Hi, I'm Laurentia, Laura for friends, lazies, and lazy friends (and middle name Danae for school)...

Geeky 23yo girl, with a weird major, fake canadian.

This channel is, well, an odd change in blogging. And I feel I like it enough to actually own up to it, and quit blaming peer pressures.
I'll be essentially switching to captioned ASL and doing a clean start - well, except for that silly video (even if I make little sense and lots of pidgin :p), because a) I need practice and b) unlike the vlogs I just deleted, I can actually come back and watch them again, instead of just filming. I feel kinda stupid about it, promising captions I could never deliver (the transcripts that existed for two were not transcript but preliminary writing and I know how much I deviated in one of the two and thinking that it couldn't work, but it was all I could do), the denial was strong for years, along with a certain degree of shame, but things feel much nicer: admitting it was a big step, and learning to sign, in the end, was as practical as it felt like an emancipating statement. And I'm thankful for the friends who contributed the heaviest to it. Thanks guys :p
