Send Me A Sign

One of these days i will sit.
I will sit and sit and sit, waiting for someone to send me a sign. A large directional arrow as to where i should go what i should do who i should hang with who i should leave behind and forget. One of these days it will come and I will ignore it. I will ignore it for a few seconds and then I'll ponder it's validity and then i will ignore it some more until i finally decide that I'll take it's path and hope that everyone i meet along it will be nice and friendly.
As i sit here tonight and type this im thinking about my friday that i spent at school. I took my anthropology test and felt pretty good about it while i left. I went to my communications class and said a funny speech about bad driving, I learned about stereotypes and how my T.A. is not triple x or Vin Diesel. Then I went to ASL where i decided i was going to minor in ASL and I went to talk to the main desk lady to speak to her about minoring. She told me to talk to the head of the department some Dr. or other. I left him a note because he wasn't in, with my email telling him i wanted to minor in ASL. Class went by fine after that I met Michelle(deaf) Don's(hearing) fiance she's really nice and she was very sweet about trying to get everyone to practice using their newly aqcuired asl skills. She was excited to see everyone working so hard to get things right and having fun with it. After class i wrote on the back of my paper to my professor that i decided to minor in asl. He was so happy and when i told him it was only because of him he said i was sweet and that he was happy to know he had inspired someone. When i got home from the trolley (after i was told by some random homeless that i was the prettiest girl in america) i checked my email.
The ASL doctorate guy told me that ASL wasn't offered as a minor and that it was a program that wouldn't be starting for a few years... I was crushed to say the least. I sent him back an email saying thanks for taking the time to respond wish i could help in some way. Then i sent an email to my professor telling him I was not allowed to minor in ASL and was very upset... he hasn't said anything at all. My day was ruined, then i had to go to work and work. it wasn't funn.

Saturday- also not fun. hung around my house all day then bought some new music worked on my speech for comm which is shaping up quite nicely if i say so myself and now im typing this. so... that's that. I believe i started at 9:23 and now i'm finished nearl forty minutes later.. jeez do i get distracted easily. :/

see ya tomorrow<3 natasha

  1. Oh, I'm sorry things are working out for you right now. Just because you can't minor in ASL doesn't mean you should give up. There are other ways to get involved. I'm proud that you're taking action and getting things done.

    Hope your weekend was more than swell. Love you Tata!!
