well, I don't know if anyone actually reads this anymore. If you do, I am sorry because you will be sorely disappointed by this post.
I realized just now that my hair is becoming very long. Severely long. I am also typing with much more ease than i used to. and now that i am thinking about my typing skills, i'm making mistakes all over the place. funny how that happens right?
ASL camp was definitely an experience of my life time. well duh. that phrase makes no sense. sitting here typing this is also an experience of my life time simply because i am currently experiencing it. Ok, so ASL camp was a very interesting experience in my life time. hah. there we go. spending 9 days amongst kids and adults who use an amazing language that I have just begun to learn. American Sign Language. (I apologize for the uncharacteristic writing that I am doing, I just watched Camelot. i do this after i read books like Frankenstein too.) I never finished Frankenstein. Does he ever catch the monster or does it torment the Dr. for the rest of his life? apparently i really don't care or i would have finished reading the book. anyway, ASL camp was not fun. I disliked a great majority of it. but the knowledge and experience that I have come away with is amazing. I would have never realized how much Deaf kids are silently hurting inside. I'm not going to let this slip away from me. I'm going to continue learning ASL and I desperately want to use it to reach out to those hurting kids and bring them to Jesus so He can ease their pain and hurt because of isolation, rejection and misunderstanding. It goes deeper than that and I am determined to find out what it is. The world of Deaf people is so incredibly fascinating in every way. I love the people and their culture. I want to help.
