Unusual, huh? Well... I'll try to not make this a book.
1. I have Asperger's syndrome. I'm not ashamed, and I've accepted it's a part of who I am. I am, however, still half in the closet about it, but not for the reason you think. I'm just afraid people will treat me as the mute, intellectually slow, meltdown-happy child a lot of people think that people on the spectrum are once I tell them.
2. I have a chronic illness as well, and yay for me, one that only doctors seem to know about (Though I guess having the word "syndrome" in it is a dead giveaway to that). In a nutshell, my kidneys sometimes don't filter properly. It doesn't sound too bad, but believe me, IT IS FAR FROM THAT. And the treatment for a flare up is sometimes worse than the illness itself. And there's the being paranoid about it flaring again.
3. I'm what you consider a wallflower. I try not to get involved in group drama, and often listen to conversations to entertain myself, and/or use it for my OCs.
4. If I give you a full hug, that means I trust you. I give my trademark side hug when I'm being forced to hug someone.
5. I'm a lone wolf. I don't belong to any one group. I don't really mind, it lets me do my own thing when I want.
6. I'm an INTJ female.
7. I'm one of the few logical and concrete minds who doesn't understand math.
8. I hate when people say that the internet is depriving people of communication skills. It's actually helped me articulate my thoughts a lot better.
9. Going on from that, while I can speak, I'm not too good at getting my point across. I'm better at writing.
10. I hate small talk. Let's talk about something deep.
11. I don't seem like I'm from my home state because my parents are from a different state.
12. I'm 19, and I've never been kissed, nor have I been a relationship. No, I'm not weirdly religious. No, I'm neither aro nor ace.
13. When I was in 6th grade, the popular girls started inviting me to sit with them. Bear in mind that in the previous two years, I was an untouchable. By 8th grade, I was apparently the unofficial queen of my grade. By high school, I was the occasionally cool non entity. To this day, I'm wondering what happened in the 6th grade that made me cool...
14. I like to avoid stupid trends and memes.
15. I started writing because of The Hunger Games.
16. I don't follow sports like most Americans do.
17. Though I did play soccer as a kid.
18. And I swam. I swam for a while, and was convinced I was going to be the next Michael Phelps. I could do all the strokes except for Fly (For that I resent Rei from Free! getting on his FIRST TRY when I swam for FIVE YEARS and could never do it right!!! UGH!!). When I was 12, however, my health took a turn for the worse, and I retired.
19. I try to dress with class and comfort, but throw in a few edgy things from time to time.
20. I have this weird alto singing voice that only sounds good in a group.
21. Even though I spend a lot of time on it, I'm afraid to get a Tumblr because of the social justice warriors on it. Like, I'm sorry for happening to be white, cis, and straight. I don't have a problem with people who aren't those things. Why have a problem with me?
22. I don't like dogs, and I've been accused of not having a soul because of that.
23. I don't usually swear in real life, and as a result people (Besides a few friends) think I'm super innocent. I'm not, I just choose my words carefully.
24. I'm not ladylike, but I'm also not a tomboy.
25. I enjoy the simple things in life.
26. I'm obnoxiously competitive when it comes to card and board games.
27. I still don't have my driver's license. Driving anxiety reasons.
28. I never take my mashed potatoes without gravy. (That may not be strange to some people, but from where I've been, it is.
Heathens)
29. I can't eat most fruits because of the texture. (People tried to make me eat it a few times. Did not end well...)
I'll end it here... it's practically a short story already...
