I wasn’t able to change my destination to Toowoomba yesterday, as too many disabled people wanted to go there and the supervisors needed to get tiles so we can do our mosiacs. So a supervisor asked after she had explained the situation if there was anyone who will go fishing instead of going to Toowoomba and none of the intellectually disabled people who wanted to go to Toowoomba wanted to change. I guess that was so because most of them went fishing last week and didn’t want to go again.

And there was a lot of people who did change their mind about fishing yesterday, and after I changed back to going fishing six people went to Toowoomba which is most of the group and also there was one other physically disabled person who wanted to go to Toowoomba too. 

So after a bit of thought I told the supervisors that I’ll go fishing, and that made it three. And I had to say it twice as having a soft voice they didn’t hear me the first time. 

Also the lack of willingness had made me realise that it seems that physically disabled people are more able to work in with other peoples plans than a person that has a intellectual disability. Anyway the day wasn’t a wasted one: as I ended up catching two small silver perch, and that had made it the first time that I caught something. 

But I got the supervisor that was helping me to put the fish back in the water, and then afterwards I got to go to the library as I had two books there to pick up.
