World peace & puppies for everyone...

Oh my gosh, does anybody realize what day it is? It's freakin Wednesday already. That's a scary thought. I was going to try to blog in ASL but I don't think my mind's going to work enough for that today. So, this morning...that video was much harder than I originally thought. I knew the information was pretty complex but I thought I had most of the concepts down. I guess I did but I put them in a different way. I voiced for the first part of the piece and it said about oralism and the different affects it has if used in replace of sign language. I voiced it more from the emphasis that sign language is important and shouldn't be overlooked and that it is important for the children. Well, that's kind of the point but not told in the right light. So my confidence went a little down from that.

We finished all the idioms? Yup, I guess so. Will I remember all 10-? of them? I doubt it. Ruby needs to get cracking on the webcam. April, stop being bored enough to read our ramblings and go help her. Haha, just kidding. No, but that would be great if it could be up for us to see them again to go over them. That's a lot of idioms to put in like three or four days. But I'm glad we finally got the chance to go over all of them. And, I'm pretty excited for our skit on Friday! I'm sure I'll be nervous as all get out but it's going to be so much fun.

We did our skits for April's class just a little while ago. I feel like I did so horrible on that. Rachel, please forgive me for not catching things the first time. I'm surprised you weren't just like screw this, give me another interpreter. Your patience was greatly appreciated. And Charlie, thanks for not letting me hyperventilate. I thought you were going to have to get me a paper bag. Yeah, April, I don't know why but I was so nervous. AND THEN...I was still nervous when all I had to do was read the script. Yeah, the reading part, I wasn't even signing. So, thanks for that for our final project. No, I'm glad we got to do another scenario though. It's good practice. Charlie! World peace and puppies! Or a baby on your hip, you know. Whichever.

I think we need to go ahead and plan a moment of silence or prayer or whatever on Friday for all of us going to practicum. Let us all bow our heads so we can survive and live to tell the tale...
