Leesie walked in, abnormally hungry. She sat down and began eating alone, plotting out her plan for her next dodgeball game.
Leesie walked up behind Miley. "Hey. You are?"

Leesie rolled her eyes and felt like clawing their eyes out all of the sudden.
Leesie didn't answer but got something out of het backpack. She threw it on the ground and the room was instantly smoked up. It was a smoke bomb. When the mist evaporated, Leesie was gone.

Susan coughed after Leesie threw the smoke bomb. "I don't know why she did that for, was it something I said?" she asked.
((Haha, that's just my personality. Whenever I feel like too much people are around, I get awkward and tend to leave.))

She walked back in. "I'll be in our room if you want to talk." She then left again.
"autisum is a disease that causes kids to experience the world differently from the way most other kids do. It's hard for kids with autism to talk with other people and express themselves using words. Kids who have autism usually keep to themselves and many can't communicate without special help.They also may react to what's going on around them in unusual ways. Normal sounds may really bother someone with autism — so much so that the person covers his or her ears. Being touched, even in a gentle way, may feel uncomfortable.
Kids with autism often can't make connections that other kids make easily. For example, when someone smiles, you know the smiling person is happy or being friendly. But a kid with autism may have trouble connecting that smile with the person's happy feelings.
A kid who has autism also has trouble linking words to their meanings. Imagine trying to understand what your mom is saying if you didn't know what her words really mean. It is doubly frustrating then if a kid can't come up with the right words to express his or her own thoughts.
Autism causes kids to act in unusual ways. They might flap their hands, say certain words over and over, have temper tantrums, or play only with one particular toy. Most kids with autism don't like changes in routines. They like to stay on a schedule that is always the same. They also may insist that their toys or other objects be arranged a certain way and get upset if these items are moved or disturbed. ((my cuz has autisum and this is from a report I wrote on it)) and the run is to raise awarness and get donations for a cure!"
Susan came back with a hot fudge sundae and sat down. "I'd like to help if I could!" said Susan fingering her hair.
"Well I have a list of people who we need to invite, but I like to connect an actually invite them over the phone. I have the list, if you're interested stop by juliet house"

"Uh, everything?" Izabel said, following Arabella, "You see, my best friends little brother has autism... Soooooo...." She grinned, "Can I do publicity, and donations? Like basically be like a manager or something???"
"I do too have time!" Susan declared. "I'll stop by the Juliet house after class." She walked over to the trash can and threw her emptry container away.
