More on the Sign Language Course

Well the sign language course is going well. Today my fellow students and I sat through a 2.5 hour class only signing, no speech. In the break we all talked like crazy and then when the class started again, back to signing only. I started having personality confusion problems, I'm deaf, I'm hearing, I'm deaf, I'm hearing ........... what I am? Can I be both? Is having a cochlear implant technically "hearing"?  I think I might be hearing aided or maybe deaf/hearing or maybe having an identity crisis. Anyway, for those who would like a basic introduction to Australian sign, here is a video. I'm speaking so you know what I'm signing. Have a go!
