I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR!

Hi Everyone!

I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL New Year! Last December my apartment complex has a celebration which is every year and it is called "Over The Rainbow Celebration! I was chosen to speak about what my life is like living independently, how far I've come, and what I'm going to achieve!

The coordinator who is in charge of the activities, came to my apartment to interview me on what it is like for a young disabled adult living independently! I played the piano for part of the celebration as well! My family and I didn't get to the celebration because of the weather! I feel very horned to be part of the celebration! I have made a small community of friends since I moved here that I hope lasts for a lifetime!

NEVER be afraid too follow your heart and listen to dreams because YOU can do whatever you set your mind to! You also have to learn how to make decisions on your own! It's scary for some one who is disabled but the more decisions you make hopefully will be the right ones! You have to learn to depend on YOURSELF and NO ONE ELSE! In the long run, it's all about what YOU want your life to be!
