| So I'm taking a French class which is designed to improve your conversational skills in that language- for example, having the right pronunciation, saying things in the right way, etc. I like doing the homework, which is a page-long essay and 10 definitions per week. It's so we don't forget how to w... |

So I'm taking a class on Shakespeare right now and, next to my abnormal psychology class, it's the absolute best.
Any other Aspies out there fans of the Bard? |

| I think my Asperger's is making me out to be a bad person. As part of my Asperger's, I have various obsessions, as do quite a few of you, but unlike most of you, some of these obsessions have been with people. That is, people that I have liked romantically. I don't know why- maybe it's because of my... |

| I have a final on the 19th, followed by two papers (one is 12-15 pages long) that are due on the 21st, which is also the day that I'm returning home for break. I'm also moving into a different room, so I have to pack before then also. However, classes end on Tuesday for us, and so we've been really ... |

| I think I might be in love. There's a part of me that isn't sure, though. I do know that I really want her to be happy, and I really want to make her happy. She has a girlfriend, and although I can make her happy by letting her be with her girlfriend, I want to be the one to make her happy. I know t... |

I love Homestar Runner. I don't particularly care for Homestar, though.
I do like Strong Bad, the Cheat, and Pom Pom. The only reason, other than the Teen Girl Squad, that I go on homestarrunner.com is to look at the SB e-mails. Those, in my opinion, are the pinnacle of modern American comedy. |

| So, one of the many things that I plan on doing when I get out of college is being a comic book artist. Not the superhero kind, but the alternative kind. And among other things, I plan on writing a story in comic form (although it may be a whole book, we'll see) about a guy who has Asperger's and is... |

| I'm not too big into the Beatles, but that's because I haven't had the opportunity to listen to many of their songs. I do like "Lady Madonna" a lot, and I really like the version on the new LOVE CD that just came out. |

I also try to be careful of what I say; a lot of times I think about whether or not I plan to say is OK to say in a certain situation. I am fairly good at keeping friends, I think, but college make... |

| British comedy, World War I, royal families, rare diseases (I used to want to be a doctor), law, people (mainly crushes, but until recently I didn't think my AS had anything to do with it), mythology, alternative comics, punk culture.

| Even though I shouldn't, and I know I shouldn't, I still do. I think it's because I want so badly to make friends that I become obsessive about every move I make and then start thinking that they care about whatever it is that I'm doing wrong. |

As for the whole attractiveness/looks like a guy issue, I've been told that I'm attractive, but I do have self-esteem issues so I don't always believe that. I don't think I look masculine, but I don't look femme either. I used to dress all f... |
