    Ci president now

    Wirelessly posted I don't thing how deaf someone is or what kind of assistive device (ci or ha) should be a factor on becoming a president of a school or student body. I was so surprised at the whole uproar with gally back, what was it, 2006? 2007? I thought it was completely unnecessary...

    Motorcycle Helmet

    Wirelessly posted Yes and no. I get it a lot when I'm a passenger. With the way wind 'bends' around the person in front... it'll start putting pressure on my ears. Anything over 100+ mph, and it gets worse. Obviously when turning head sideways air/wind is being forced into the ears. But I was...

    Motorcycle Helmet

    I can hear my music without hearing aids. Engine noise isn't really that loud unless you're on some harley or have an aftermarket exhaust that's meant to be obnoxiously loud. The bike or bikes I'm on don't have a loud exhaust and the engines are fairly quiet. Wind pressure bothers me more...

    Models - what they really look like

    Typically, 'they' want runway models to be taller than 5'8 for females and 5'10 for males. I did some modelling when I was younger (16)... I was already 5'9 so they pushed me to train for runway...but I thought schooling was more important, so I just walked away from modelling. The...

    will hearing person leave you if find out you date deaf?

    I've never dated anyone that was/is deaf either. If its in reference to past relationships, I don't see why a hearing person would leave you for dating a deaf person. However, if you're dating more than one person, I hope everyone knows and has the mutual agreement, otherwise it'll come back...

    Confusion

    This is definitely something to tread carefully over. At one of my former jobs, one of my coworkers (a manager that was a couple years older than me), got it in his head he wanted to date me after I made it abundantly clear it wasn't going to happen. Long story short it turned into a stalking...

    One of these days id like to go to the week long races on the salt flats. That would be a blast. If anyone wants to see a movie based on a true story on the salt flats... watch 'worlds fastest indian'. Takes place in the 60's. Awesome movie.

    Fastest you've gone on a bicycle/motorcycle?

    What can I say? I like speed? If I had the money and parts and a mechanic and time... I'd be trying to hack it with the AMA superbikes.

    Motorcycle Helmet

    I prefer not wearing my hearing aid when I have my helmet on. All the wind noise prevents me from hearing the surroundings for the most part anyways. I've got a full face Icon Domain helmet. As bad as this sounds... Most of the time Ive got headphones in with music playing. Either way, with...

    Ill be attending the expo. I've been looking for an excuse or reason to get back in touch with the deaf culture. I miss being around deaf peers and friends. I'm also dragging my significant other with to push him to learn sign language if he wants to be with me for a long time. :D

    Did the Deaf community respond to negative attitudes?

    Haha... good question... I wonder.. Being that I'm the only deaf person in my entire family, I am told I can't do stuff all the time. I kind of have that personality that likes to "go against the grain", so to speak, and pretty much do everything opposite of what people say I can or cannot...

    are stanford, georgetown, rit, syracuse, and etc. friendly?

    I went to RIT for a year before I transferred to ASU for architecture. I actually really enjoyed RiTs deaf community as well as the surrounding areas. I went to a small town school and was the only deaf student so it was a bit of a culture shock for me to be around so many deaf students at...
