I agree. It's the exact same thing I run into with people who have normal stomach viruses, indigestion, morning sickness, or the flu saying they have 'food poisoning.' Honestly? Food poisoning is serious! Just because you drank half a keg of beer on an empty stomach, ate three pounds of taco...

I think this would entirely depend on who was doing the teaching. If it's in a class or other educational environment, with lots of structure and a schedule, then it is probably very focused on grammar and proper structure. If they learn from a friend or something, the focus is probably going...

I used to have something similar with my vision. I have astigmatism in both eyes, but every once in a while I would be able to see perfectly clear without any glasses or contacts or anything... until I blinked and everything got fuzzy again.

I think he's just saying the illness resulted in three things - mental issues, hearing loss, and loss of speech - and not that being deaf or mute (is this still a pc term?) makes one mentally challenged. Or maybe I'm wrong and he is saying that. I wouldn't worry too much about your hearing...

And it's also possible (since we have alot of theories already :) ) that the person invited her in a way she perceived as offensive and so she got defensive. Maybe the person made it sound like no deaf person could possibly function and be happy without involvement int he Deaf Community, that...

Aw - that's so complimentary! Who wouldn't love such a lovely name? Is it alright to ask why people have specific sign names or is that seen as too personal?

She has a beautiful voice. I don't know much about Jazz music, but she is very easy to enjoy.

Thanks for the encouraging words! I'm a hearing student majoring in ASL, so I think it's probably a little different for me, but the quality of the program is pitiful and I want to be the best, most qualified interpreter I can be. If that means I have to move half way across the country and...

And better yet, would he date a woman 22 years older than he is - a woman 70 years old?

When my uncle started dating my aunt who was five years older (he was 20 and she was 25) people flipped out. Which is kind of weird because she looked 15-18 and he looked 25 :) They're still together and happy 25 years later. And she still looks younger. From my experience, I get more...

I don't watch tv unless it's a documentary or movie during class. But I do spend a disgusting amount of time on youtube.

D'oh! You caught me :) I was going to ask you to write my Philosophy paper or do my biology homework but that's obviously out now too, isn't it?

I am literally in tears from laughing. Maybe they're not looking for a relationship. Just friendship... with special, special benefits :naughty:

Wow! Thanks - this is a lot of things I never considered - traction pads and chapstick are fabulous suggestions. And I hadn't even considered long underwear :) Eeep! I'm hoping to just live on campus the first year and not have to worry about learning to drive a car through the snow and all...

Hiyas to you, too! :wave:

I'm currently in the process of applying as a transfer student and I should know in the next few months if I get accepted or not - I really, really hope I do! I'm so nervous... Anyway, my mother asked me to make a list of all of the things I will need to buy as far as clothing and winter...
