Hello! My name is Catherine! Cathy for short.
I am introducing myself to you and my new blog!
The reason why I am starting a new blog is because my life had been involved in the hearing world more than the deaf world. That means I didn't sign to communicate, I didn't go to deaf events a lot as I was more involved with hearing people. Just recently, I've discovered how much I missed the deaf world! I have decided to start signing again, (BSL was also my first language so I still remember some signs), and try to attend many deaf events as I can.
I attend a mainstream school with a deaf unit, but because I am very busy with my GCSE's, I hardly attend lessons in the deaf unit (deaf students at my school should have three hours per week but I only have one hour).
I am 16 in one week, so I am quite excited!
I have ten hour art exam coming up, so it is quite scary at the moment, especially when I am working on my art preparation at the moment but other than that, I am looking forward to it because I love art as I am very creative!
In this blog, it will contain different things about deafness plus advice about lifestyle like education, work and more! Also, I like to help my deaf friends at my school with their education as they are younger than me so I can tell them about my experiences and support them.
If you do have any questions, feel free to ask me!
