Sorry I haven't written in a while. My life has been hectic
lately. Hopefully it will slow down a lot for me. These last two weeks have
been really busy for me because I had my IEP (indevidule education plan)
meeting and this week has been crazy at school.
I thought my IEP went really good. An IEP is basically
accommodations and goals to help somebody who has a disability and is in
special ED. People think just because you're in special ED you don't know
anything or you're a baby. Let me tell you one thing, I'm in special ED but I
was in an honors pre - calc my senior year before everything happened.
Basically an IEP is there to help you to make school better and is required by
the ADA . We discussed
what my schedule is for the week and what kind of classes I have. After the
meeting my grandma and my case worker took me back to my old high school for
lunch. It was good to be with my best friend for a little while. I got to see
my former aide who had me in kindergarten and first grade. It was good to catch
up with her. Then, it was time to go to my grandma's house and get ready to go
out to eat with my best friend. I love our favorite restaurant. We can sit and
talk for hours with out anybody saying anything. That helps us take a lot off,
because we know the other won't tell anybody else what we're talking about. We
really want to move in together with my boyfriend in our own apartment really
soon. We have been really close since a few months into their freshman year.
Which has been hard because it was my junior year. I had a hard time leaving
them to go to my school now. Its 45 minutes away from my hometown. I can't wait
until they both come here. I'm very proud of them standing up with their choice
no matter what their moms want for them. I went through with that with my
sister a year ago. I know how hard it is and I'm still learning how to advocate
for myself.
On Saturday we had to go run some earns. My other best friend came over and hung out
all afternoon, we walked to dairy queen for lunch and just chilled till she had
to go to work. We had a relaxing night. We had dinner and watched a movie. After
the movie we got on the WII and played 3 games of bowling. Of course I lost all
3 games again. When I used to play with my cousins I was good, but everytime we
play I suck. We always have fun though.
On Sunday, we went to a flea market at the high school. I like
to go and look around at the different stuff people made. I got to see lots of
people I haven’t seen in a long time. It was hard not to spend money on baby
stuff for my sister. After we walked around twice, we went to go get lunch. When
we got home we had to get my stuff ready to go back to school.
It’s always nice to spend the weekend with my “grandparents:”
But this is it for now. Hopefully I’ll be on next weekend
LOVE AND GOD BLESS
