| The typical being bullied all throughout school (not college so much, thank goodness), but the most recent thing I recall was trying to do something nice for someone only for the person to think I was making fun of them and for that same person to keep harping on it. I find it mean because I tried t... |

| It's not that I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to driving... It's just that I have anxiety and I panic every time I get behind the wheel. (I've been afraid of driving for a long time now, but a terrible car accident turned the fear into a phobia.) |

I currently have a Betta fish named Seymour (Named after Seymour Guado from "Final Fantasy X") that I've had for almost two years and a West Highland White Terrier mix named Luna (Because she goes nuts when she's in a playful mood... |

| I like puzzles. My two favorite types are Jigsaw and Crosswords. While crosswords are disposable, I have finished Jigsaw puzzles that are beginning to pile up. (I glue them as soon as I finish them.) The last Jigsaw puzzle I did was a 1,000 piece one. I finished it in two days. Crosswords on the oth... |

| It's really strange... Certain smells give me headaches, other smells make me gag, and there are a few smells I can tolerate and even like. There are even times where I smell something and comment on it, but no one else around me can smell it. (Such as a skunk smell outside.) I must have a really se... |

Winning!" thing grates on my nerves, his rants about "Adonis DNA" and "Tiger blood running through his veins" make me want to reach through the TV and punch him in the face, and... |

| The best one I can remember is dreaming that a teacher's aide's car broke down. (I was in High School when I had the dream.) The next day, I went into school and into the class where the aide was. He was telling the class about his run of bad luck. What made it eerie was the fact that he said HIS CA... |

I sided in with Thrax when I watched "Osmosis Jones". (I have it on DVD.) The guy Frank should've died instead of Thrax! He wasn't taking care of himself, he wasn't listening to those around him, and to top it all off, he was acting like a jerk and a pig! Darn heroes...  |

| In high school I was told that I had "flavors" of Asperger's, but nothing got done to prove that or help me out. Several years later, I started talking to a therapist who said that the "flavors" thing was bogus and that she thought I definitely did have it. At first I felt relieved, because a lot of... |

I don't drink because I choose not to. People say "a little alcohol won't hurt you", but I don't want to take that chance. One drink could turn into two, and so on. I don't plan on doing so in the future and my family's accepted that.  |

There have been times where people say "Oh sure, I'll be your friend", but as soon as other kids started to bully me, those people joined in on it too. I've had people throughout school saying ... |

| There are a lot of songs I don't like, but the one I can't stand for the life of me is "Take on me" by Aha. It's a long story as to why I can't stand the song, but every time I hear it, I have to change the radio station. |
