I'm Cait. I'm 20 years old, female, diagnosed with Asperger's a year and a half ago. I live in Portland, and I'm a student at Portland State University. Right now I'm studying Political Science (major) and Spanish (minor). I suppose it's a typical major for anyone planning to go to law school, but even if I weren't planning on being an attorney I'd still major in it because I find it interesting. I sometimes wish I'd stuck with Art as a major, though.

I tend to be kind of quiet, but I'm actually pretty nice.

Sooo... Hi!

Hi Cait, I'm Keith. Business major at the U of FL.

Is your name short for Caitlyn?

Hiya to both of you!

Cait,

Drat! Better luck to me next time! I only guessed because I have a friend named Caitlyn. Your spelling is the more usual one, i believe.

Enjoy your time here at WP. See you in the forums!

I've seen at least five different spellings for my name.

And thanks

Does being quiet usually preclude someone from being nice?

Not the last time I checked, Sanity.

Welcome to the forums, Cait.

I hope you enjoy it here and there's lots of nice people, as well as many random discussions in various areas of the site, if you haven't figured that out yet.

Welcome Cait!

Do you have an idea of what type of law you would like to study? I'd really like to go back to school to study educational law but I don't see it happening.

Hello

Welcome! You are correct. Political science is a good choice of a major for someone who want to go to law school. I appreciate the fact that some people want to make a social effort, and you are no exception. We are a very smart group of people, and several, if not many of us, are online throughout the day.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I like this place.

Beebee, I also want to study educational law. I foresee doing a lot of child advocacy/mental health advocacy as well. I've still got two more years of undergrad to go, but I'm excited.

Well, that would make another proofreader here. *high fives Cait*
