Hello, I'm Alec. I have been legally diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome since I was a late 17 year old.

My main obsession is currently Anime, Manga, and Japanese culture for the past two years. So excuse me if that's what I talk about, a lot. XD (But don't worry, I have other interests I promise!)

Special things about my body include my red hair and left-handedness along with having an under weight body.

I have all the generalizations of autisim except for being exceptional at math and lacking sympathy as they say. My most noticeable aspects of my autisim is my very sensitive hearing and extremely timid character (as you would probably already have guessed, I'm quite nervous to be posting right now).

Let's see...I'm 18, in my last year of high school, trying to make friends outside of the wired (with a little success so far) and I'm Christian.

I hope you can get to know me better from here.

-Alec

Nice to meet you!

I've also had anime as an obsession recently. Have you seen the "Slayers" series?

Why promise? Many here share the same passion... I myself (otaku as they say) remain pretty silent about my passions, because I don't think others care...

NB: I am into star wars, animes and harry potter...

:arrow: if we discuss about our passions to NT people, we don't need to have to bear their critisism. Here I don't suppose no one criticizes.

WELCOME to WP !

I am also pretty timid but I don't feel so timid here. I hope you come to feel equally welcomed! We're glad to have you, Alec!

indeed, no one here is bizarre. We all have passions, and we may all be somewhat "shy/ timid"...

Hope you enjoy it here.

How much Japanese can I speak?

Eto, eto...

Ahno...

Atashii...wish I knew more then 25 words from watching enough series. XD

You'll have to forgive me for being so shy, and apologizing frequently even though nothing is wrong. It just takes me time to warm up, even among a community of me's. XD

Thanks for the welcomes everyone.

You remind of two people I am close to.

You'll be OK here.
