Hello, my name is Melara Solaria. In English, it's Melara Solaria, or just Mimi, if that's too much.
Channel message from Fair on HP. Guys, help me.
No, shh.
I'm 18 years old from Los Angeles, but I'm moving to Europe, hopefully in a year.
I'm heavily microphone shy, so I'm so sorry if I stutter.
I speak two languages fully. I speak English and I speak Japanese.
I'm very heavily, heavily skilled on Japanese culture, so if you have any questions on that, you can ask me.
I love...

Okay, I'm not reading that.
My boyfriend is being...
Channel message from Fair on HP. Hey.
My boyfriend's being very social right now.
So...
Channel message from Fair on HP. Guys, help me, please.
So, since I'm a senior, I'm gonna cry.
Since I'm a senior this year, I wanted to share a few facts about me for my career choice.
Thing one...
I'll just sell jewelry, because if nothing else works, selling jewelry, I guess, will.
Thing two...
Maybe being a receptionist, again, if nothing else works.
My big plan, though, is I want to start showing off art as a blind person, specifically braille art.
Pretty sure somebody else has already done this before.
It's just something that popped into my head, and I am heavily career bipolar.
So, I'm going...
Gonna just go with it.
So, I still have one of those old Perkins Braillers.
And what I would do is get instructions on drawing, like, a Christmas tree or a heart or a human.
And I'm not good at the human yet.
And it's gonna go off. I'm sorry.
Discord.
And I'll just do it.
And right now, it's all over my bedroom wall.
I have a lot on my wall.
Some of them.
I shipped two family out of state, just so they could have it.
A lot of people that I've talked to, at least sighted people, have been very supportive of my idea.
But talking about my idea to the blind, I'm actually very, very nervous, because I don't know, like, if it's a good idea or not.
So, if I can get some feedback on that, that would help me so much.
I am a singer, but not professionally.
I...

Meow.
Yeah.
I'm a singer, but not professionally.
I just do it for fun.
I'm not the only one in my family who is blind.
I have a brother who is blind.
His name is Ethan.
Him and I are very, very close.
I am an advocate for humanitarian rights and for disability rights.
And I'm an advocate for...
Oh, no.
He's going to start talking now, because he knows I'm not going to read his things.
I'm also an advocate for, like, children's services.
And I support, like, GoFundMe pages around the world.
Because I feel like...
I read a book in fifth grade, and now I want to...
Do all that.
Some more stuff about me.
I don't really know what else I could say.
I really said most of the, like, important things.
Do you have something?
Or are you just going to laugh?
No, this is my second time recording this because of him.
Anyway, like I said, I do have questions.
I can answer any questions.
I can answer any questions.
I don't really care.
In school, I do literally just two things, and then I can go home.
So...
Oh, yeah.
I do work already now.
I forgot this part.
I am a shelf stalker at my...
I'm going to turn that off.
A shelf stalker at my local Target.
And I also go on construction jobs.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, I...
What I do is I put stuff together on shelves, and I also help customers out.
I'm on leave right now.
I'm on medical.
I'm going to hope to come back after the 22nd, but right now I am on medical.
My manager's very cool about that.
She's like, I don't care.
You're fine.
Yeah, I don't really have anything else.
If I do, then I'll just keep it to myself.
But I will answer any question.
I'm so sorry this is so long.
I am microphone shy, and my memory is terrible.
So, yeah.
Thank you.
Bear, how do I stop?
Just stop.
No, there isn't.
Then what does it show?
It just says send.
Oh, didn't you press send?
