This semester has definitely been a very interesting one.
I had signed up for 7 classes. (What was I thinking?) And I'm still passing all of them and this is the last week until Christmas break.
I was so glad that I could spend part the semester with my parents and my sister because in July I'll be opening a new chapter in my life and moving to a suburb of Boise, Idaho to attend Northwest Nazarene University.
The State Fair is always incredible :)
The trip to San Francisco was very interesting to say the least....we got a really good deal on the motel room...9th and mission...that area broke my heart. Homeless people sleeping on the sidewalk...I had to step over one guy who's legs were sticking out almost to the street. :'(
Yet, there's something about San Francisco, something that draws me there. Maybe it's the ocean that you can see from Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf. Maybe because I've been going there with my family since I was young.
Whatever it is....San Francisco is an awesomely broken place.
And may God be there for the people to reside, work and visit there. O;)
Life is one of those fragile things. Life mends, life heals.
Looking back on my crazy semester I can't help but think more about my relationships with my family and God rather than the interactions I've had this semester....although I do have a good friend now because of my Journalism class. :)
This semester I finished my Associate of Arts Degree for Deaf Studies...this week I'm finishing up my last required class Creative Sign and there are going to be some really good people I won't see anymore because our common goal is finishing.
I'm just glad that all these people that I'm come to befriend and trust are going out into the Deaf communities across America to help bridge the cap between the hearing and Deaf worlds.

Below is my favorite video from my semesters learning sign language. Enjoy! (It's a young woman preforming the theme song to "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" in ASL!)
