let me help you,"
and treat her like
a little 5-year-old.
The thing is, she likes
to be treated like that
by the people in her life
that... that...
who respect her
as an adult and who are...
she's in kink
relationships with,
but when people
do it on the street,
she kind of wants to punch them
a little bit, you know?
Nonconsensual...
...sensual age play.
Age play.
I like that.
Age play is... is a kink term
which basically means,
like, being treated like a baby
or like a child, and...
I just... I really like
that power thing.
I really like that.
I really...
I am very curious to see
where... where you go with it.
Wallet,
retainer, headphone case.
That's all in there.
Actually, somebody
is meeting her at the gate,
get her from security
to the gate, she'll be all set.
I just want to
say that I hope you
have the best of time
and that you get
to meet everybody
that you want to meet...
I hope so, too.
And I would wish you to
make a big impression,
but I already know you will.
Ha ha ha!
I love you.
Love you, too.
Where are you?
"In Spain."
Ha ha! "In Spain," she says.
She's here.
Ahh! Whoo whoo!
I was trying
to call you this week.
You called me twice.
Yes.
Both times, I was at work,
but I got your voice mails,
and both times, I tried
to call you back,
and you didn't answer your phone...
- Oh, I'm sorry.
So I figured you had
your ringer off or whatever,
I was busy. - so have a seat.
- Surprise! Oh, man, give me a hug.
I can't believe you're here.
Yes, you can.
I know, but when
you weren't here
to begin with, I was...
OK, so, um, uh...
so sit down.
Oh, boy, this is gonna be great.
OK, so I went to L.A.,
and, uh, basically,
everything's so spread out there
and the... and
the transportation
is not nearly as good
as I was told it was,
and it would be
really, really hard
for me to live there
independently
without someone to
drive me around...
and so I realized
that the... that,
I mean, I might not have
to give it up entirely...
I mean, there might
be opportunities
in the future... but
I am giving up acting,
and I'm not
moving to L.A.,
so that's what I have
to tell you guys,
and I'm sorry if you
guys all expected me
to come back and
tell you that I was
moving out in two months
and that everything
went amazingly,
but it really didn't.
Happy birthday,
dear Michelle
Happy birthday to you
Make a wish.
Yay!
She's staying. Yay.
Before I went to L.A.,
I kind of told everyone
in my life that it was a...
that it was a done deal
that I was gonna be living there
and that that was just it,
but it was just going to be
generally a lot more difficult
than I thought it was.
I saw a lot of cracks
in my plan,
so hypothetically,
I go out there,
give up everything
that I'm about, and become...
and... and... and try
to become an actor.
There's no guarantee that I'm
going to have success with that,
whereas I'm already
living my dream of being myself.
I'm already a kinkster.
I'm already a nerd.
I'm already pansexual.
I want to be able
to live on my own.
That doesn't necessarily mean
making gourmet meals.
a, you know,
microwave master chef,
but I want to know
that I have the capacity
to live on my own...
and I've realized that
I want to write
and be an activist
for women's rights,
for LGBT, and for kink awareness
and sex positivity,
and I think if I say something,
it might give the courage
because they think, "Well,
if that young, blind woman"
can do it"... you know, because
sometimes...
"if a blind girl can do it,
then I guess I can do it."
Miss...
Miss Beautiful.
How could you hear me?
I couldn't, but I just knew
it was Miss Beautiful.
Aww.
So my name is Michelle Smith.
This is "Unlearning Normal,"
a bit of a story about my life
and some people who have tried
to stand in my way.
Boo. All right.
Boo.
OK. Thank you.
When I was 17,
the head house parent
in my cottage, which is kind of
like a dorm but different,
she was kind of, uh,
let's just say, closed-minded.
She kind of had this idea
that when you're an adult,
you do very adult things,
and you don't like Hello Kitty,
so what I did was, I went home,
and I got all
and brought it back
to school with me
and arranged it just so.
Whoo!
Whoo!
people in... in your life
who are gonna tell you that you
have to be a certain way
because your age, your gender,
your race,
your sexual orientation,
whatever, and I...
there's a wor... there's a word
for people like that.
They're called ass.
I mean, I'm... I'm a female.
I identify as female,
all the time.
I don't let my gender
or my age or my disability
that's just a fact...
I don't let that dictate
I just be me, and I feel like
that has made me more happy
than any popularity I ever got
being someone else.
Hi. What
brings you here?
Friends.
I'm here for pride.
I thought so. I know
a lot of people are.
Stop saying that.
You don't have to...
Yes, it is. I was supposed
to dress up for this.
It's not the end of
the world, Michelle.
It... it... it's symbolic
of the fact that
I'm not independent and
I can't take care of myself.
I can't see anybody
too much to go to
Bangor Housing Authority
to fill out application
for housing, Michelle.
That's what I'm saying.
I can't pick out my own clothes.
I would've walked
out of the house
with a too-low-cut top and
short pants that don't fit me.
Should I have not said anything?
I'm saying that I was
just ready to walk
out the door in this.
I can't live by myself.
I can't survive.
Why are we even going
to the apartment place
if I can't even dress myself?
You get dressed
every day by yourself.
Obviously not today,
not when it count...
not when it matters.
Well, and I won't be far away.
I can't drive.
How am I gonna get...
come and see you every day
and make sure I'm OK?
How am I gonna be OK?
Do you want me to help
you find something else?
Yes.
You can still wear that sweater.
Just wear, like,
a different tank top
underneath it.
OK.
One thing you didn't
realize is that when you
turned sideways, your right...
Boob?
yes...
and you couldn't
tell that, Michelle.
I felt like this
was the test to see
if I was... that I could
be independent,
and I felt like I failed.
Do you think I can
really live by myself?
I really do.
I do, and I think
living close by
here in Bangor
for a little while
is... is the best way.
You know, that way, you have me,
the support system
that when things come up
that you're not sure of,
that you...
I really do... I really
do want to live
in an apartment in Bangor...
I really do... for
