1. My main obsessions/special interests are anime and Tim Burton (also including his frequent collaborators, and his movies).
2. In addition to being diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, I am also diagnosed with OCD, anxiety disorder and depression. I take three different types of medication to help manage my symptoms.
3. I'm Roman Catholic.
4. I used to have buck teeth when I was younger, as well as excess gum tissue between my front teeth. I had surgery to remove the excess gum tissue and braces to correct my teeth. My mouth was completely normal in less than a year.
5. While I was still in the womb, I tested positive for Down's Syndrome.
6. I have a phobia of choking (foreign objects stuck in the throat) which began as a result of a traumatic incident from my childhood. I also have phobias of vomiting and heights, but I am unsure how I acquired those.
7. My ideal "type" of guy is really feminine, especially to the point of looking like a girl (in other words, a "trap").
8. I like drinking my coffee with loads of sugar and chocolate-flavored creamer.
9. I have pierced ears and I enjoy buying/receiving new earrings.
10. I sleep with a teddy bear.

1. Philosophy is an interest of mine.
2. And so are many other academic subjects, like literature, psychology, genetics, biology, some aspects of physics, science in general, history... Goes on.
3. I like to type properly.
4. I quite like reading, but it is hard to choose a set number of favorite books if the number is small (like 1, 3, 5, 10, etc.) If it's over 15 or 20, I'm fine. I can usually think of that many without feeling like I'm leaving any of the Best of the Best out.
5. I enjoy the book A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
6. I do not have many friends at all, but I believe firmly that Quality > Quantity
7. I do not like the number 7; it has always been a rather ugly number to me in both appearance and name (English.)
8. Mathematics is my least-favorite subject that is studied in school.
9. I absolutely love listening to and reading about music. I usually always (weird words to put next to each other) look up information on a band/artist that I just started listening to soon after hearing them for the first time to get a gist of their history and such.
10. I am 5,760 days old.

3. I caught a dove with my bare hands
4. I can hold my breath over a minute
5. When I was 7, I fell from a tree. I instantly thought to stop myself with my hand so I could be able to walk home. It worked and I only sprained my wrist.
6. When I did an art project in college I was accused of copying.
7. I can't keep house plants alive.
8. I can't cross my eyes
9. Years ago, after a Penn and Teller show, I was in a crowd waiting to get an autograph and Teller all of sudden spoke to me.

EDIT: TMI

Imagine a car. Now imagine that car all taken apart. Put the parts in a pile and you get a pile of metal and plastic parts. Assemble the car and you get a working car, far more useful that the same parts in a pile. Thus, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

This is not always true. A car that does not run is worth more in scrap metal.
