Hello everyone,
I am from Singapore here. Just hope to make more friends over here
I don't have any friends like me here in Singapore, and sometimes I do wish to share my experience and thinking so here I am ![Smile :) :)](/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png)
I was born deaf in a hearing family, but come to think of it, I am not sure if I can be considered deaf or just having serious hearing loss. I could hear with a pair of reliable hearing aids, and could communicate quite well except that I do have pronunciation issues. I learnt to lip read by myself since young. I did not know how I came to do it, but I just learnt it somehow. I do not know sign language though since I did not attend any special school.
I got the same difficulties as everyone here, being unable to catch up well in conversations in my daily life
And in Singapore here, getting a job is quite difficult, unlike USA where everyone is treated equal.
Okay, perhaps I should introduce myself more than to talk about such "upsetting" stuffs. I am 24 this year and I have graduated with a IT degree last year. I have about 4 years of working experience now and am working as a Senior Web Developer now in a small company. Sometimes I should thank my mom for the smooth path for myself, as I believe that she has been praying for everyone daily. (She is a buddhist but I believe each religion are good in their own way, don't you think so?)
That's all for my short introduction, hoping to hear from you guys soon![Smile :) :)](/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png)
