I have a cousin who lives on a farm in Michigan...the Jehova's witnesses came by one day when she'd just finished butchering a pig....she answered the door with a cleaver, covered in blood. They ran, and never came back..

My Deaf roomie (who has low vision, so she's a bit of an exception in some cases i.e. I can't wave from too far away or she won't see me anyways, or suddenly appear beside her when she's walking) prefers I tap her if she knows I'm around. If not, I use a different method. When I get home I...

My school's doing an "International food day" every Wednesday. Today, they had fried plantains. DELICIOUS!!!

<waves> I know I'm not active, but I am a student! One of the reasons I don't post that much is because I don't feel like I can. It's not to say that people here aren't nice at all, but I'm not Deaf, therefore threads based on Deaf Experiences aren't something I feel I can contribute to. I...

Cooling off now (finally) around 94*F. I want it cooler.... >.>

In my experience, use of speech is generally up to each individual. I'm in the Deaf Dorm at my school, and my roommate (who became Deaf at 17) uses speech mostly when she's talking to hearing people. Sometimes she goes voice-off with people who know sign, but it also depends on how tired she...

Signed!!!

Where on Tumblr are these? I wanna follow that blog! Also: I fingerspell EVERYTHING (mostly road signs since I'm on the road at the moment) so I'm getting really fast fingerspelling, but I'm still not so great when it comes to understanding. My mom keeps getting after me for spelling when...

Southern BBQ...Very very different from the BBQ I'm used to in California. Also, pork chops with gravy, mashed potatoes, and hush puppies. Mmmmmmm hush puppies.

I'm feeling interesting.....I've been traveling for a while (hence no activity on here) and getting ready to move into the (Deaf!) Dorm at CSUN. So excited! Otherwise, I'm exhausted from moving around all the time, and the heat/humidity of North Carolina isn't agreeing with me. I like Cali's...

I just finished Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. I'm currently working on John Barrowman's autobiography and Timeless by Gail Carrigger (sp?), though I haven't had much time to finish either.

I haven't used it extensively but it's been handy for portability. I probably ought to look into it more to see the extent to which I can use it for school.

Welcome to AllDeaf!

Getting stuff sorted to start attending CSUN, working on packing for renovations/trip.

The largest amount of cats my family's ever had was...six? But we have a big house. They eventually either got given to good homes or allowed to be outside cats, with the dogs staying inside. I can't imagine 500...How do you even fit that in a house?!

It depends. Mostly I forgive and move on, but some people who hurt me left such an impact that I can't forget. There are some people who I can't forgive.... Most of that is me. Why couldn't I do this differently, or do that instead, or whatnot. I'm the type of person who tries to give the...

:shock: SO MANY NUMBERS!!! :dizzy:

Annuity, definitely. Especially if it was guaranteed. I'd rather know I have money coming in every year than go on a spending spree and lose everything.

My mom puts the unused portions of celery and carrots in there, too, like the leaves and ends that we'd normally toss. She also puts in chunks of onion. Gotta love leftover turkey soup!!

No sign name, for now I just fingerspell.
