Rita’s expressive vlog

From my Hands to your Hearts…

American Sign Language ROCKS, because…

Posted by chillygurlz on July 9, 2008

There is musical parts mixed into this video…  This video is about, why is signing such a wonderful thing to have?  ASL is beautiful language.  why is signing important to us?  ASL is like music,  it a good exercise for ur hand and arm,  u know how some ppl say, “deaf ppl cannot feel or listen or enjoy music,” well other reason they are wrong,  some of us deafies can also play music in our mind, basically just making beats like, that why we deafies can dance cuz we think in our head about what music sounds like.  signing is very expressive and beautiful way of communicating…   You can sign in far distances from eachother and not bother anyone, cuz ur not yelling.   we can also chat in a quiet environment like library, movie theater, opera with sign, while hearies or non-signers cannot talk, they have to sit quiet while we signer can sign quietly during the movies, at the library and places like that.  Also can sign while your underwater in pools or ocean, since u cannot talk underwater.   those are good examples why signing is such a wonderful thing to have.  there are more good examples, feel free to comment your ideas…   suppose there was no signing for deafies, then we would just be “slient”,  some of us can talk but it is not easy to read lips from ppl.  we could write on note pad but then we would be wasting paper and killing more trees if pad and pen was our only source of communicating.    for me, with my hearing aid on, i can talk ok but when i take off my hearing aid, i find it harder to talk.  ASL ROCKS, ASL BEAUTIFUL…  thanks for watching my vlog…
