I am a hearie, currenty taking the beginning ASL. I am here to get better at ASL, make friends and learn more about the community and culture.
I am from the bay area, california.

:wave:
 
:welcome: to AllDeaf forum. Are you asleep in California like being bore and trying to stay awake on the computer? :hmm:

Enjoy reading and posting all the threads here. See you around here. :wave:
 
Thank you for all the warm welcomes. I had been reading the site for a few days before I decided to register and post.
I took the name asleep because I felt like I had been "asleep" or ignorant of the deaf world. I signed up for ASL a few weeks ago because I thought the language was beautiful, but I didn't know or acknowledge anything else beyond that. I was ignorant of your identity, your culture, your struggles and everything else.

So here I am, hoping to learn more about your world and be accepted.
I'll take off my coat and stay around for awhile here.

Hello to everyone in the house :wave:

At the bold statement, thank you for clearing that up for me. I never knew it is a way of phrasing the word "asleep" for ignoring or not aware of the Deaf World and Deaf Culture. I get it. Yes, I want you to stay around as long as you like.

Have fun reading and posting all the threads here. See you around here. :wave:
 
don't be surprised if you encounter pricks and assholes around here. Oh also, refuse any requests to see your b00bs. They shouldn't get it that easy. :P :)

Did you know there's deaf pizza social in Fremont once every month?

No, but I happen to study at the Starbucks place in Santa Clara that hold a deaf event once every month also. So I am going to that one instead. I do know there are schools and churches for the Deaf community in Fremont.
I don't plan to socialize that much anytime soon because my ASL is at totter101 level right now - maybe in a few months. We'll see
