DFI Online Magazine--Senior Edition

In my dream, I have a friend called Bob Jolla and he and I are good at sign language. Bob told me, "Let's go to the sign language tournament." Then I said, "Now play a signing game then."

Bob say, "Well, you sit face to face with referee and that person in front of you say a word and you know it you keep going back and forth but if you don't know the word you're disqualified, but you can think the word in 2 minutes and you don't get it you out if you keep going."

I say, "So that's just like the movie 'Over the Top' "

Then Bob say, "But no it's not. It's lot different than that because its sign language."

Then Bob and I went and then at 2 hours we signed in 5 minutes later. We heard Bob and Michael then we went up and face to face and referee say, "No swearing signs, no names or fingerspelling words and only words. If I see fingerspelling, you are disqualified and you have 2 minutes to think go on:

B horse

M sign

M pig

B sign

B orange juice

M sign

M robot

B sign

B person

M sign

M 50

B sorry

M sign

M watermelon

B bee.

Bob, you lose. See the game can be longer for people in real life for deaf, hard of hearing, or lost of hearing and all people should know about the new term for the word.

Punxsy Spirit

I want to be a story writer for the Punxsy Spirit newspaper and I just need all these job to support myself to live in a house so even pay for hay and feed for horse.

I'm going to do it for two year as two times and I love it, meeting I am happy to meet new people as deaf but I totally like signing back and forth together. I love to make deaf friends so they can come to my house and we can sign together. I am happy for what I do.

A little deaf boy that knows sign language very well, this hearing boy went up to him and hit him and push him down and stole the boy's money for his lunch and took off running then a young age girl of his age skinny, brown hair, and she say, "Are you okay?" Then the boy sign, "What, oh you are deaf okay."
Then she sign, "What is your name?"
"Jamie Luke, what's yours?"
"Lusie Srumie."

Then Lusie help Jamie up and they walk to school signing together. Then on the way Lusie look at the tree. The hearing boy was in the tree. He said, "You should not walk with this dumb deaf boy." Then Jamie walk to him and sign, "If you won't be so mean you be on." Then Jamie punched the boy. Then Lusie sign, "Let's go, Jamie, he's stupid." Then Jamie and Lusie went to school. Mr. Zeemar signed, "Did you punch Jerrod in his face?"

Then Lusie say he was protecting himself from Jerrod because Jerrod was going after Jamie and yes, Jamie punched Jerrod.

Well, you two know the rules. Jamie have to be detention for a half an hour for hitting Jerrod. Then Lusie sign, "Jamie, I'll see you soon." Then she kissed him.

After school Lusie and Jamie walk to the park and site on the branch and fall in love together.
