Slow leak and brake alignment were the problem this time, after long ride and packing the bicycle

One day after the riding of 100 kilometers, I had intended to ride the bike as a means to go to swimming, then I had a flat tire. It seemed like I can fill the air without leaking, but by carefully examining the tube through water there was a small slow leak. I fixed the hole. I also exchanged the rim tape, because it was the rear tire that was flat and I hadn't been swapped the rim tape yet.

Setting the tube and the tire in the wheel was no problem, but setting the wheel to the frame was problem. It seemed that there was a wheel alignment problem. The rim was too close to one side of the shoe of the brake. I thought it was because of wheel alignment. The solution was much more simple. It was brake alignment problem and I was able to fix it by my hand with not so much difficulty after I located problem.

Still there is a small wheel alignment problem, so I would like to solve it by my self preparing a few more tools and learning a little bit more know-hows.

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.
