About Me

Well what can I say about myself? I am starting my second year of college. I am going to get my associates degree in American Sign Language and get a certificate in interpreting. I have been interested in learning Sign Language since my freshman year in high school. Taking it that year with the BEST teacher EVER I fell in love with it!!!! I then decided that I wanted to further my education in Sign Language when I go to college. A little about me and my life I guess is really what people want to know so here it goes....... I am a military brat. My dad has been in the Air Force for almost 20 years so he is getting ready to retire soon. I have lived all over I guess you could say. We lived in Va, NC, Fl and now San Antonio. I am very proud of the military, my dad and what he does putting himself out there and fighting for our coutry. I have a little brother, 17 years old. He is a junior in high school. He is a BRAIN!!, let me tell ya that kid don't have to study to make A's. I wish I got those brains but unfortunately I have to study. I was born with a "disability" but that doesn't get me down. I have always been a very strong person. Life is to short to sweat the small stuff. Yes there are some things I can't do or are a little harder for me to do but I try my best. I also have very supportive parents, and a wonderful brother that have always been there for me. My parents really have my upmost respect though. They have seen it all, me at my best times and me at my worst. Thankfully they have been strong for me and encourage me to be the best I can. If it wasn't for them I don't know what I would do. My brother too, he helps me with alot! Of course we don't always get along but he knows I love him and I know he loves me too. As we get older I'm sure that we will have a better relationship. I'm so thankful for him. Along with family, my friends are a huge part of my life. I have met alot of people moving from place to place, school to school. Alot of my friends have become like family too me. I don't know what I would do without them either. I guess that's all I can say about me. If you would like to know more then IM me at RachDeniece3.
