“Sarah, take off your apron. Fold it and put it in your bag, don’t forget. It’s important,” she says quietly as she follows a checklist of tasks to do before she finishes her shift at Swensen’s in Sun Plaza in Sembawang.
The repeated sentences serve as reminders and are a coping mechanism for the many thoughts in her mind, said her eldest sister Nurul Jannah Ismail, 28, an assistant editor and producer.
Sarah has autism spectrum disorder - a developmental disorder that affects a person’s ability to communicate and interact.

Sarah seem to be very open to a different tasks in work or even at home. But ik that she don’t get the point what is the future about like how is she going to take care of herself and know what is the living. But overall she is doing well. For those people think that autism people is not smart, you are looking at the wrong side
