Hi! Long time no see.

I just got back from the DeafNation Expo here in the Bay Area. It was nice. There were many people in attendance. Pretty crowded actually. It was hot in there too. Whoo! It’s a very popular event here in the Bay Area. People flood to Pleasenton, CA. It’s a nice place.

One thing that struck me today. I felt sort of like a celebrity. I’m not sure … Is that good? Positive? Negative? I don’t know. But I feel like a lot of people came up to me today saying, “Whoa! I know you! I know you! You’re a vlogger! I see you on DeafRead or DVTV!”

I felt touched. It was pretty neat. People wanted to take pictures with me. Some wanted to chat and others wanted to talk about vlogging and how I got involved and various things like that. I felt honored to share my stories. Wow.

It’s kind of a fun thing when you’re a vlogger. You put your face out there, all over the world and people begin to notice you and tell you they know who you are. Many people come up to me often. I’m never sure who they are as I don’t know them, but I smile, say hello, nice to meet you, shake their hands, etc. Whoo! It’s a very touching and humbling feeling.

Yeah. That.

Bye (ILY wave)

    Your celebrity experience sounds better than mine– I keep getting recognized as the “Milkshake Lady.”
