In a Nutshell

Wow, it has been a very long time since I've blogged.  I was going to try to update a little bit over the summer break, but got too lazy. =.=

I can't believe that four years have passed by and UCSD is over!  Well, for the most part anyways...I'm making up a GE class at Mesa to transfer back to UCSD because I was stupid and looked at the wrong class code and took the wrong class.  But I'm grateful that I still got to walk in the commencement ceremony and that the ASL interpreting program at Mesa doesn't require me to have a bachelors degree to continue in the program.

Working at the UCSD Cancer Center in Deaf Community Outreach this past year has been an awesome experience.  I had a great boss who was very encouraging and a team of Deaf colleagues who taught me new signs and corrected me when I was signing wrong.  I loved working there and cherish all the relationships that I've established there.  I going to miss working there, but hopefully I'll get to go back and work with them again some time in the future.

During this summer, I also worked as an ASL tutor for the UCSD Trio Summer Residential Program.  It was only 5 weeks.  But it's so much fun to inspire others to learn ASL and about Deaf culture.  It's always exciting to see others with the same passion.  God has been so gracious to provide these two jobs for me to gain experience in signing and financial support.  I wasn't very eager in looking for jobs and did not prepare for the interviews well.  But God provided so many different opportunities for me to learn more ASL and to network with people in the Deaf community all at the same time.    

I guess that's all for now, more updates to come...before I forget them. =)
