Day 300

You don’t have to do everything exactly like everybody else does – that’s what I learned today 🙂

t’s 7: 26 PM on day 300 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, have breakfast with my entended family at Wimpy – my aunt and uncle have retired and moving to Canada this month and they wanted to treat us to breakfast once last time it was a bit of a hassle for my mother to get both my grandma and I ready but other than that it was fun 🙂 – publish my Kid of the Week feature, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign – no luck –  read 7 years ago (give or take) on 4 Little Monkeys – a blog post about through
the unexpected –  feed myself rice and curry for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

This morning while at breakfast everybody else was eating with a fork and knife and although there was a part of me that wanted to try it I knew that it would only end in disaster so I decided to do what worked for me – I asked my sister to cut the bacon and ate it with my hands along with a couple of slices of toast – and that I guess is my message to all of you, you don’t have to follow protocol if you can’t just do what works for you. Do you waste your life trying to do everything exactly right?

If you follow you cannot lead – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 7: 53 PM on day 281 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself an French fries and cheese puffs for breakfast, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign – no luck – watch TV, tweet about my campaign some more – no luck – listen to Advice by Christina Grimmie (@TheRealGrimmie) –that song is everything I ever wanted to say to all the young girls out there (see video below) – feed myself tapioca and beef curry for lunch, continue to tweet about my campaign – still no luck  – feed myself rice and curry for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

Today my brother asked my parents if he could stay home from school because his friends had bunked yesterday and on Friday and although my parents obliged him my father said this before he left if you’re staying home because you’re sick I won’t force you to go but if you’re doing this because you’re friends did it’s your life… one day your friends might start drinking will you join them and that I guess is a question for all of us am I willing to sacrifice doing what I know is right just to belong. Do you follow the crowd or choose to forge your own path?
