My name is Jon and I am 16 years old. I was diagnosed with Aspergers when I was little. I go to a public high school and I am in the special education program. There's only one class for us and I wish there was more. One of my goals after I finish high school is to try to give special education students more opportunities like sports and performing arts because my friends like to do that and sometimes the special ed class gets overlooked.

I really like to do math problems. This year I was able to take math in a regular high school class. The work wasnt hard, it was just hard to understand when the teacher talks to me or when we have to work with groups because I get nervous around a lot of people.

My mom has helped me a lot throughout my life. She helps me try to overcome my bad habits.

I would like to meet anyone who is interested in talking to me. Its easier for me to type to people instead of talking because I get shy ;)

Hello Jon, welcome,

I wonder why you call yourself sillyjon; I wouldn't call myself silly if I were you.

That is a very good goal!

Enjoy your stay on the Wrong Planet!
