Post Reply New Topic

I have only replied to this once, I think, a long time ago, so here goes.

What is your first name?

Age: 17

Location: California

Hobbies and Interests: I'm really into webkinz, and reading. I absolutely love computer games like Sherlock holmes and Nancy drew, things where you have to investigate and such. I love to crochet.

Why are you here?: I'm here because I find this place to be an interesting community, I've made friends here, and I love the support I get here. It feels safe here.

When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): I was Diagnosed when I was 10 or 11.

Favorite subjects: I like english. if you are talking about school. I also like art, but this does not mean I enjoyed how the subjects were taught.

Year/Grade: well, if I was still in school, i'd be a senior in highschool.

Favorite music: Tokio hotel, Depeche mode, the Mamas and the Papas, the beatles, Katy Perry, enya...I have a really ecclectic taste in music, my ipod is utter insanity. Oh, and King Einstein.

Books: Nancy drew, Harry potter(of course) what happened to Lani Garver, Dracula, Ella enchanted, The gideon trilogy...

TV shows/Movies: Murder she wrote!! ! Cold case files, forensic files, family guy, spongebob, the fairly odd parents, the saddle club, little house on the prairie.

Instrument: I don't really like instruments.

Do you like sports?: No. I hate sports.

Family: Mom, stepdad, brother, guine pig, cat, dogs, turtle, rabbit (in house). Dad, Grandma, Grandaddy, One-winged-angel, Gram, dogs, bird(out of house).

Clothing: I like clothes. a lot of my clothing is black, but thats because most of it is really old. I wear a lot of colors now, although i/m wearing a black shirt and jeans right now.

How did you find this website?: My mother gave me the link.

Job: Office assistant. I work for my mother a couple times a week. I get paid pretty well(she'd just have to pay someone else to do it anyways...) I file receipts, make labels, put papers in plastic sheets, and staple together papers for my stepdads business. It's *really* boring, but at least it's at home. it's so boring that i on;y do it a couple times a week, if it wasn't so boring i'd have more money.

Plans for the future?: the future is looking good. I'm going to make some money, and when i'm 18, i'm planning on moving somewhere near one-winged-angel. Then when he's 18 I plan on marrying him, and living with him.

Any comments?: Yes. This is a *really* good idea. in fact i think i'll post my original one too!


and this is the one I wrote when I first joined, and I was 13.

Even though I joined in July 2004, I didn't start posting regularly until March 2006.

I have an entry in here somewhere, though.

What is your first name? Anna

Age: 24

Location: Kansas City, Missouri.

Hobbies and Interests: I've been writing songs since I was 12, love singing and knowing more about vocal technique, scrapbooking, photoshop, drawing, painting, photography. Essentially things I can express my creativity through.

Why are you here? My friend google told me that this place was expecting me, since I was searching Asperger's (beings that I have it). I'm surprised it took me this long to get out my first post.

When were you diagnosed?: August 2001, when I was 17.

Favorite subjects: music, hands down. It's one of the few things I think that comes easy to me, it always has. Secondly, art. I also do have some interest in the sciences and some history though.

Year/Grade: This last july, I just got my associates in college.

Favorite music: bsb & christina have the most expanse in my itunes music library (yes, even after all these years, you heard right, bsb still has a special place in my heart *giggles*), but I do like other stuff too, ranging from foo fighters, to goo goo dolls, music from the final fantasy games, elliott yamin, rasputina, garbage, smashing pumpkins, older no doubt, sarah mclachlan, cascada, annie ross,... there's a ton of music.

Books: I align myself to the likes of Orwell and H.G. Wells.

TV shows/Movies: mythbusters, ghost hunters, upon occasion: house,.. as for movies, Singin' In the Rain, The Goonies, The Ring.

Instrument: For about 7 years, I played the violin, and burned out on it miserably. I play guitar badly (mostly because of my picking hand can't keep up lol) but I know several chords. Same for keyboards and piano. I don't have a lot of instrumental skill with the piano, but I can hammer out chords to get the general idea out. In which I would like to take lessons pertaining to guitar and piano/keyboards. However, vocally, I have a good range and know good technique.

Do you like sports? Hockey is the most entertaining to watch, and I'm pretty good at running (was once on a track team as a distance runner), but other than that, no. I'm an abomination when it comes to sports. My aim is just horrible. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm left-eye dominant and right-handed/right-footed. Bowling with my boyfriend does get a few laughs between us though.

Family: I am the 2nd youngest. the 3rd of 4 girls. My dad wanted a son, he just never got one.

Clothing: I'm no label sheep, I'll scope out what I like 2nd-hand as long as it's in good condition and I can put together a decent outfit with it. I like things that are vibrant and colorful though, yet still look professional. So I'll either play up my shirt, or my pants but not do both so it's not overpowering.

Job: I'm on the job hunt right now.

Plans for the future? find job, hold job, start submitting songs if I want this dream to get any further.
