    How does one know when they are fluent in ASL?

    How do you know when you are fully wrapped in ASL? I have been devoting most of my time these past months learning ASL, and when I view videos of people signing on Youtube, I feel lost. I don't know where I am pertaining to progress, and I know that there are different signs for the same word, I...

    Comedy and actor Robin Williams died at aged 63

    I definitely agree with you there. It's known that most comedians suffer from depression, and his alcoholism brought him down even further. I personally believe that playing as many roles as he did may have put him into some sort of mental illness, so that he did not know what his true identity...

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    That would be great. I have Skype. What would be the best time for you? School starts on Wednesday so anytime after four would be optimal.

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    I think my school has a Deaf/HoH program, but yeah I've been in Honors classes the whole time. What ive been doing is sit in the front of the class. I sometimes get the words jumbled up, but for the most part I'm alright.

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    I'd love to go to a deaf school, but I would just feel out of place...like I don't belong. I am going to be a junior this year, and I suppose it's a little too late for me to attend a deaf or hoh school.

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    Well it was my mother who originally got me into signing, but shes lost the time for it with work and all, so I decided to pick it up and I love it. It is my life. So I recommend just getting a friend or a family member to learn, just to reinforce and have a good time.

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    I just want to communicate with EVERYONE, hearing or not. It is important that I learn, because one day I may lose hearing in my other ear. But are there any like...deaf-centered resturaunts or stores?

    Which Cochlear Implant is best?

    When I went to my audiologist, they recommended Baha Implants...but they plant a screw in your head, and I am a black male....I cant grow hair to cover it up quickly. So it really wasn't an option for me, but you may like it.

    its about time I learned

    There is this book that I used, and I'm getting good. It's called the Random House American Sign Language Dictionary, and it has showed me a lot. Also, a good website is Signing ASL ? American Sign Language, which is REALLY good.

    Hey from the Half Deaf kid!

    I never realized that the community was so diverse. And I am definitely planning to go to a deaf camp. It would really improve my ASL abilities. I have no teacher, but I use a dictionary and I am getting good at it.
