Raindrops on Roses
I'm a nerdy, awkward, musical theater addict who's super bad at these "about me" things.

So I was googling myself…
typical boredom activity, you know you’ve done it.
Amongst the cast lists, track times, school newsletters, church bulletins for my grandmother’s church where I’m on the prayer list and foundation fighting blindness/ vision walk stuff… I found something new.
A girl who goes to my school, she’s a sophomore, wrote a blog post about me for her Theology class last year. I’ve known this girl since I was in the 4th grade and we’ve never been friends. We went to the same gradeschool and her attitude has always been immature and annoying. Most people share this view and I haven’t really seen a change in it in her time in high school.
ANYWAY. The blog post was about someone you admire. And she wrote about me. I immediately broke down crying. For someone like her, who hasn’t really seen much niceness from my end either, to write a blog post about me is amazing to me. I’m so grateful, but don’t really know how to say something to her without it being creepy. I don’t care if it was typical theology class bullshit, the fact she even thought of me is enough. I feel so thankful I found this.
My hero is my neighbor… She was diagnosed with stargardt’s diease five years ago. When she first found out she had this diease she was told she would be blind by the time she reached 16. Jill is 16 and currently a Juinor at GMA high school and is still able to see enough that she only needs classes, for now. Everyday she struggles with this diease. Eventhough she will eventually go blind she always remains happy and opptimistic. She never let this diease bring her down. That is why Jill is my hero.
Like everyone and their mother knows how I feel about people treating me special for my disease, but I guess if it’s positive and comes from a good enough place, I’m alright with it.
**edit: I realize this post makes me sound sicker than I am, with the church bulletin things and her saying i’ll eventually go blind. I will not necessarily go blind and the church bullentins were from awhile back when they didn’t know what was wrong with me.
