Paddy's Day

Celebrated going to the pub with the Deaf community. I HAD MY FLIP. So i was able to get a lot of footage, i keep rewinding the videos back because my friends are so amusing as they utilize sign language. THAT'S THE TOTAL BEAUTY OF THE LANGUAGE.

We were there for hours and my friend Nirvana was sick- I usually ask her what people are saying when I don't understand.

I found out that I was totally dependant on her, and use her as a cushion. I forced myself to stop utilizing the Deaf studies students in order to communicate with individuals that are Deaf. I am very well capable of holding down a conversation by myself.

MY CONFIDENCE WAS TOTALLY BOOSTED- I just need to find a film(er) who can capture me signing instead of just observing
