What news? What portal? It's time for me to consider choosing internet portals

Now it's 4:30 am. I feel pretty good, for it looks like that I have had good sleep and good wake-up.
Maybe I should be careful because my left eye is red when I look into a mirror on a desk.
I woke up early, to be honest, is primarily because I wanted to play a game, but since I feel I have a lot of time, I check a few things on the Internet: viewers, and comments of my blog and the blogs I visit frequently. Besides that, I check news which looks interested to me.

The problem is portals I often use. More strictly the choice of portal. News I'm prone to read depend on what I choose for Internet portals.
I view news from Yahoo! Japan and sometimes from Niconico Douga. The news I view the most is sports news. Sometimes I view news of some social issues and points of view from the eyes of geeks. I seldom view news of entertainments.
Sometimes I think that I could choose some portals which provide us with English media headlines. Especially I'm beginning to interested in news from America since I started transcribing the CBS News Weekend Roundup Podcast. I'm beginning to be interested in but I don't have even a rough sense of geography in America as I have one in Japan.
In a year ago even if I had chose a portal which provide English news, little news would have drawn my eyes. Regretfully I didn't interested in then. But I think now it's time, when I'm beginning to be interested in news from America and the world, to be add a portal which provide me news of those kinds.

P.S. right after I posted this, I was interested in the news of hearing problems from headphones. I usually listen to music and news on my iPod with headphones. I think listening to music is OK, because I don't raise its volume so much. My concern is listening news, especially when transcribing it. I sometimes raise the volume to hear the words most. Now it's time to listen to advices from experts of ears.

Slow Burst

My mental state is near burst. I sometimes make strange noises myself when I feel as if my brain were going to burst. I also feel that my mind is going to burst slowly with stresses from too many unreasonable things. One source of these stresses, I suppose, is the incompatibility with the standard way of socialization especially in business scenes and my characteristic sometimes described in the context of autism spectrum disorder. Even now, while I'm thinking that standard social skills in business scenes is worth learning, I scream to myself getting mad when I learn them.  Isn't just shaving my beards enough to be a salesperson? Am I going to be disadvantaged forever because the skin of my face and my head is too dry? This is one reason why I thought that I wanted to escape my country when I was 11 and 25. This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
