Hoping for Snow Day
By: Grace
I hope it’s warm where you are because it’s definitely not warm here. Tomorrow we will get snow. I am hoping for another snow day. We had one yesterday.
I am excited about being in my church choir. I just joined last week and I feel like the people are very nice and welcoming. I feel like I have a valued role in our parish. My mom used to do a lot at our old parish and she was valued there.
I am trying to decide if I should audition for a female part in Man of LaMancha which is being performed at an all boys high school. They need girls for parts too. If I do that I have to put some other things on hold like horseback riding, learning about ways I can contribute to my community, and probably choir. I don’t know what to do.
Tomorrow I start a program at the local university. I will go 1 day a week for about 3 hours for 12 weeks. It will help me to figure out what I want to do and what I need to get there. I am not happy about this. I think I should just stay at school and be a junior like everyone else. But it does get me out of math which I do not like at all. It stinks that it doesn’t get me out of science though.
I don’t want to do this program because it is for people with disabilities and I don’t like doing things that are just about disability. I just want to be like every other kid. I guess I need different help to prepare for what I will do . i guess its called transitioning. My mother always says we all have differences and that we have to accept ourselves and be happy as we are. I know but it is hard when people just focus on my disability. There are other things about me.
Ok I am done for now I’ll write again soon.
