So, hi! like I said, no idea if I should be here, but what the heck! why not.

a little about me: I love to play cello, upright bass, and electric bass. I can play violin and viola, but I really like cello and bass better. I am what you would call a fairly well rounded person, I enjoy and have talents in math, science, writing, and reading.

I have no idea if I have as or adhd or add or any of those other somewhat similar things. For all I know I might just be a bit eccentric. But, I dont really like doctors....so I have never bothered to find out or anything and for me it isnt a big deal.

I love to talk, but I can be shy. haha, i talk the ears off of most people I know, but in new places I barely say a word, and sometimes I wont talk to anybody, and other times I will not be shy at all and go up to people I dont know and strike up a conversation. When I was younger though I was just plain shy, barely even talked to people I knew.

I can never stop moving, my leg is always bobbing up and down, something is ALWAYS moving. or I feel odd. and contained. I like to jump up and down sometimes, when I am talking to a friend or whatever, I will just start jumping. Or kinda 'springing' on my feet.

I have focus problems. I can focus on something I dont really care about for 10 minutes if I try my best, and then maybe a little longer. But it gives me a blaring headache and I usually fall asleep, yes, right there in class. Just lay down and I am out right away. Focusing on something I dont want to, I can do, but it exhausts me. Then on things I like to do, I can be happily doing it for quite a while.

I am pretty socially awkward ESPECIALLY when I was younger. The last year though I have made a huge improvement, i dont know why.

I am impulsive too ><. Its like, ooooh a treee! and I start climbing without thinking if it is the least bit climbable.

I love to create things, I always have to be making something whether is making music, writing a song, or a poem, or a book, or drawing, or doodling, or designing a building, whatever. Its just my favorite thing to do.

aaaaaaaand.... i cant think of too much else to say.

oh! i know! I do tend for a few months to get really interested in something, research about it, buy things etc. and then, i just kinda lose interest and get a new one and so on.

and it bothers me when I have food on my hands, gross!

does anybody else run up the stairs on all fours? hahaha that might just be me.

annnnd...yep if you have any questions feel free to ask! If you have any idea of what I could have, do voice your opinion! I am open to any suggestions at all. sometimes I think I have a combination of a few =P

Well, you wouldn't be here if there wasn't something curious about you - and from the list above it sounds like there is.

Be glad that life is being kind to you

You're not the only one that does that - I do too.

You also strike me as a total Pisces. Everchanging. 8)

It's common to have AD(H)D and AS you could possibly have both. I say embrace you quirks. That's the approach I use. ;)

welcome to WP 8)

peterd-- thanks! haha, yes, all is well (for the time being)

I would say 'welcome' in return, but unfortunatly I have found over the years that that doesnt exactly work. Same with Happy Birthday, unless of course you have the same birthday as the person you are talking to. now I am ranting off again XD

leejosepho-- = ) do you play an instrument?

cheapie-- = D yay! those who run up stairs on all fours unite!

CelticGoddess-- why thank you! = ) I have always been proud to be a pisces. Embracing quirks? sounds like a great idea to me! I shall start tommorow!

Not very often any more, but I do still have an acoustic 12-string hanging on the wall. I have played trumpet and a bit of self-learned piano, but my all-time favorite was the standup bass in an acoustic group back in the late '60s.

leejosepho-- now thats awesomeness! = D
I am not great with guitar, my hands are too small to make a cord. =(
they are fun to mess around with though!

I started with violin, disliked it, and played cello instead. I liked that and got fairly good at it. I was in the pit for a musical, and they had 3 cellos and needed a bass. So I said I would take a go and see if I was any good at it. I started with upright since that looked most like a cello. It took a week, but I wasnt bad, and by the musical started I would get compliments now and then on my bass line =). My parents say we dont have space for an upright -__- so I am going to try and learn electric.
