I go to Miriam School, my most difficult class is reading because it is really hard for me to read out loud and remember what I read. It is easier for me to hear the words so I can understand the story. Alot of my friends have difficulty with math. Math comes easy to me because my brain can do the math problems in my head quickly. I can see numbers much better than words.
Teasing is another thing because it makes me sad when me or my friends get teased. If you think about it, it is not as bad as a lot of other schools with bullies. Because of the Occupational Therapy (OT) at my school, it is more easier to calm down. In fact, they have a huge obstacle course that has a ball pit, squeeze machines, trampolines, a swing, and more OT stuff. I can hold my anger in pretty easily because I trained myself to do that. It is very confusing that a friend would tease another friend. When I hear someone else get teased, I ask them to stop please or walk away. When I or someone else gets teased, it does make me upset but I can practically hold it in till I can find something else to think about. I wish people would just accept people for who they are, but life is not always fair.
Sometimes when people burp or do any other nasty stuff, it can make me gag because I start thinking about it and it's hard to get it out of my mind. I always wanted to help kids with autism my whole life because I too have autism. My mom works at an autism clinic and I want to be like her. Next month, I have been asked to be at my school to teach the Board Members about what it is like to have autism.
