Another social outing

Last night was an awards night for staff and students at West Coast Institute where I teach. I was there supporting an amazing student of mine, Penny, and my gorgeous colleague, Carolyn who won her category award (pictured).


The night was lovely especially as I was sitting next to a lady who had a plastic ear drum. We spent the night saying "what?" and "huh?" and "pardon?" to each other. Only the type of conversation that deaf people have (those who don't sign), the hearing people got bored quickly. No matter, we knew what we were talking about!!!
