Summary:
What? I am going home next week? I am done with my first semester just like that? No way. This semester had so much events going on, so maybe it does make sense that it flashed right before my eyes. I remember having a countdown with my friends back home for the day I will be leaving to Gallaudet University. I remember how terrified I was. I did not want to go to Gallaudet University to be honest, I was too scared. I did not know what to expect and I felt that I would end up alone at Gallaudet University. I cried several times before going to Gallaudet University, and my mom kept on saying “Trust me, you will end up loving Gallaudet.” And I did not believe her. But damn, how right she was. I love this place. I have experienced different things, I have went to house parties, I have had hard classes, I pulled an all-nighter, I made new friends, and so so so much more. I just would not trade any experience for the experience I had with my first semester at Gallaudet University.
Response:
I must be dreaming, I am leaving Gallaudet University in a week? My first semester I done just like that? I am pretty much half way done with my freshman year? Sheeesh. Yes, I must be dreaming. What a semester it has been for me, such a whirlwind. I am so lucky to be at the right place, and I am curious what the future here will bring me….
Gallaudet University, second semester.. here I come ☺

Learning Experience #9
Summary:
You know, as you have seen in your freshman classes- a lot of us have colored hair. You may wonder why, well we are shaving our hair on January 29, 2009. It is called “Bald Day” and has been a tradition at Gallaudet University for many years. I have dyed my hair to different colors basically to damage my hair and then shave it all off. I actually haven’t dyed my hair in seventeen years, my parents had that rule where I can not dye my hair till the day I graduate. I graduated and then went onto to Gallaudet University and dyed my hair for the first time, I dyed my hair to auburn red. I loved it! I did not want to dye it because I felt that it suited me and it was “my color”. I had to dye again anyway because of course, I want to shave my hair. I dyed my hair to a darker shade of red, and it was still pretty cool- I loved it. I took a risk with the next dye, because I dyed my hair blonde. Oh my god, I hated myself in blonde hair! I dyed my hair quickly to neon blue and pink bangs. I liked it since it was combination of my two favorite colors. I dyed my hair purple next, and it did suit me pretty well and then I decided to spilt my hair in two parts and bleached one part on the bottom. I dyed teal color over it and got pretty cool result. That is my current color, and I will cut my hair very soon and dye it to yellow or orange, that I have not decided yet.
Response:
I love dyeing my hair! It is actually cool to see what color I suit with the best, and it has been a fun process. I honestly have to admit that I can not wait till I am bald because my hair is already damaged badly! It does not feel healthy, but basically I do not care because I hate my hair anyway and am looking forward to being one kickass bald chick ;).

Learning Experience #8
Summary: On a Friday night, a week after my birthday, my friends hosted a surprise party for me. My bestfriend who is still a senior at Maryland School for the deaf surprised me and came for my party. I had fun that night and then next morning, she was like why don’t you just come home earlier for thanksgiving break since I did not have to go to classes on Monday and Tuesday, I agreed and went home. My parents did not expect me at home so it was nice surprising them at home. I stayed home for five days and had a blast with my family for thanksgiving. I am really thankful that I have my family so it was nice celebrating it. It was so weird when I had to leave, I did not want to leave at all but on Sunday, I packed up and went back to Gallyland.
Response:
This year is the first year that I went home for thanksgiving break, not already being at home. I have been away from home for almost five months, beside several weekends where I just went home for the weekend. I am able to do that since I live only forty-five minutes away. It was so surreal packing and getting ready to go home, I have never once did that before. It is always packing at home and going somewhere for me, but it is like I am leaving home to go my real home. It is really weird but I had a blast being home and I already cant wait for winter break where I will be staying home for four weeks!
