I am taking ASL 1 in college and I have to go to Deaf events and need to meet Deaf people if I want to get good at signing but I'm nervous about going to my first event. I don't know alot and I don't know how I would communicate and meet people there. I mostly know introductions, months and days of the week and colors. So how would I approach people there and try to build relationships with Deaf people? And would they be annoyed that I'm trying to talk to them even though I can't carry on a long conversation?
