Hi all,

I sign pretty good (not turbo-speed or fluent total yet). I'm just really really shy. With everyone. I think a lot of it has to do that I grew up without understanding people so I felt stupid a lot. I kind of felt isolated. I'm also a bit nervous cause I grew up oral w/out HA's and I dont have the same experiences as others.

Anyways if anyone does meet me I'm the painfully shy short girl looking vaguely embarrassed. I figure I might as well try to socialize a little. I need to try and get over this shyness. I think most people are probably nice and if I try maybe it will be okay.

I would be more than happy to help you there and would make you feel at ease but unfortunately I live over 3,000 miles away but I am sure that there are many like me who will be down to earth and help you around without added pressure :)

Signing practice

I am hearing and I'm not fluent because I don't get out and go to deaf events. I would love to hook up and practice or even go to deaf events with you. I, too, feel a bit shy and uncomfortable. It's hard to step outside the box when you feel like you might be judged for not signing correctly
