ASL: Pizza Party & UWM Drag Show


Hello Everyone!

We have had an amazing start to the semester! We kicked things off with a pizza party on February 15th to get everyone out in the lounge and excited for the rest of the year. What I didn't know was that another RA and a few of the residents hijacked the event and threw me a surprise birthday party. They had nearly 100 balloons and there were streamers everywhere. It was so cute and we all had a lot of fun! 

Then on February 24th we went to The UWM Annual Drag Show! I planned ahead and reserved seats for the LLC near the front by the interpreters so that the floor could see what show interpreters are like and if that is a career choice they would like to look into. The show was spectacular and although we had to wait an hour and a half for the shuttle on the way back it flew by. 

Every spring the ASL LLC hosts a huge event called See What I'm Signing. This year it will take place on April 11th. Right now all of our efforts are going into planning that event and the residents are looking forward to volunteering and showing University Housing what the ASL LLC is all about. 



Surprise party and pizza!



The cake! The babies are on there because they thought it was creepy and hilarious (It was).

The video is of one of the interpreters at the Drag Show. Look at the facial expression and attitude added into the interpretation of the song!
