First Name: Hebrew for princess, I don't want to get into danger.
Age, 13
Location, Sydney, Australia
Hobbies and interests: Listening to any music I can get my hands on, journalling, poetry, eating copious amouts of sugar, History.
Why am I here? I felt pretty alone, I had massive teacher issues (still ongoing), I'm very bruised, I didn't know any other Aspies in the world, and I had been toying with the idea of joining an online community for months. So, Wrong Planet looked pretty good, so, here I am. Happy?
When were you diagnosed; I was dx end of 2004, I'd been through a rough year, some symptoms were emerging, and the pieces fit for my mother. So, off we went to the psychiatrist, and mum's prediction was correct.
Favourite subjects, Music, English, History, Religious Studies...heaps.
Year/Grade, Australian Curriculum Year 8.
Favourite music; Everything outside of Rap/Mainstream stuff, I ADORE Bjork, Reggae, UB40, Cheesy music, but I also adore Lamb, Enya... everything!
Books, I'm an auditary learner, I prefer listening to music, that's my escape route.
TV shows, Movies, Whale Rider, 10 things I hate about you, Chocolat, Amelie, and hate to admit it, but Titanic. 
Instrument, I sing.
Do you like sports? Nup, Not now, not ever. Hate 'em
Family, 2 younger Bro's Mum and Dad.
Clothing, Tracksuit pants, longsleeved t-shirt, various beanies.
How did I get here, Google search, aided by book, Freaks, Geeks and Aspergers Syndrome.
Job, I'm not old enough.
Plans for the future, I wanna go backpacking round the world, then to teach, and to give support and TLC to kids like me, whilst teaching English.

What is your first name? I think I'll stick with racemare for now. 
Age: 32
Location: Indiana, USA
Hobbies and Interests: Horses (horseback riding and Thoroughbred horse racing), animals (wildlife & cats/dogs), Native Americans history, mythology, atheism, reading fiction books, reading magazines, playing video games (mostly role-playing types), surfing the internet, collecting Breyer Horses.
Why are you here? I have figured out that I have Asperger's Syndrome and I would like to talk with other people on the spectrum.
When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): Not officially diagnosed (yet). Still trying to decide whether to get a formal diagnosis or not.
Favorite subjects: Philosophy, Animal Sciences, Anthropology.
Year/Grade: I am finished with formal education. I dropped out of high school after 10th grade but then I got my GED. I went on to college and majored in Philosophy but never graduated. Also tried majoring in Animal Sciences and Anthropology. I never really handled school very well, although I really enjoy learning.
Favorite music: Alternative rock, '70's & '80's music, heavy metal/hard rock.
Books: Anything written by Piers Anthony or Stephen King. I also love the Harry Potter series. Mostly I prefer fantasy science fiction or historical fiction about Native Americans.
TV shows/Movies: Current favorite TV shows: Lost, Desperate Housewives, King of Queens, Alias, The Simpsons, The Amazing Race. A sampling of my all-time favorite movies: The Neverending Story, The Dark Crystal, The Journey of Natty Gann, Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken, The Black Stallion, Pete's Dragon. Best recent movies include: Hotel Rwanda, Cast Away, Adaptation. I haven't seen very many movies this past decade due to my busy work schedule.
Instrument: I used to play the coronet when I was a kid. I also dabbled in the piano and the violin.
Do you like sports? Thoroughbred Horse Racing. I also enjoy watching the Olympics.
Family: An NT significant other (soon to be husband if we ever get the time) and his son (age 19), a Mom and step-dad, a Dad and his boyfriend, one brother (age 27), various cousins and three Grandparents. Many family members on my Dad's side exhibit definite signs of being on the spectrum somewhere, but no one but me seems to be aware of this. I also consider my 2 dogs, 10 cats and 50+ horses to be family as well! 
Clothing: Comfortable clothes only -- especially jeans and t-shirts.
How did you find this website? From a forum at Aspie Hangout or AS and their Partners -- I can't remember which.
Job: Self-employed as a horse breeder.
Plans for the future? Some time off!
