From: Anything but Typical by Nora Raleigh Baskin
"Truthfully, language arts is my best class, but not because I have a good grade in it. I like it because there are no right answers, even if the teacher says there are. Even when they mark something wrong on your test or book report, it's really just their opinion, and in my opinion they could be wrong. It's like when you read the directions on the back of a package of brownie mix.
Two eggs or three?
Do you want chewy or cakelike?
There is no wrong answer.
Books are like brownies."
"Because I don't talk much, my mother thinks I am not feeling. For my mother, talking about feelings and feeling feelings are the same thing. But for me they're not."
"I am already having trouble enough in this little seat because the man next to me is so close. He smells like BO or cheese. I have to turn off my smell button just so I can breathe."
