Hello! You can call me 'Sona or Persona. I'm newly diagnosed with Aspergers (just a few weeks ago) and I've been sort of lurking in the forum without an account for a bit now. My special interest is in the physical sciences and mainly includes talking about health-related topics and marine biology, but I have a couple other smaller interests such as video gaming, writing and drawing.

I'm mainly here to learn, so I'm sorry if I ask a lot of questions! See you around!

Welcome to the "club"! I hope this place can be a source of strength for you. Are you left-handed like your avatar?

I think if I tried to draw with my left hand I'd look as uncomfortable as he does! I hadn't even realized I'd drawn him with the pencil in his left hand, actually -- my bad! I was sort of mirroring myself I guess...

And thank you!

Anyone who likes Batman is awesome in my book. I just signed up a few days ago too. Are you majoring in Marine Biology?

Thanks to you two as well for the welcomes!

Yes, my major is currently Marine Biology. The only question is whether or not I feel I can handle that amount of schooling in order to get the degree I need to start my own research projects!

And yes, Batman is awesome. :B -highfive-

-attempts to accept your highfive but misses and accidentally hits you in the face. runs away in embarrassment.-

I feel you. I was gunning for medical school but changed to nursing when it got too intense. Going for short terms goals instead of long term for now. I'd major in chemistry if Organic hadn't been so hard.
Batman in the 'how it should have ended' videos is the best batman btw.

-readjusts glasses- Goodness!

Wow, medical school? I considered going into human genetic research, but that would've been even more schooling and I'd prefer to work with animals than people...but Nursing is a great way to go!

I enjoy pretty much anything Batman related, but I won't pretend I know as much about it as I could. :P I'm just a casual fan.

Thanks for the welcome NorthPark!
