Hi, I´m a 15 year old swedish AS.

My username is made by adding the two first letters in my first name with the two first in my second name.
I thougt it was cool becouse it sounded like a strange dialect of the word "Power".
A little childish, I know, but I don´t have the energy to make up a new one.

I found this webpage when I googled "asperger", and a Wikipedia-article with a link appeared. (google is your friend)
The doctor say I have a milder version of AS, in fact I think my version is the better balanced one.
I know allot, for instance you can tell by this thread I've got A+ in english(remeber 15 year, and swede) , but don´t have as many of the negative effects of AS.

I´m not sayng I have an exellent social life, but well enough for me.(allrigth, most As would probebley describe it that way.)

I like programming, mostley in C++. Pixeling, and spend far to much time at various waste-of-time-online-browser-games.

I am active at a small swedish forum for 'game makers' (can´t write links yet, becouse of spamrules ) , most of the members there are 14-16 years old, thoug.

Is there many, or any programmers here?
I think that people with AS would be more intrested in that than normals, but I don´t know any one with AS, execept myself.

Thanks for your time.

Hi POWA,

welcome to WP.

I actually thought that your username had something to do with fighting...as in some comics, it says "pow" or "powa" when hitting someone lol.
I'm not a programmer...but am saying hello anyway!
I hope you enjoy posting here.

Heya POWA, nothing wrong with being childish when making a username, for the longest time I went by "Lord Fluffy the loveable"...
not excatly fearsome is it? Yours is at least short and easy to remember. Well, welcome to wrongplanet, and I hope you find some programming buddies here.
Oh and remember: While Google is your friend, beware he has a twisted sense of humor!
