Hello everyone! I hope your winter breaks were refreshing or your winter semesters went well.
I’m only taking 8 units this semester but I’m feeling good about them. One is about refining your English skills when interpreting, which I’m really curious about. I thumbed through the textbook and it’s lots of listening and recalling the audio tracks included along with critical thinking about what’s being said.
Which class are you guys looking forward to or even dreading?

So I just wanted to say that I'm really proud of myself. 4 out of my 5 classes posted our final grades today. I've recieved all A's, and I'm hoping that last grade is also an A. My cumulative GPA is a 3.5 and I'm so happy. My first year of college I earned nothing higher than a C. I even failed two classes. But I made them up and proved to myself that I can go this. Since that first year I've earned all A's and only 2 B's. Even with working 2 jobs this past semester, never sleeping past 6 a single day, being an officer in our super successful ASL Club, and dealing with my mother's sudden death, I did it. I was tired and sad and honestly went through a period of time where I didn't want to live, but I did it.
I know this sounds so dramatic for a measly 3.5 GPA, but that has been my goal since my first year, when my GPA was below a 2.0.
Mom, I know you'd be so proud of me. You'd take that screenshot of my grades and show them off to all of your friends at work like you used to do.
Sitting here seeing some Deaf people bashing Deaf U while others are praising it and me wanting to say my take but knowing I shouldn’t since I’m a hearing person not deep enough in the community
How’s school treating y’all? I really don’t want to lose this excitement I’m feeling for this semester.
I've noticed that since I've been in this major, that I have literally attached myself to pretty much any person who shares one thing in common with me.
Idk if I've been so deprived of human interaction (aside from my fiancé) or if I'm so scared of being alone.

Patiently waiting to go home Friday morning..
FDR's "Four Freedoms" Speech
is the speech I've chosen to do for my Interpreting class. Please just shoot me now. I don't think I realized just how much it would challenge my skill set. Welp! Here's to improving in all aspects of life!
TO ANY AND ALL ASL INTERPRETING MAJORS/DEAF COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT CAN HELP ME.
so for my introduction to interpreting class, we have a writing prompt. and i'm lacking in explanation and discussion for the first question. wondering if you guys have any input for it and for any Deaf Community members if you've noticed things when utilizing an interpreter?
much thanks!
writing prompt below:
1) We've seen from our class discussion that communication is a complex process. Knowing that messages from sender to receive can encounter a variety of barriers to clear expression and clear understanding, what is your prediction of how the insertion of a third party - an interpreter - will affect the communication process? What should an interpreter strive for as the go-between in the communication process? 2) Give an honest assessment of your own skills as a sender and receiver of messages in your L1. (Here are some questions to help you in your assessment: In general, how good are you at knowing what you intend to say and actually saying what you mean? How good are you at receiving messages as they were intended? What is the level of psychological noise or other types of noise you experience in processing messages?) Given this assessment of yourself, what things will you need to pay special attention to in your training and what can you do to start focusing on this now?
