Talking about school

I have Cerebral Palsy and I'm a student at Bob Jones High School in the 10th grade. Last year I went to Columbine High School in Colorado but had to move because of my dad's job. I have someone helping me in two of my classes. I leave early before each class ends so I don't fall down when the hallways are crowded. I'm having a hard time making friends because I have a disability and this being my first year in Alabama. I hope I can find some great friends. I roll a backpack all around school because it's easier than carrying a heavy bookbag.

You are so smiley! Keep making videos, your presence is so joyful!

And about making new friends... nothing says "I'm cool!" more than bringing a huge batch of cookies to school!

Try it out and see what happens ;)

It confuses me when people say they have difficulty understanding you; I can understand you just fine! :D I also disagree with previous comments, you don't need cookies or brownies to make friends, you're already a wonderfully great person, i'd be proud to call you my friend! Keep up the good work, watching your videos always puts a smile on my face :)

I have spastic diplegia. I think your videos are wonderful. My speech is affected slightly, but not too much. My legs are just really tight. I'd be proud to have you as a friend. Keep your chin up. You're doing well :)

I am a teacher at Bob Jones. Her smile inspires me every day I see her. I cannot make it through a day without seeing her smile and getting a hug from her. Charisse is the sweetest person I know!

Quisiera por este medio saludar especialmente a esta chica porque, detrás de su dificultad física, se destaca una mente brillante intentando descollar. Un ejemplo de vida y de superación...
