Well that was another eventful morning.
Somersaults, handstands, cartwheels and someone got sellotaped to their chair.

No one talks to me. I think that's because I don't have friends 
Ok, back to studying. I'd better stop thinking about how lame I am, I've got books and tv shows.

Oh right. I was thinking Ombre was the product name.
It sounds nice how you've done it already.

I'm studying medicine, physiology at the moment. Both fiction and non-fiction. Mostly sci-fi and fantasy, some classics, neurology, psychiatry and astronomy. TV shows - it's usually Doctor Who, I'm watching classical series now. I mostly watch British shows.

Unreal! We have some similar interests. Astronomy has been a life long Special Interest form me ever since I first looked up at the stars around 2-3 years old I think (and I'm 47 now). Long time.
Medicine has always fascinated me but it was never a special interest.
Psychology in general wasn't although I was completely blown away by schizophrenia during my late teens, early 20's. Watched every movie I could find on it, read every book I could find. Could practically recite the DSM-III definition of it. There was no Internet available then so it was hard to find info. I never knew about Asperger's back then but in hindsight, it definitely qualified as a special interest. What fascinated me originally/mostly was the hallucinations.
I always wanted to meet someone with it and when I finally did, it scared the hell out of me. They weren't pretty and nice like Nancy McKeon in "Strange Voices" or Kathleen Quinlan in "I Never Promised You A Rose Garden". They were more like the crazy cat lady out of the Simpsons - and that ended my several year interest in Schizophrenia!! !

Schizophrenia is interesting indeed. Psychiatry is my special interest, as well as neurology, that's why I chose to study medicine. We'll be studying at the clinics soon, I'm looking forward to it, so I'll see real people with disorders I've read in the books. But I still have no idea how I will work with people
I've been interested in astronomy since... I can't even remember. I wanted to become an astrophysisist when I was 8 and I still want a telescope
Films don't show disorders as they really are, I think. It's all different in real life. In my psychiatry book there were real stories about patients in the hospitals, and it wasn't as romantic as in films. More usual, maybe, but it's not the word. Like, a woman, who thought she was a "crystal of knowledge", or another one who felt fish in her veins. I've got an interesting monography about hallucinations I'm goind to read when I'll be free, I think it would be interesting.
