Notes on a Blind Teenager

What do I look like?
Why are there some people singled out as prettiest or most hadsome?
Am I pretty?
Do people laugh and make fun of me right in front of my face?
I hope the seats arent moved around in class today.
All I can do is touch, listen, smell...
Am I up to date with fashion?
people are getting really annoyed with me bumping into them
I'm sick of all the questions (can you see this? how about this?)


insecurities-->
does my body look like the most popular girl in school's body?
why don't any boys want to talk to me?
i'll never get a boyfriend
why don't I get invited to parties or dances?

i'm human just like everyone else
i have feelings and emotions
i can hurt, cry, laugh...love

"How do you know where to sit in your classes?"
"It's a routine, i just get used to it...kind of like crying myself to sleep"
