| A) Formal clothes, usually solid black unless told otherwise is what I remember from similar events. B) Act reserved. It is not a social gathering for fun, and your behavior should reflect the serious occasion. C) It's best to say less, especially if you are unsure. "I am sorry for your loss" is per... |

As far as things are going, I'm not sure if I'll ever live on my own. As far as majors, I've not a clue. I can do math pretty well, as well as chemistry. My main lo... |

| Fire Drills Suck. My school is really good about warning me when they plan a fire drill. Cause I completely freak out. But with warning I can get earplugs in and things aren't so bad. This year, we've got a really screwy system and it randomly goes off ALL the time. We've had probably 30+ this schoo... |

We get lunch and dinner breaks but I can't drive so I guess I'll pack a lunch & dinner. I, being the band geek I am, am really excited. At my school we march... |

| That's pretty cool. I had to make up a lot of signs with my friends so I could do signs that reminded them of the words and so they could understnad what I wanted to say. Now in real ASL I'm gonna have to reteach my friends these correct signs. As for Latin, I find it pretty easy. At least Latin 1 a... |

I have trouble understanding the accent that goes with the language. I took Spanish and hated it. Now I take Latin (a written language!) and American Sign Language. I'm loving the ASL. I always hated oral tests in Spanish.
Have any other Aspies learned ASL? |
