Ryan: Thanks so much for sharing the wonderful tips with me, Lauren. Lauren, you are very professional, friendly, and gorgeous in your vlog. If I try my own vlog, I understand that I should be myself, but I will be not good as you. I am more shy and quiet than you . And also, your ASL is 100 times better than mine. Thumbs up!!! Have a great weekend, Lauren!

Matt: Hat off to you for signing fluently and articulately. I wonder if you have another secret that you are withholding from us? Did you use teleprompter or "scrpt" to help you remember what to sign exactly during your vlogging? ;-) MBJ
