Dreams are Dreams

since bear nessicties has worked

but tomarrow will be difficult because i have to go to work or else I can not go to basketball why n difficult because due to acting out once I now can not work in the afternoons which means I have to work during school hours missing two classes and my routine beng changed. I did not get to choses what i want to work at or when there are jobs after school with help so now i am going on a job hunt.

I am going to leave you with a poem

( me when I was almost three although I act three I am not three anymore)

Dreams are dreams

Teachers and job coaches

  I know you want the best

but what happens when you are gone?

  I have to have the ability

to go after my own dreams

and make my dreams live on

Everyone deserves to dream

clam what he wants

Dreams are dreams

goals or goals

satisfaction is satisfaction

but if you try to put people with disabilities into a mold

It like songbird dies in a golden change

A trap that I do not wish to fall into

I want no cage of gold

  I want to be as indecent as possible

so please will you try to talk to me

   I may feel frustrated

but please understand

It is due to the warrior spirit

I have had to acquire

to protect my own dreams

Dreams are dreams

School update

IEP: went really bad enough said..

In other news i have been acting well in English class. Four days in fact last Friday -through Thursday (Friday we went to a play about AIDS) It was part of days of respect which happened at school last week. the secret is simple Mr T is my favorite teacher this year and when he talked to me about relaxing and giving up being the center of attention it cliked thanks to a song. i have frond that I learn better too if I let the Info come to me thanks (Disney if y do not understand look below) and do not raise my hand . This has not yet transform into other classes yet but it has to start somewhere right?.


On Thursday my club the DDAC was a part of a school wide fair for Days of respect week. I did not get videos on my filp because it was so hectic. We set up two games or simulations one was blindfolding a person stick there hand into a paper bag and trying to see what the object was and the other was doing a puzzle with your fingers tied. Ido not have pics but will post about the simulations soon with what I have from the night before next week some time.

A Princess party

Or  not    .Tomarrow is  my annual  IEP.  Thanks  to  my wonderfull behavor and great  grades (so not the case)   the IEP  will  go  nicely.

 I am so  nevous.     I think  my  self  esteem  will be going  down  tomarrow  morning and  I will be  more nevous then  I am already am ( if  that  is  even possible)  for life after  high school.

  The  bad thing  is I   touched the fire  sota  speak last Thursday so  it  was  too  late  for this IEP  but  maybe  not  for  open  house  which  is  in  march but that  dose not cover  life after high school. ( more on these  topics   soon  i hope)

Disability simulations brain storm?

Do you guys know any good ones be creative. I am president of the disability awaieness club at my high school and we need ideas on disability simulations for high school aged students to learn about what is like to have a disability that is hands on and could be repeated at other schools thanks.

Comeing soon to a blog near you

well today is the second day of the DC summit which I am not at . so trying to make the best of a bad situation I am going to be sharing memories of K- 8 grade in regular school. This should be very fun and memorable just thought I let you know,

new technology

I am typing( with assistance from my hands) using Mac Speak. It is kinda hard to get the computer to understand me , but i am am hoping with more practice the computer will understand me.

Battle of the bay

Today I went to the cal Stanford women's basketball game. The game was called battle of the bay because they are both located in the SF bay area. My family met up with a family friend at the Maples pavillonwho have four girls who are younger then princess and one who is my brother's age. (I think the girl has a crush on laid back athlete) I was rooting for Stanford because my dad went there for med school and my siblings and I have been to a lot of camps there. Standford beat Cal 79-58. I thought I saw ms A but I never got close enough to tell.

After the game we went to Star bucks with the family we went to the game with I had a fun day even if the youngest beat me in war.
