Being at RIT, I try my best to pick up as much ASL as I can so I can communicate effectively with deaf and hard-of-hearing students. I frequently watch the interpreters in my classes to the point where the interpreters hink that I am a deaf student (at the beginning of the quarter's classes) or that I am an interpreting major. Truth is, I just like watching. It can give a visual representation along with listening.
In addition to watching interpreters, taking ASL classes I also like to watch ASL Music Videos. Thanks to Meghan Lima, I've been able to experience an interpreter, Kelly Greer on YouTube who is absolutely fantastic! She many music videos on her channel such as "Grenade" by Bruno Mars and "Rolling in the Deep" by Adele (featured below).

CHICKEN. WING. DIP.
FOOTBALL. GO BLUE TEAM!
So I really don't know much about football. What I do know, it that I love the commercials and the food associated with it. All of the pizza, chicken wings, and chicken wing dip is enough to make me buy Tums in bulk for the next month and a half. But what can I say? It's certainly too delicious to pass up.
Because Chicken Wing Dip is mine and my boyfriend's favorite dish, we decided to experiment with the recipe and created our own!
Here is my all time favorite Chicken Wing Dip recipe for your Super Bowl Party:
1 bottle (12oz) of Hot Sauce
1 bottle (16oz) of Blue Cheese Dressing
8 oz of Sour Cream
4-8 medium sized chicken breasts (depending on how much chicken you want in your dip, I normally go for 8)
2 bags (8 cups) of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
2 cans of Refried Beans
4 eggs
(Are you starting to see why I have so much heartburn?)
1) Cut up chicken breasts into smaller pieces and coat with egg yolk
2) Cook chicken thoroughly
3) Mix Hot Sauce, Blue Cheese Dressing, Sour Cream, Cheese and Refriend Beans together
4) Stir in the chicken and place in a 8x10 cooking dish
5) Bake in oven for 40 mins at 350 degrees
Bam! Enjoy your delicious Chicken Wing Dip with chips!

The Vow
Normally, I absolutely love chick flicks and "The Vow" isn't any different except for the fact that I cannot wait for it to come to theaters! I'm typically a person who can wait for a good movie to come out of theaters but this one is an exception!
"The Vow" is a classic,based on real life, love story that follows the lives of Paige (Rachel McAdams) and Leo (Channing Tatum) who begin as a newlywed couple that fall victim to a tragic car accident that leaves Paige with severe memory loss, remembering nothing of Leo. Leo, in turn, vows to win her affections and rekindle their romance.
When I first saw the movie I thought that it was a Nicholas Sparks movie that I had missed the book of (how could you not associate Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum in a love story to Nicholas Sparks?!) but I was completely wrong but excited none-the-less. I have high expectations for this movie and I'm sure it won't disappoint.
From a marketing standpoint "The Vow" has done an excellent job. In addition to the website, "The Vow" also has a Facebook that is constantly updated, a Twitter page, YouTube, and has partnered with Parade Design engagement rings to name a few of the activities. All are very well maintained and managed! Not to mention the paired advertisements now have me looking at Parade Design engagements rings...
"The Vow" opens everywhere in theaters February 10th, just in time for Valentine's Day!
I'll be there, will you?
