but I've probably spent

an entire year in my room...

and... and now I'm...

I'm sort of feeling

like I'm ready to step out again

into the world

and... and be social.

I am not alone

I am not alone

I am

not alone

I am

Thank you so much.

That was fun.

Julie, voice-over: It's been

really hard for Michelle

to find a job

that she's able to do.

They're just not out there

here in Bangor,

and I don't think there's

gonna be a lot of employers

that are going

to give her the chance

because she's going to need

a lot of assistance

and a lot of time.

I don't know if, you know,

someone has the patience

for that

or if she has the patience

in herself for that.

I'm cold, and I am shamed

Lying naked on the floor

Illusion never changed

Into something real

I'm wide awake, and I can see

the perfect sky is torn

And don't forget to wish

Michelle a happy birthday,

2-1 birthday right here.

How'd I do?

Whoo!

You rocked it.

Yours is the birthday, honey?

Happy birthday.

You can sing so beautiful.

Thank you.

Aw, I'm gonna cry.

You can.

I, um... I actually...

You sing better than me.

I... I can't...

I can't see the screen.

I'm legally blind,

so any more...

any song that I know

I have to memorize

all the words to, so, uh...

I know that, honey.

You're amazing.

Aw, thank you so much.

Keep it up.

You do a great job.

I found out about an opportunity

that I think would be

really amazing for you.

The guy that created

the "Rugrats"...

do you know that cartoon?

I very well know it.

Um, he would really love

to have you be an intern

there in Los Angeles

either this summer

or this fall if you

would be interested.

I'm shaking.

I'm gonna sit down.

I... I... uh, are you sure

I'm not dreaming?

What would he want me

to do as, like, an intern?

Does... he knows I'm blind,

right? Like...

He knows you're blind.

OK.

Maybe you would get

to voice characters.

Oh, my God, do you know

how much I want to be

a voice actor since I was,

like, a little, little kid?

Oh, my goodness.

Ha ha ha!

I don't really have

the money to really be...

I... I live on SSI

right now, so...

We want to work with you

to figure it out.

And I'd... yes.

What?

Seriously.

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha!

No.

I'm not even...

No. Your...

your mom...

your mom doesn't

want to lose you.

Wow. Ha ha!

Yeah.

Honey, that's awesome.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Crazy.

I know. Yeah.

It's crazy talk.

Yeah. I know.

That's awesome, honey.

Are you really considering it?

Yeah.

All right.

Yeah. I really am.

It's, like, my...

my big break.

He wants me

to come to L.A.

and live in L.A.

and be a voice actor,

be his intern

and do voice acting.

Oh, wow.
