I just decided to restart one of my papers with a new topic... it's due on Friday :uhoh:

MY NEW LATIN BOOK IS SO COOL :freak: Getting it made my day a little better :D

sorry I was talking to my dad... what a coincidence! I either did really well or really badly on my neurobiology test today! :dance:

I'm not good either :disappointed: I'm so so so exhausted, and all I want is to get through this week and find out if I got into Bryn Mawr :wreck: yeah! it doesn't show up if I don't put spaces in! <O> :confused: < O >

:confused:? so Marisa, how are you <O> edit: WHY WON'T IT SHOW UP WHEN I MAKE IT :angry: < O >

yeah, we have rather large chins :uhoh: but more importantly, we are holding hands IN FRIENDSHIP :dance: goodnight! I am jealous of your sleep :(

:uhoh:

:uhoh: *runs to photoshop* we totes should :wacko: we could share fun stories about daily LD-related things that happen to us! for example: today I got a brand new author to read in Latin class (LUCRETIUS YAY) and I got so excited that I ran through the school hugging the book and showing it to everyone... obsessions yay :P

tomorrow or Friday :bomb: so close! I know, I'm smart like that :P I by mistake made a "your mom" joke to my mom today that actually made sense, and I thought of you :)

united on the autism spectrum :blush: haha, I just had an image of us meeting on a rainbow or something :lol: cause of the visible light spectrum, autism spectrum... I'm weird. :shame:

better question: WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD FROM BRYN MAWR?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :bomb: you wouldn't forget if you knew me in real life :P not that I'm all weird in real life/different than I am on here, but it's just... more apparent :shrug:

I could make a chronological list of the obsessions that I've had throughout my life :P the biggest ones have been Latin, Beatles, and Coldplay, though :) yay! :cheesy: let's take over this thread and use it to discuss our oddities :dance: they said it's because on internet forums/online communication in general, there aren't really social conventions to follow and stuff :thinking: you don't have to worry about reading people's faces, etc, and you can think for as long as you want before you "speak" :thumbsup: true dat! being by yourself is where it's at!! :wacko:

I think these days my learning disability affects me most through my obsessions :uhoh: I get so ridiculously wrapped up in them, they're all-consuming- I actually wrote my college application essay about my obsessions, although in the essay I called them "passions" :P we weren't friends before? :bigcry: :P fun fact: I read somewhere that people with ASDs are more strongly drawn to places like internet forums... I thought that was really interesting :thinking: +10000000000000000 that's probably one of the truest statements that I've ever read :wacky:

well that's one of the biggest components of AS, being unable to read people ;) I'm so so so bad at reading people. It was worse when I was younger though, but since then I've had help learning to notice people's facial expressions/what facial expressions mean, etc...

you won't have heard of it, but it's called Nonverbal Learning Disability :nice: Some people believe it's something different from AS, but most believe that it's a form of AS on the autism spectrum (although not officially recognized :dozey:)... I fit the criteria for AS as well, though :shrug: I'm not sure I've ever met someone with a PDD-NOS before :thinking: maybe I have... ha I beat your score, 43! :P edit: damn, 45? I don't even know how I didn't get a perfect score :lol:

I just took it for fun too... :lol:

I have a learning disability that's a form of Asperger's... It's made life tough sometimes (social stuff can be a nightmare), but I've learned to deal with everything that it throws at me :) really, you have PDD-NOS? I didn't know that! haha, it takes a lot more than an online test to know if you have AS :P

ARGH I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF I GOT IN!

haha Makayla :lol: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQT88vFdVGQ]YouTube- Coldplay - Mischievous Guy - We ain't geography teacher[/ame]

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! :bigcry:

*tries not to say anything* ... ........ :lipsrsealed2: .... ... I CAN'T RESIST! the dis is too good to pass up! what's new? :dozey: phew! :sweatdrop: I saturn you, Marisa! <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> <O> edit: hey! the saturn symbols won't show up! < O > < O > < O > < O > < O > < O > < O > < O > < O > < O >

no you don't, they're so inconvenient (most of the time)! where do I start? :\ just lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of stress and too much work:( I'm getting through it, though... And by the end of the week I'll know if I got into Bryn Mawr, so there's something to look forward to.

I'm bad :disappointed: how are you? damnitttttttt it's sleeting outside... I cannot have a snow day tomorrow! :uhoh:

bahahahaha, I just saw your mood, Briggs :lol:
