High school and Epilepsy

Sun, 08/26/2007 - 23:30
Hi everyone my name is Gina; I am 17 years old and a senior in high school. Even though my epilepsy isn't sever I still really feel like a total out sider. It’s not that fun epically at school. I struggle in school a lot epically when it comes to school home work and making new friends because they don’t always get what we are going through in our every day lives. I love to swim in the pool all the time. I also take private piano lesions and do crafts in my spare time for fun like knitting bags and more. I find them very fun. I don’t drive which is pirty disappointing because all of my friends get to. Does anyone feel the same way as me? Talk to ya’ll later.

I love to go to Subway to get lunch. my favorite food there is the Italian sandwich. You should get a job there because it sounds like you really like it there. I might try to get a job at eater Kohl’s,old Navy or Pets mart. How about you? I like going to LA as well you have to go to San Fransisco some day because it is a beautiful city. I hope that you are doing alright. take care

Haha I've tried, it's a lot of fun, just too young, I'm 15, you have to be 17 to work there =/, I'd love to go to San Franscico one day, and I've heard Kohls is a nice job, and haven't heard the best about Old Navy, I know we don't live in the same area but companies tend to employ the same types of people and haver the same type of working environments
