i got to attend this FSL seminar last month and it was cool. worth taking an absence from work. attending something that you firmly believe in. that's amazing, eh? i learned a ton of things as well. for the ignorant(hehehe) FSL is Filipino Sign Language and i firmly believe it is the natural language of the Deaf (well, it really actually is) and it's till growing, being researched. i am glad to be a part of this seminar. it was illuminating, inspiring and truly just awesome. the lectures were interesting and it just made me wonder how long SAID will catch up to what i have just discovered -- that FSL should play a major part of the Deaf education.... and not a minor one. that's still a long way ahead, i think. but i hope they give it a shot.
