examiner2 0 #1 March 17, 2007 I read a post on this site a while ago, but I would like to let you guys and gals know my situation. I was diagnosed with aspergers my freshman year of high-school and placed into a seperate menatlly-challenged high-school section for my first and second years of high-school. For my third year, I was transferred back to my home high-school in an "emotionally-distressed" classroom for the year. I than went on to all regular classes for my senior year, and got accepted to Westerm Michigan University. I am considering transferring to Embry-Riddle to become a pilot (even though WMU has like the 3rd best pilot training in the U.S., and ER has the 1st and even have a skydiving club ;)) Even though I was diagnosed with aspergers syndrome, I refuse to let this fucking shit stop me from letting me acheive my long-term goals. If you want to make fun of me for my syndrome be my guest, because I could give a rat's ass of what you think about me. And if you applaud me, don't, because I only am doing what I love, and I'm nobody special except a skydiver. And to all of you who bitch about me being a "passenger" once, you better bet your fucking ass that I'll be back, again, and again, and again. Love, Sean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DFWAJG 4 #2 March 17, 2007 I wonder if you were even diagnosed correctly. Asperger's kids are referred to as "little professors." they typically have deficiencies in social interaction and may or may not have sterotypies or repetitive behavior. But people with Asperger's aren't retarded. They generally have a normal IQ and have normal language development. But anyhoo, do what you love baby.

You haven't asked any questions. Perhaps MySpace would be a more appropriate forum for announcing your life story to the world. If your syndrome could indeed pose a potential problem for you continuing to skydive (you've mentioned no specific manifestations of it/symptoms), consider the skydivers with disabilities forum?Why don't you just play 'chicken' on the railroad tracks? It would be a cheaper way to toy with death, I'm sure. CWR #2 - "You SAID collision!"

Funny how almost every nuisance youth I dealt with this last week had ADHD and Aspergers It means nothing mate. You've got nothing to prove, its more common than people who wear glasses nowadays.
