Or newish member. I got an account a while ago, but haven't used it much. I'm a bit shy about posting, so I tend to lurk for a while.

I'm a female college student. I don't really know what my deal is regarding ASD, which I just posted about in the general autism forum. I like black cats and art and (some) comic books and other stories.

Not sure what else to say here. Look forward to getting to know you all! :D

Hi! And hi to RoadRatt as well!

I just like whatever catches my interest, which usually involves a lot of bright colors. I have a strong fondness for Van Gogh (I have a lot of his prints). I like it when art has some sort of meaning or social purpose behind it, but I'm in it more for the aesthetics, to be honest. I'm very into doodling my own little things as well, but not much to be proud of.

Neuroscience. I think those of us with odd brains tend to gravitate toward the field. :lol:

Not likely. I've decided I don't like research all that much, so I'm going into the medical field. Hopefully it works out.

I think med school would be a bit much for me. I'm planning more for physician assisting.

I think that is a wise choice, either PA or nurse practitioner is the wave of the future regarding ground-level health care delivery services in America.

Hello, newish Mickey-Elle. I am from Finland and can you believe, I turned 60 while a member of WP. Chance is I am the oldest aspie around. I never asked the ladies their age. There are candidates, but I'd like to have my illusion.

Hello there and welcome (back?). What part of neuroscience are you most interested in?
