3rd S-E-E Signing Class Session + Extreme Tiredness

Everyday, even though I am tired, for some odd reason, driving either a.) Keeps me alert. or b.) Wakes me up so I am alert. It's weird... It gets weirder. During my classes after 10 a.m., I was so unbelievably tired. I don't know if it was a lecture in class or just me not getting enough sleep, but I fell asleep at least 8 times today.

Although, it gets even weirder because during class I may have yawned and in the car too, but I didn't doze off during S-E-E signing. I was completely awake and attentive. It's good that I was awake too because we learned so many new signs for words. Mainly they were "people" signs. Basically signs for people such as those in a person's family: mother, father, daughter, granddaughter, grandson, son, brother, sister, baby, and much more. Other "people" words that are going to be so useful are: people, person, human, teacher, miss, mr., mrs., and a ton more. There were at least 60 words, but of course, I have always had a lot of fun.

The teacher is really great. She's not boring, makes us laugh, a great teacher, and so helpful. Today she was able to give the class (and just a small number of students) information on the sign books (there is a big one [which I am planning to borrow from my senior project mentor {which by the way, thank you so much!}] and a small one that lies flat [which I am hoping to purchase}) and getting college credit. The teacher says that it is 45 bucks if it is cumulative (I think meaning I take more than one class). It's a plus too because it's cheaper, and I am planning to take more anyway. Like I said, she is an awesome teacher. Oh, but back to the book, I want the small one mainly because it lays flat. Haha, but back to the college credit again, that reminds me I have to remind her to get the papers so that I can have permission to take the class and get credit for it from my parents, the principal, and the counselor. Not to mention she answered all of my questions too. I feel so welcome to the class. I did forget to tell her that I am taking the class all because of my senior project mentor.

Other than that, the class is great, I am learning a lot, and I am definitely enjoying it all.

I can't wait until next week!
