We were talking about them earlier.
Mine is somewhere between 130-150.
I'm not sure. = w="

PapillonCameo 03-03-2011 01:48 PM

I have no clue what mine is,and really I don't care all that much..Because there's a whole bunch of different intelligences,and IQ tests don't go over them all. But I think it was like..130? I can't remember. >.<

monstahh` 03-03-2011 01:50 PM

I agree, but IQ is one of those intelligences and I like knowing I'm above average IQ.

I really don't have much going for me.
Physically I'm a mess.
Emotionally I'm a train wreck.
Experience? I lack it.
Artistic ability? PFFFTTT HAHAHAHA. /has terrible technique, and will never get any better due to my Dysgraphia.

:sweat:

I just want one thing, just one that I can go, Yay! I'm not a total failure!

/sobs
I totally just got outbid last second...

T___T And now I don't have enough to counter it.

A minute left and short 50 gold.

PapillonCameo 03-03-2011 01:58 PM

True,it is nice knowing that you're above average in something at least. You seem fien emotionally,as for experience..I'm pretty sure you have more then me!

How much do you need to outbid whoever it is?

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 01:58 PM

Monstahh I'm not socially inept! I'm weird as fuck though and with the proper company, that's totally celebrated!

I don't do art well either...I used to fail it and my teacher told me I sucked (we had the talk about dysgraphia) God you should have seen a paragraph I had to write in class...and my aide that doesn't work for me often last week told me my writing seems to be a bit worse. But I can't control my hand on the page and it cramps and makes everything worse.

And yes there are different intelligences...I have high quantitative skills but that's because when I can see stuff and pay attention I'm really observant.

monstahh` 03-03-2011 01:59 PM

Oh don't worry about it, it finally ending.
gimme a sec and I'll send the gold back, I feel bad taking gold when the auction's already ended. I can try to make some more later. :sweat:

I just kindof had a freak out because I was so close and now I have to pee.
So brb. ><

PapillonCameo 03-03-2011 02:01 PM

You should have seen the group of people I hung out with at university.Let's just say everyone was very unique,and loud,and outgoing.

Alright monstahh,hopefully next time you'll get it!

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 02:05 PM

YAY FOR ODDNESS.

Papillon did you lend monstahh the money for the auction? How nice of you!

Sorry, you said Asperger's and everyone with Asperger's that I know/knew, is pretty socially inept.
I'm awkward and weird and just stupid sometimes socially...They blatantly didn't give a crap about social nuances and such.

My handwriting is awful and my hands hurt when I try to write a lot.
A lot of people when I was in school used to claim I was faking it too. :/
But fortunately it all got settled by high school and in time for the SATs.

I'm not incredibly detail oriented. I tend to look at the big picture and the future more than most kids my age. So I miss out on a lot of things now, because I'm worrying about 5 minutes from now...And it affects all aspects of my life. e.e

Pap is a nice lady. * w*

And considering the day I've had, well, it's nice to see that.

PapillonCameo 03-03-2011 02:10 PM

Aaww you're welcome monstahh,and hopefully your day is going to go better.

Sadly I need to say goodbye,work calls! Otherwise I'd stick around and chat some more.

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 02:11 PM

It's not that we don't give a crap...most people with Asperger's really want to connect with people but just don't know how to do it. With therapy I seem pretty normal and just quirky. Girls with Asperger's are affected differently than boys are; it's more subtle in girls and instead we just seem obsessive and a bit shy. Most special education majors notice my AS when they get to know me because of my difficulties with sensory integration. I always need to be stimulated but get overstimulated so easily.

I'm a sucker for yarn. You have yarn and I'm your friend forever!

monstahh` 03-03-2011 02:12 PM

Bye bye Pap. * n*

Really? I didn't know that.
Most of the people I knew with it were guys...so no surprise. :sweat:
But I do know for a fact that at least two of the 5 of them, blatantly ignored social cues and niceties because...well, they had Aspberger's and they could get away with it. :/

That sounds like me. I can't sit still, and I always need to be doing something, be it watching something or reading something or just, touching something interesting--I love textures.
And, I get overloaded a lot of the times because people are trying to make me multi-task just that bit too far.

