Oh hello.

I'm just this high school student, y'know?

Yesterday I took the Autism Spectrum Quotient test on Facebook (which does ask all fifty questions and is set up pretty much the same way the real one is) and I got a score of 35 which really opened up the possibility to me that I might have Asperger's. Upon mentioning this to one of my friends who has known me when I was even more socially inept than I am now, she said that she's thought I've had Asperger's since she knew me in the 7th grade, but that I'd improved in high school and she had assumed that I was on some sort of medication for it (which I'm not as it has never been diagnosed).

Anyway, I don't know as it has never been diagnosed, but it seems to fit with my lifelong social ineptitude (that has indeed improved in my high school years although I still hate small talk and socializing when I often have no genuine interest in it). So maybe I am an Aspie, maybe not, but either way, hello!
