Since I'm hearing impaired, I thought I'd like to share this exciting news with you guys! :) I am going to sign the National Anthem with a couple of hearing impaired/deaf/ASL students. And, yes I am very, very excited to sign the National Anthem - I am doing 3 games! Penn State, Bowling Green, and Indiana. First game is THIS SATURDAY against Penn State! I am quite nervous, though to stand on the field in front of what, 105,000 people, depends on the attendance of the crowd, but still.. It's gonna be AMAZING and something I will never forget in my life as I get older. :) I will have to share pictures, for sure. I thought you guys might like this happy news from me. This is why I picked OSU - it's made me a happier person, and I am currently pretty proud of where I am at right now.

GAWD, Tim..I may just take back the "L" word I bestowed on you! I'm a PA girl, born and bred and altho I'm not a football fan, my loyalty is the PENN STATE! Is this gonna ruin our "relationship"? :p

Rach..BIG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I'M SO EXCITED FOR YOU! BIG HUGS OF HAPPINESS !!!

Wow, that is an honor! My nephew attends Ohio State (going for an advanced degree) and my neighbor must have as well, because each time there is a game, he flies the school flag outside his home. Please do make sure you get some pictures. We would love to see commemoration of this occasion.
