"I am an normal person. An excellent student with big dreams. A typical teenager with friends who are cool- And normal like me." ~Natalie
I believe that as Natalie says this, she is in denial. She can not believe that in a matter of months she has almost totally lost her eye sight. She doesn't understand how this could have possibly occured, her life was perfect, so now how was it ruined. I also believe that Natalie was acting ceneial altough she did not mean to act full of self- pride. This was her way of making herself feel better. It was obviously a rude way of doing so, but she wanted to show everyone that she was completely normal and can handle this situation. She didn't want to be blind so she thought that acting if she acted like she wasn't, it wouldn't effect her. She wanted to feel superior to all the other kids at the school. Her intention was to feel as normal as possible.
