Okay, so last weekend I learned about sign language, and the challenge was how to remember it. It was difficult to memorize the many signs, but I practiced often, like saying thank you, my name, goodbye, yes, and introducing myself. I learned about that, and I feel really grateful because I know some sign language, and it is so impactful for me. I really like it and love it because I can use it when I go to school for SLB. I really want to learn more about sign language because last week I only learned for about two hours, and there are many signs. So, I want to learn more about sign language next time, and hopefully, I can learn with my friends and with professionals as well. This way, I can understand better what sign language is and how much more I want to learn. Overall, this experience has motivated me to continue my journey in learning sign language and to connect with others who use it.
