I decided to do an introduction vlog now that my first year of classes are done. I took three 8-week classes at a local Deaf association. The classes met for 2 hours per week and we finished the blue "Signing Naturally" book. We are meeting once a week during the summer to "just chat" so we don't lose too much before the next class starts in September transcript: Hi, I'm Aaron! This is my first vlog. I am not Deaf, I am HoH. I am married and have two daughters, age 8 and 2. My wife is pregnant and we will have a new baby in about 3 weeks. No idea if it will be a boy or girl. I am excited! I grew up in CA, went to CSUF. I majored in chemistry, and also studied physics, math, and French. Now I know English, French, and learning sign for one year. I love movies (have huge TV), pool, darts, photography.

My deaf friend that I go out with a lot only points to his ear and makes the writing gesture without any eye contact with the hearing person. My friend has excellent and very understandable speech and lipreading skills, just like me, but never uses it. He never says the word "deaf," which I think he should. I've often wondered if he comes from the older generation where there is still a sense of shame about being deaf. He does not make eye contact with hearing people at all. It's very weird. I think his behavior confuses people so they don't understand clearly what the problem is and how to fix it.
I think it's very important to first communicate to a hearing person, especially a stranger, that you are deaf, and how you want to communicate with them.
