Other Shoes

Well, Roy and Emily F are in my group. We couldn't decide what to do in the beginning, but we are now impersonating a mentally disabled child/teen. Emily will be the disabled one and i will be her 'older sister'. Emily will dress oddly with tube socks, tennis shoes, sweatpants, and a mis-matched shirt. Roy will be our recorder as we travel. We will go to Wal-Mart on 6th Street and also McDonald's. We are not going to the close stores b/c we are afraid there will be someone there who recognize us. Emily will not say anything really b/c she is 'slow'. I will hold her hand the whole time.
I predict that Emily and I will get a lot of looks. I hope that we will not have a horrible experience. We hope that we will learn what it is like to be singled out and different.
