First week of school...

So, yesterday was my first day back to school from two weeks ago
lol i had a bit of a break but i did summer school.

Anywhooo I had to get my friend's schedule changed to match mine because she is going to be my notetaker. So i told her i needed my schedule changed..well my friend talked more cuz there were soo many ppl i was kind of lost in the convo...newho i told her i am deaf/hoh and I need a notetaker and she stops me mid sentence and goes " WOW you speak SO well!" ..i was lke..ummm thanks and then she proceeds to ask me if i was born that way, and how it happened and was it recent and she threw in some great expressions and nods and was like wow..i think im losing my hearing too! i was like ook..and then my friend was lke well we are already late for class soo....and she was like ooo im so sidetracked..well do ur job maybe?
It was a very awkward situation.

And then..doom..accounting class ...I'm not a math person so when I saw that it was a guy teaching it I was iffy..and then I got there gave the teacher my student plan sheet and sat in the front row (comp lab) with 60 comps on (with the loud fans) and we find out he is a pacer..like not pace around in the front..i mean he paced the WHOLE room side to side, back to back, 360'd talked to the wall..and then he says "is my constant pacing bothering anyone?" i didn't want to say YES out loud so i nodded very non discreetly and I was like i can't hear you very well, did you read the paper i gave you? he was like No. I was like ook..nd he kept teaching didn't even glance at it..and at this point it was in front of him too...so i talked to him after and he was lke u and ur notetaker sit in the middle so hopefully you can catch me at all angles....So now i am super ancy about that class cuz not only am I going to have trouble cuz its math..but also cuz i can't hear anything..I am going for another hearing test aided and un-aided on friday to see how that is and I'm gonna ask for a volume boost and talk about possibly an ha for my left to be more "balanced"...

newhoooo thanks for listening guys
