Profile: I'm an autistic young woman with a gothic heart. i was born in Redondo Beach, CA and i grew up in San Antonio, Corpus Christi and finally Alice, Tx for 13 years but then i moved to South Wales in the UK (United Kingdom) for nearly 5 years. i had tons of trouble when growing up because of my Asperger syndrome (high functioning autism) and i didnt have many friends. my beloved mother struggled to find out what my condition was and why it was there so she took me to every doctor that she could hoping that one of them would have the answer while i struggled in school miserably because believe it or not i didnt learn how to speak till i was six years old! every doctor gave me enough pills to fill up a pharmacy to see if i improve, none of them worked instead some of them gave unbearable side effects like pulling my hair and eyelashes out or drowsiness and stuff. so finally my loving mother took me to see two psychiatrists and they both knew my condition was autism the minute we started to speak to each other but i was twelve at the time so my childhood went down the drain along with my confidence, dignity and self esteem because even though i had found out what was wrong with me i never received the help i truly needed throughout my childhood and the only "help" the brain dead teachers could give me was special needs programs and freaking summer schools! but when we moved to Wales my life turned upside down because there was a school that i often visited specializes in all kinds of disability especially autism! my school life changed as well, i was the only smart one in school and they put me in a nearly advanced classes. the only downside of that school is that it was an all girl school and those girls were horrible so i made friends with the emos because they were sweethearts and smarter than the others. because of that i transfered to a different school in year 12 because we had the choice to do so and its an all boys school (only because i havent socialised with guys of my age for three years) where i am studying performing arts (drama) and my confidence has boosted to its potential and my self esteem has returned to me. years go by and i embraced the gothic lifestyle but i didnt have the outfits (lol), i have made so many new friends but my closest friend was Sadie, she was my first friend in wales and we had so much in common but not as much as my equally autistic buddy Mitchell and he's a full on goth, sadly we only meet in Trinity Fields (the school who helps kids like me). moving to a different country has been the greatest experience i ever have, i made so much more friends than ever before. but i still love Texas.Likes: i love watching horror movies especially if theres something supernatural or out of the ordinary but my two favorite movies of all time are Repo! The Genetic Opera and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but i mostly prefer watching Tim Burton's movies because he has the most extraordinary imagination like no other (Steven Spielberg can just kiss my ass). i deeply love cats (who doesn't?) as well as other animals even nocturnal animals like bats they are my favorite. i have an absolute fascination for the strange and unusual. i really really really love goths, emos and anybody that wears black makeup because they just look so cool and alluring, but most of all I LOVE VAMPIRES (not the Twilight ones because they're shit, i mean the REAL vampires like the ones in the early movies like Dracula or Lestat and the real life ones like Don Henrie or Father Sebastiaan).Dislikes: preps, chavs, bimbos, plastics, "normal" people, idiot doctors, mosquitoes, fleas (bleh!), conformity, people who criticizes or judge others by looks, ideas and behavior, bitches and assholes,but most of all I CANT STAND POLITICS they can all just kiss my sweet autistic ass!Favorite Music: i love all kinds of rock music especially shock rock; rock bands that 'shocks' people, i also like to listen to Lady Gaga because she's different and i like different.
