Leaders Around Me


I am very excited. It is really cool that I was able to read this book. It helps me realize that I am not alone. 

I like to think that I am very smart. I didn’t know that there are people like me.

I like the book. I am very inspired. There are some people who discovered RPM very late in their lives. But they still keep going to communicate. There are some who started while they were young. They were able to make great progress. I feel fortunate to be able to learn RPM when I am still young. I want to make more progress. I want to be able to type. I know I can. I will!

Prison of Silence

I used to have lots of tantrums.  It is because I couldn’t communicate. It was very frustrating.  I couldn’t talk,  I couldn’t use sign language, I couldn’t use AAC.  I felt trapped, I felt pain, I felt frustrated. I hit myself, I hit my family, I hit my friends. After I use RPM, I am able to communicate. I am able to talk using the letterboard.  I am free from the prison of silence.  I am free to express myself. Few people in the world understand what it is like to not have a voice.  It is the most painful experience I have ever had. I am happy that I can talk now.  I want to help others. Everyone deserves to communicate!

My Brother

Lang is my older brother. He is eleven years old. I really like him. He is the best brother ever! He really loves me. He never complains no matter how my behaviors are. I am very fortunate to be his little brother.  I wish I can play with him.  I wish I can talk to him.  I know I can!  One day I will make him proud!  One day I will be an inspiration.  One day I will change the world.

Year end reflection

Image
I was in a public school in the special needs room where they taught me baby stuff. I am now at OMS, a private inclusion school where I learn grade level curriculum.  It has been a transitional year for me.  I am reborn. I am so proud of myself. I am here with a voice. I am smart. I am teachable. I am a genius. It is the public schools that failed me. I especially want to say to the people  who didn’t believe in me:  You are wrong. You destroyed me. You made me feel like killing myself. But I am strong. I am going to live a meaningful life. I am going to help others who cannot talk. It is important to me that I want to tell my stories  so that more people understand people like me. I want to be heard. I have a voice.
