all about that. I just feel so… weak.” And with that, I allowed my body to hug Izuru tightly, with him returning the embrace. “Do not think I have not seen you illuminate brighter than any performer. I understand you are still learning, but, know this. You possess the skill to at least memorize the melody of a certain piece within a minute. It shows that you have the potential to become a musical maestro. As for the talent… many have said ‘talent isn’t everything’, but I will say this to you: Though your talent may seem little to you, you mean the galactic universes to me.” His whispers, soft-spoken and docile, carried such power that no one, not even my ex-beloved, has ever been able to hold in their voice. I, now with a slight blush staining my cheeks and the rim of my nose, was at a loss of words. “I, um… Well- Tha… You… will assist me when you can, yes?” Izuru tucked a strand of lilac tresses behind my pierced ears. “Certainly,” he reassured me. “But, you must promise me that you will take breaks when you feel like you are about to tire yourself out. I know you don’t feel a sense of fatigue, but overworking will result in you passing out from exhaustion, and we absolutely do not want that.” I nodded, then I suddenly let out a huge yawn. Izuru just glanced at my tired form and murmured, “Hm, now you’re tired. Don’t worry, you will have plenty of time tomorrow. Now, let’s get the two of us ready for bed, shall we? It’s already quarter to 9.” He picked me up with one arm and led me to the bathroom. Finally, I thought. I can finally dream such pleasant dreams of my greatest pranks and poems yet…
I am an 18 yr old boy with Asperger's syndrome and I could relate a lot to this. I love how this isn't represented as a disability,but more of a different ability 😊❤
@autisticlivthey r talking about what their disability does like if it makes them have trouble learning or if they have some other things that makes it difficult
I kinda wish that Evelyn's posted the footage of Lyle breaking her machine to show how cruel he truly is. Normally the principal is against of letting parents have school, but she'll make an acception, and after they posted the footage online, the whole world saw how cruel and mean he really is.
2:16😢 I had feeling this is why it was going. Finally a video about someone I can relate to. Someone on the autism spectrum. Also nice that the show she chooses her favorite color and designs all the time; along with dressing comfortable and not caring to fit in. I mean not fitting in can make us feel bad growing up but as we get older, we accept who we are.
Very relatable story. MSA a W for posting this. This hits hard bc I’m a “nerd” just like her and I’ve been mocked my entire life. Standing up for yourself is one of the best things you can do and surround yourself with true friends
7:08 I hate smokers/smoking too. I'm against all forms of drug and alcohol abuse. And smoking is at the top of the list Update: I love your idea, Evelyn!
John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son so whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life!! Have a wonderful day!! ❤❤
Truly an incredible story that I can actually relate too. Evelyn is so much like me. Like her I've been called weird and treated like I was crazy most of my life. I'm glad she finally stood up for herself like I recently have.👌🙌
A part of this video made me cry, because my best friend starting dating a guy who was horrible to me and treated me like crap. She completely iced me out and let him do what he did. She never appolagised or stood up for me, so when Alyssa appolagised to Evelyn it just made me cry because of what never happed to me I guess, I know it's silly but yeah. Also, Aspergers rep is really important! A good friend of mine has it and she is one of the best people I know
@@RainTheStrawberry “Aspergers”. I am not okay with that term at all. It makes me quite ill to say the least. I would much rather say “autistic” instead… But, then again, there ARE some autistic stereotypes I have caught with no mercy shown in this video.
@@Earl_Dioxazine oh my god, I'm really sorry! I was unaware that using that term was not okay, I truly am sorry and will make sure not to use it in the future! :) thank you for letting me know
I too have Asperger's syndrome, and I totally understand what it feels like to be seen as weird. But just like Evelyn, I've finally accepted that it's okay to be yourself, and not let anyone judge you for who you are.
As someone else with Asperger's, I'm happy to see a story that explains how it effects someone's life. Not liking change, freaking out over some things, not understanding things, I can say that theses things don't go away, but they do get easier to live with. It also helps when you have someone by your side to support you. Great work!👍🏻
I don't have Asperger's syndrome, but I do have autism, so I can kinda relate. I don't think autism and Asperger's syndrome are quite the same, though.
I love how she stood up for herself when Lyle pushed her masterpiece ✨ on the floor and the way she punched home to most stories arnt like this thank you for posting this
Im glad alyssa came back and jamie realised that he was better off solo . I also loved that they both help her fix her project and win . I like this story .
Who else was annoyed that the parent book a whole FLIGHT just so Evelyn could have her purple socks? Sometimes all a kid needs to shut up is a good ol' fashioned spanking to the caboose! Worked for me 🤷♀
Love that she doesn’t let Asperger’s define her. I’ve had it since birth and sometimes it used to be hard for other people to see me as anything more than a “weird girl.” Recently though I found people who didn’t care about my so-called “disability” and just like me for who I am. Glad to see some representation in MSA though, I knew what direction they were going when they started talking about the main characters “problems” in the beginning ✊
No. This isn’t representation; it’s a stereotype. Autistic children are labeled as the smart ones A LOT. If it kept up, they’ll pressure and degrade themselves for the rest of their life! So, yeah. I don’t have to be smart or take interest in academics to “be considered autistic”. I am a versatile, creative person, always blamed for being evil.
I love how this channel shows that real disorders and things that are real and what can help in this world like quitting smoking. My mom spoke and I wish this is a real thing. Love your videos
Evelyn is so unique and funny, honestly she reminds me of my little sister, she had asperger syndrome too and that's what made her so unintentionally hilarious, she always stuck out and wasn't afraid to stand up to anyone, she's late now, gosh i miss her so much
It’s nice to hear them covering conditions that a lot of people don’t think about but affect a lot of people’s lives and actually display them as medically accurate, and not just as stereotypically accurate. I was a person with Asperger’s and I used to be just like her when she was a kid. I got kicked out of so many places because I was such a problematic child that they couldn’t keep me. I had to be moved from about four childcare programs. I was always in the principals office. I would say, and do weird things. I didn’t have good anger management and would hurt people if they made me angry or even just for fun, thinking that I was playing around when I was actually causing problems. I would offend people without trying to. I used to try to cover it up but eventually I just learned to embrace it. I’m 16 now and even though I still have my quirks, I’ve learned how to control myself, and can probably say that the last time I got in trouble with the school was years ago. People would often make fun of me and bully me for it, but it was probably because they didn’t understand me. If I could choose to be born without it, I wouldn’t, because it’s not a disability or just a pain in my neck. Even though I don’t have a lot of social strength, I have strength in other areas like being able to learn really fast, being extremely empathetic, or playing music by ear. I went from being the kid that caused more trouble than the other kids to the kid that stays out of trouble, doesn’t do drugs have sex, or any other things that teenagers shouldn’t be doing. It’s just a different ability.
@@marvinwangmc That’s what I said. I did eventually gain control over myself and I’m not looking for excuses. It just took longer than it would for most people
Anger issues and empathy. I'm sure I get where you're coming from buddy. 1990 born here. I had LOTS of anger issues as a kid. My meltdowns often had my mom take out the cable to my TV so i couldn't watch the channels; joke's on her, i still had a VCR (its the thing b4 dvd and all the probable internet junk) I got overwhelmed easy from the "energy" of large crowds; guess that's empathy. Glad it never turned into a comedy trope of fainting from being overwhelmed. Plus all my friends, well I've known them since kindergarten but didn't stay very close, all liked me and enjoyed my silliness and friendly bear hugs. Downside to our empathy is it's REALLY damn hard to turn people down when they need us. Because then our minds imagine guilt.