I freak out on Andy ALL the time because he's trying to talk to me but I'm reading something and then he gets pissed off at me when I don't hear him...And I'm like ????? I was reading I didn't hear you. :/
And he gets grumpy.

----------

lololo, not that I have aspberger's.
Just that maybe I'm a little bit weird...I think it's more to do with my ADHD.

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 02:46 PM

You very well could have Asperger's...girls have a lower diagnosis rate and I wasn't diagnosed until I was 20!!! ADHD and AS often occur together and overlap in symptoms...I can hyyperfocus in some respects...like if I'm reading Wikipedia...I can look up three hours later and be like "What the fuck just happened?" but other things I'm just like "Lalalala" lol. It's gotten me in trouble at home because my dad doesn't understand my challenges but he's been trying lately because my mom's on his ass about it :)

It's a pain when people use it as an excuse to purposefully be rude...and people like that make it difficult for people to understand when someone DOES have trouble understanding and is trying to. I have to say, talking to people online has helped my communication skills SO MUCH because it's less intimidating and then I just apply what I learn online to real life.

Go snuggle with your inner yarn goddess :D

monstahh` 03-03-2011 02:53 PM

I don't hyperfocus as much as I used to (in school I would sometimes get really drawn in to interesting school work, or an interesting textbook..usually history, and just sit there reading it like it's a bestseller. xDD), at least not for long periods. I'm too jittery and there is too much I want to do...but never get done. :sweat: So I'm constantly pulling myself away from things to do other things...or I'd never even try to do them.

Same, talking to people and "making friends" online has at the very least, made me less lonely and taught me some ways to talk to people better.
I've always been very shy, but when I get to open up, I'm a total chatterbug. o 3o

Speaking of yarn, I was just cuddling with my blankey.

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 02:57 PM

Haha I used to be drawn to my mom's robe...you know...when I first started college. I was like a cat on catnip :)

My therapist noticed i'm really jittery...I pick at my face and nails and with my fragile skin, I scar and stuff which doesn't help. We're trying to find ways for me to fidget without being destructive. I was playing with my pants under the table one night at dinner and my friend teased me that I was masturbating >.<

monstahh` 03-03-2011 03:07 PM

I pick at my lips and touch my face a lot. >__<

But I don't scar that much on my face?
I don't think anyway.

If I need to fidget, I usually just pick at the stuff under my nails...It's gross, but it keeps my hands away from my lips and my, um, genital-area.
I tend to sit on my hands a lot with them jammed in my crotch.

e we;; People probably think I'm gross.

ReineDeLaSeine14 03-03-2011 03:09 PM

You are but that's okay ;)

I scar so much because of my EDS...it makes my skin tear easily which is why my habit's so...um...destructive? It's really different from intentional self injury...it's a compulsion for me...I tend to fidget with my doll....when I'm home I keep picking at my poor dog :(

monstahh` 03-03-2011 03:19 PM

XP Geethanks.

And that sucks.
I'm a self mutilator not so much by choice, but...well. I purposely hurt myself, because I don't know how else to handle my emotions, and because I feel like I deserve the punishment. :/
I just can't seem to stop myself lately.
It takes everything I have to limit the damage.

But I can't imagine picking at my face not thinking about it and whoops, another scar, omg. With how much I touch my face, I'd be DOOOMED.

quasievilgenius 03-03-2011 06:41 PM

octothorpe.

REALLY?

I had no idea that's what the name of the '#' symbol is.

monstahh` 03-03-2011 06:46 PM

I just call it the scratch. :B

quasievilgenius 03-03-2011 06:49 PM

the phone companies call it the 'pound' key.

monstahh` 03-03-2011 06:58 PM

Yeah well its a butt.

quasievilgenius 03-03-2011 07:04 PM

you're a butt.

monstahh` 03-03-2011 07:04 PM

It's fucking cold again. I'm grinding my teeth, ow.

quasievilgenius 03-03-2011 07:05 PM

yeah I had to put on my hoodie. It's gorgeous outside, but I'll bet its crisp like celery.

Get your celery glove on, and get your celery, get your celery glove on cuz it needs handling properly...
