The Weekend!

Hey for the weekend! I have some decsions to make...tonight I have no idea what i will be doing besides catching up on some reading maybe. But Sat. night...wow there's a lot happening! There will be a silent dinner at the Concorde Mall near Charlotte, Deaf Bowling Night at Morganton I hear...and my RA has planned a dance night in the hall, she lives right next to me...so it's either stay up listining to music, or stay up talking to Deaf people somewhere in NC. I would go to the library but it closes at 5:00pm on Saterdays.
I really don't know what to talk about...whoever is reading this (i.e. my mom, and or Stephen...etc.) maybe yall can ask questions? Prompts are always useful when writing as I read recentally in my English book. I will do my best to anwser truthfully, or to be more honest right now...it might be somewhat censored. ;-) I can see my mom's face right now...cringing in agony. Don't worry about me momma...I am still the same old boring me. nothing is happening around here, or atleast i don't hang with the people who would know what was happening.
Well I guess I talk to yall later...oh and a round of applause for the baby Newell! yeehaw! :-)

ASL stuff

Just doing a quick post before I head to the Deaf club meeting at 4:00. Intrestingly enough most of the Deaf Club is ASL majors...not really Deaf. However, most of the leaders are the few Deaf students on campus. Also in GWU's little Deaf world today...Tonight is the first "Silent Dinner" at the Caf. Somehow they expect us all to be able to fit at one table and sign. There is a lot of ASL majors here...so I am hoping we will use this little side room off on the side of the caf. Not actually sit in the caf itself. Because it gets very noisey. Even though GWU is not the biggest college in America it still a whole lot bigger then Evangel. Well I gotta go, Hope everybody in KY is doing good. And I hope yall's weather is better over there, cause for the past few days it's rained sometime or another. As a matter of fact I think I will be walking in the rain to the Deaf Club meeting. Well...bye and talk to yall later! :-)

Gardner-Webb Uni

Hi, I really am not a big poster...obviously. However, I wanted to let all my friends and family that I am still alive. GWU has been a very unique experience thus far. Some interesting information: I have 6 classes, English 101, ASL 201, Intro to Deaf Culture, English Processing for Interpreting, Honors Art Survey, and Honors Uni 101. (Uni 101 is a class every fresh person has to take, sorta a prepare you for college kind of class...) If you don't understand why it says honors...that's cause i was accepted into the honors program here at GWU.
I was elected a freshman class senator for the SGA. There are only 3 of them. I liked the odds better then trying for president, since there is only one of them.
it's kind of odd being in ASL 201 since all my classmates are sophomores, but it's okay, eventually i will have classes only with other ASL majors.
Been making a lot of friends, that was kind of one of the things you have to do to become elected, make friends, so that way your new found friends vote for you. the catch was...we only had one day to campaign. yep...so that's about it. i will try to keep y'all updated some more from Boiling Springs, NC.
