Hi, I'm Jess...I'm sixteen. I was diagnosed with Asperger's a year ago by my shrink, and I'm interested in getting to know other people with the [I hate using the word "disease", but for lack of a better term...] disease. I enjoy writing, especially poetry and fiction, [www.fictionpress.com/~roxanedebergerac if you want to see my writing. ] and I LOVE theatre and music. I'm currently working on an eight part arrangement of songs from Little Shop of Horrors for my local town band. I have trouble relating to people, and in doing so, I don't have many friends who aren't in my circumscribed interests. I have a high IQ, but not many people like that, so they don't really take the time to find more out about me because I tend to be frustrating when others don't get my drift. Generally, I'm better with adults, but I wish that I could find some people my age who understand how I feel and what I'm like without judging me. It's really hard because nobody realizes that I have feelings just like any other person, but that I'm just "odd" and "quirky", to say a few. Usually, I do my own thing. For instance, if there's something I don't like/want to do [as I sit typing this in my incredibly boring history class ] I simply won't do it or I'll fashion it to myself. This usually results in frustrated teachers and increasingly falling grades. There was this one time when I wrote a short fictional piece and I got a C+, but the teacher recommended it for professional publication. I have a fear of losing people, maybe because so many people have been leaving me in friendships or betraying me throughout the years, and since I can't really understand their social cues, I don't get their drifts if they don't want to hear another rant on Wagnerian chants or something.

Anyhoo, I just figured I'd tell you a little about me, my favorite subject, and I'd love to hear back from you! I'm going to be posting here a lot more, but I'm a tad better with email, so if you want to chat, email/IM me at [email protected]. Thanks!

Welcome, Jess. I am glad that I'm not the only one here who enjoys indulging in artistic talents or interests- more like interests, for my sake of things. I hope you enjoy your stay here at WP.

The "Arts, Writing and Crafts" forum may be useful or enjoyable for you. I suggest you check that out when you have the opportunity to do so.

Thanks! So far, I really like it. It's a wonderful site. I did see the arts section, and I think I might have posted there. Thank you!

I hope you like posting here, and don't forget to join the Church of Garlic.

hi welcome to WP

Raph522 apologizes for her spelling and grammar.

Hmmmm...I'm already a Vegetable Cultist, have been for three and a half years...the Garlic Cult sounds wonderful, too.

Don't worry, Raph...I have a lot to apologize for, also.

Cyrano...I' know I've heard that before...

Cyrano de Bergerac, right?

You like large noses?

By the way, that comedy adaptation with Leslie Nielsen is awesome.

Welcome.
