by Meabh Collins Things I will be in Irish college: * Friendly to everyone (agree with everything they say) * Easy-going * Nice (compliment everyone's clothes/ make-up)Things I will NOT be: * Annoying (don't ask too many questions) * Embarrassing * Weird (no stupid jokes or comments) Freya's always felt different, so when she learns she's autistic she doesn't want anyone to know. All she wants is to fit in.
