   Smile and nod and they will go away
When you're talking to someone and you can't hear them just smile and nod and they will go away. I have slight hearing problems so when I'm in a crowd I can't hear, or certain accents I can't hear, or when someone talkes really fast I can't hear. I had a meeting in the library with a girl from my school to do a report. I couldn't hear a word she was saying, so I basically agreed with everything she said and we ended up doing a very weird report. Oh, well! I hate not being able to hear her when she thinks I can. Argh! It's worse with teachers. I had a teacher with a monotone voice and I had to transfer out because I couldn't hear a word he said! Sometimes my friends will get really excited and talk really fast about what they're excited about and I cannot for the life of me figure out why they're so excited! So later they'll talk about it as if I knew and I'll be all interested and ask them questions to catch back up. Ack! It's not easy. I don't want to be rude and tell them to slow down or ask if we can talk in a quiet area. Any suggestions? Better yet! Does anyone have a translator that I can just read? I can read really fast so it would work very nicely for me. I guess I'm done ranting. Thank you for being so patient and hearing me out. Dang it! HEAR me?! I give up!
