My name is Sarah. I was born March 29, 1996 and I’m 15 years old. When I was 2, I was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Not many people have heard about it and sometimes it makes me feel different from all the other kids I knew. Last year, my parents sent me to a treatment center connected with my school and said it was for kids who have matured and I will be there for the rest of the school year. Turns out, it was a treatment center for kids with bad problems. Some kids tease me and send death threats to me. Even though the school year already ended, I’m still there and I’m staying there maybe until January. I really felt like I was going to die and my life was over. I was madly in love with Justin Bieber and that was one of the things the kids teased me about. Even the staff teased me about it. They would call me “Sarah Bieber” or “Rosenbieber.” I felt miserable there. Some kids even drew on my Justin posters that I could not replace. Then one day I was doing art group there and a staff member told me that Justin Bieber was coming to Los Angeles that weekend for a book signing and I could go to it I my parents. I was thrilled. I called my parents right away to tell them. They told me I had school that day and they couldn’t take me to get the tickets. I had totally forgot about that, I was in my school’s Halloween fashion show that day and couldn’t miss out. Boy, I was surprised the next day when my mom came into my classroom and told me she got tickets to the signing for me, my cousin, and two friends to go and meet Justin Bieber! My mom had got up at 4:00 in the morning to go to The Grove and wait in line with a bunch of teenage girls and their moms to get the tickets. The tickets were $50.00 person and she also got one for herself cause all of us were under 18, so my mom spent over $100.00 so I can meet my dream man. At the signing, Justin was very nice. I waited 3 hours! I usually can’t stand waiting so long, but this was worth it. The best part was he put his arm around me! I was speechless the whole time! I even wrote a couple songs about it. I wrote a song called, “If This Was a Movie” about the day I met Justin. I will never forget the day that I actually felt special even though I had autism. Justin taught me to never give up on my dreams. My dream is to be a successful singer or actress. Because of Justin, I will never give up on that dreams. I hope he hasn’t forgotten about me! The picture I have of us together is on Twitter and Facebook! Every time I feel like a loser or I’m about to give up on something, I just look at the picture of us and remember what he has taught me. Someday I will achieve my dreams. I will never say never! Read more: My name is Sarah. I was born March 29, 1996 and I’m 15…
