My Monday night has turned boring. Definitely having Bachelor blues. I’m super happy for the new couple but more excited for the new Bachelorette! I can’t wait to hear my husband groan through it and laugh again. It’s quite enjoyable watching him suffer through a “chick flick”. Okay enough of that. Can we talk aboutContinue reading “Highlights from New Orleans”

Hearing Aid Insecurities: Overcoming it
We all have dealt with body image insecurities growing up. But there’s another part of me that has been shaped by something else. I got called weirdo, a deaf-mute, foreigner, etc. “What’s wrong with your voice?” I used to have rocks and wood chips thrown at me during recess. “Why don’t you use sign languageContinue reading “Hearing Aid Insecurities: Overcoming it”

I get several questions from readers about my blog. • I’m here to advocate for deaf/HOH community, influencing others to gain perspective on deafness, show some of the daily struggles not only with deafness but in every day life. • I know what it feels like to be alone in a crazy diverse world. •Continue reading “About That Deaf Girl”
“Is That Mean?”
“Is that mean?” I always say no. Strangers often tell stories of their relatives with hearing loss. This particular one stood out to me the other day. A sweet lady shared with me how her grandma lost her hearing to scarlet fever at 5 years old. She received cochlear implant at 70 and proceed toContinue reading ““Is That Mean?””
Highlights from Nashville, TN
“I’ve been living on the wrong side of Memphis / I’m really breaking away this time / A full tank of gas and a ‘69 Tempest / Taking me to that Nashville sign.” I’ve definitely been living on the wrong side of town. This is a city like no other I’ve been to. From theContinue reading “Highlights from Nashville, TN”
Bittersweet
After announcing our big move, I found it quite harder to even fathom it. To be honest, I never saw myself moving to Texas. I never saw myself giving up life here. Especially my home. “It’s just a house.” Have you ever wanted something so much, you never thought you could have it. You neverContinue reading “Bittersweet”
Highlights from Lake Placid, New York
This trip was such a fun short weekend celebrating New Years with my family. We decided not to do Christmas gifts this year, only to pick a location, rent an Airbnb and spend quality family time. It was a great idea. We picked out Lake Placid based on my brother’s recommendation since they went lastContinue reading “Highlights from Lake Placid, New York”
Best of 2018
What a year it’s been. 2019 is finally here. I was recently in NY for a ski trip with my family celebrating the new year festivities. One night, we all sat together enjoying dinner, sharing laughs, stories, reminiscing on our past. I took a step back listening and observing how much we’ve all grown. IContinue reading “Best of 2018”
Being Deaf in a Hearing Family
I was often seen as favored out of my brother and sister. I often read lips of important figures telling others my mother pays too much attention to me. But wait. The jealously is over a hard-working single mother who threw all of her support, love, life lessons, attention in to raising me to beContinue reading “Being Deaf in a Hearing Family”
Favorite Eats in Downtown Leesburg
Leesburg is a really cute town that’s grown ever since we’ve moved to here about 5 years ago. There has been a lot of changes especially in Downtown Leesburg. Others call it Old Town Leesburg.
