Over the past few weeks I’ve been meeting with my mobility specialist at the CNIB once i a while in order to find new places that I may want to go. Places like the super market and mall, but also interesting places that are along the way or around. I had her help first year to learn my way around campus and also to learn where the bank was and other such things, but after that I kind of fell out of doing it. Now I’m learning about all sorts of fun places. It started with me needing to find my way to the CNIB building for something, and just went from there It’s always good to have someone help you find places and find the place you’re thinking about. Sometimes the hardest thing about Google Maps is that if you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for or what it might be called it’s harder to find, and if you don’t know it’s there (like she told me about a really neat cafe that I would never have known about had I not been told) there is no reason to find out. It’s pretty fun and I have to do it more especially since I plan on living here.

Voices
Since I’ve never been good at telling what people look like it’s very hard to tell who people are sometimes. It does make things difficult since if I’m in a big room it’s hard to tell where friends are. There are a bunch of times where people seem to “vanish” just because of my vision. So the way I’m used to recognizing people is by house their voice sounds. This also makes me have a strange sort of game that I have with anime where I try to see if I can identify a voice actor and the characters. Sometimes it’s easier than other times.
