well , i decided to learn because of my verbal communication issues !
im starting a new college course this september & id like to have at least a rudimentary grasp on bsl by then so that when i go non-verbal i can still be involved , well , at least a little bit since i doubt anyone else will know any bsl
either way its a new language & maybe this time i will actually be able to stick with it since its a language i need in my day-to-day life ( as long as the non-manual skills needed to learn dont screw me over first haha ! )
