I have problems with writing. I have no motor control with writing instruements and despite the various 'writing therapies'' that I've had over the years, it hasn't really helped my writing very much.

Apparently I have the fondness for wearing clothing on the inside out, basing on the actions of today (I've described it on the How are you feeling thread).

To be serious; I'm interested in ancient history...which I think might be obvious..

I freely admit for my intelligence, sense of humor and creativity I can be very hateful, jealous and outright spiteful.

Interestingly I vary between friendly and not friendly dramatically, sometimes in a span of minutes.

I can hear things that most people can't, but I'm pretty sure that's common for several people with autism.

I have a rather explosive temper that can be pretty harsh if not kept under control. Also, I found the location of the Dead Sea on a globe by simply spinning it around. I even almost read an entire phonebook and made a call to someone until my mother took it away from me.

I have a tendency to run into things, and since I usually move at a power-walk pace or faster, this often yields disaster

.

For someone who can be so smart, like everybody else I am capable of doing some pretty stupid things. For example, last year I learned why it's a bad idea to run through a house immediately after turning the lights off

^All people, even the most intelligent people in the world can do some pretty dumb things.

So I wouldn't feel bad about it.

My first computer was a '98 Toshiba. After that a dell, and now, a mac.

I have a step aunt on my father's side of my family and baby step cousin on my mother's side who both come from Asia. My baby step cousin came from South Korea, and my step aunt came from Laos. In other words, I have a pretty diverse family.

My HP Pavillion dv6000 notebook is broken! After 3.5 years of great work and functionality, I have to say "goodbye" to my laptop.

Fortunately I saved lots of money so I can buy a PC. I'll create my own PC, and it'll be a high-end PC, so I can edit HD-Videos properly.

By the way, I've never really saved money, this is the first time I saved lots of money.

I don't see the appeal of tight pants. They're uncomfortable.

I find that I could look at home anywhere, despite the fact that I am very smart and my family has lots of money. Being a University student I've met a ton of people that are smarter then me, but I've also noticed that with great intellect comes a major lack of wisdom.

Even the smartest people can be surprisingly dumb sometimes.

yes, even the greatest minds fail at some things. einstein, whom we regard as the symbol for unmitigated brillaice, was horrible at math..

I feel stupid almost constantly these days…

I have hot hands, so it takes quite a bit of work when I work with foods like chocolate.

I've been mistaken to be a conservative person because I can get quiet in social settings.

the vending machine at my moms school gives out dollar coins as change, which both cool and a pain

When I was little, I could stand very cold temperatures. I even at one point went outside in a the snow with just a t-shirt and pants! :blink: And I didn't feel cold at all.

Nowadays, while I can stand colder temperatures then most other people, I definitely am smarter about protecting myself from heat and cold.

Since starting university I am finally able to keep to a routine without any spontaenous sudden moments, that disrupt me.

I recently overcame the fear of watching a particular movie I had for years.

It is always good when you can overcome something that gives you a fear. Unfortuantely I can't say the same, but well done.

I collect keyrings...

or rather people who rub their knowledge of something in your face purposely to show what "brilliant" people they are.

I often worry about coming off as a know-it-all, because I find so much enjoyment in sharing information and trivia. :unsure: I also have a habit of correcting people who state “facts” that I know are mistaken.
