(and I never know what to say in these things ...)

I was diagnosed two years ago, aged 22, after having a diagnosis of dyslexia/dyscalculia at 18 - which is probably still relevant but not as much as the Asperger's diagnosis is.
I've been working/training in Geographic Information Systems, a career I kinda fell into, for just under a year.
I like music (many kinds), reading, shopping (in moderation - noise, sounds etc stress me out), walking etc.
I hate over-crowded places, high temperatures (I like summer in theory), high-pitched noises (there was an unexpected fire alarm at work the other week - argh! nightmare!)

It's nice to see a thriving Autism/Aspergers community :)

Hello and welcome cheers to the Wrong Planet, fellow-traveler Kirsty_84. Your "summer in theory" gave me a good chuckle.
