I volunteer at a special school and also i help these kids. The teacher said that i am a good helper and i work very hard. I love these kids. I understand them because i myself have special needs. The kids in the class have autism,deafness, and it is mostly a non-verbal class. The class is low functioning. I have mild mental retardation but it will not stop me from doing what i want to do. It will be the second school year for me to be helping at the special school. This school is the school that i have got special services from them that they serve soo many schools. I have got services for 9 years. from that schools services. I went to a regular school but in the school i had special ed. classes.
I am working on my 2nd language and that is american sign language. I have my own cell phone. Because we have mild mental retardation does not mean we are dumb or anything, we just have harder time doing things. Our life is a obstacle course. WE have to try extra hard to do things.

I do write very slow but writing is hard for me. I can't drive. I have trouble with rembering more than one direction at a time. When i get done with one thing than you have to say that what the next thing i need to do. I have trouble with cleaning. I don't know where to start so it is frustrating for me. I have trouble with getting started on things. So i have to have someone help me get started. I am still living at my parent's house.
