Hello!
Welcome to my blog, bluenoo42. My username is made up of my sign name (Blue), a nickname that my family calls me (Noo), and the answer to life, the universe, and everything (42). You can call me Noo. I made this blog originally to message someone about how good their fanfic was, but I decided to stay for the community.
About me:
I'm 24 years old and a white cisgender woman from the UK.
I am probably on the aroace spectrum, but I'm not really sure if I want to label it because I don't know whether it's asexuality or whether it is just touch aversion due to sensory sensitivities.
I am autistic. I don't know the level because I was diagnosed as a child before they started doing the levels. I am (very) verbal, and I don't have an intellectual disability.
I became profoundly deaf in both ears 3 years ago, and I now use a cochlear implant and British Sign Language to communicate.
I have a balance disorder due to my inner ears being damaged, which sounds like no big deal but is actually super hard to live with, and it isn't talked about a lot online, so I'll be sharing some of my experiences with that.
I also have Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder, which never seems to be talked about in real life, but I was so surprised to find a massive online community here!
My main special interests are palaeontology and languages. I currently work as a guide doing fossil tours during my holidays, and I'm studying Spanish and British Sign Language at University.
I would love for this blog to become a positive place where I can feel accepted and meet people similar to myself. I find socialising in real life hard, and my family (while they are perfectly nice people) don't really make the effort to understand and include me.
I don't really understand the concept of a DNI, but please don't come on here to be unkind to anyone. I'm not going to be educated on absolutely everything, so I might make some mistakes. Please let me know if something I say is inaccurate or comes across as hurtful. I'm very sensitive to criticism, so please do it as gently as possible!
