30 Questions with Gerry!

[Image Description: Gerry (left) sitting in a chair and smiling and I (right) am standing bent forward and smiling. Gerry is wearing a short-sleeved white t-shirt, dark purple glasses, and her straight blonde hair is in a half-up half-down hairdo. There is also a rectangular orange tray with two rectangular card board red and white containers of chicken tenders with a black and white checkered napkin in each on a black table in front of Gerry. To the left of the tray, there is a large-sized white cup of soda with 2 pictures of red soda bottles on it that say "Coca-Cola" in white text. The cup has a clear lid with a clear straw poked through it. I am wearing a dark maroon sweater and dark violet headband with my long, curly, brown hair down. There is a clear glass salt shaker with a silver metal lid on it in front of the tray that is in front of Gerry. Part of a rectangular orange tray with part of a rectangular card board red and white container of French fries and white card that says "20" in red text on the tray is also pictured in front of the salt. There are also dark red booths with dark brown tables behind us with a person in the booth to the left. The walls are also light turquoise with colorful pictures of cars (right) and a black t-shirt (left) with the "Flip n Shakes" logo on it in white text hanging on the wall.]





I decided to do my next inclusion interview with my friend Gerry (she/her/hers)! You might recognize Gerry from many of my past posts about my alma mater high school's Buddy Club events. Gerry and I go all the way back to when she was in elementary school and I was in high school. Currently, Gerry is in her first year of post-high school and continues to light up the room for anyone. I hope that you will enjoy learning about Gerry just as much as I do! 😊

[Image Description: "Let's Talk About Disability Representation in the Media" in center-aligned bright pink Barbie font outlined in white. The background of the image is a lighter shade of pink. My First Former Buddy Club President logo is also in the bottom left corner of the image with "FIRST FORMER BUDDY CLUB PRESIDENT" in center-aligned italicized black font overlapping an enlarged light blue heart with several small red hearts and a light blue background in the background of the enlarged heart. ]      Recently, as a child at heart, I watched the movie, Barbie (2023), for the first time.
