Sam's Hearing Life: GPS Navigation System
http://samshearinglife.blogspot.com/2008/09/gps-navigation-system.html
September 3, 2008. Ever since my best friend got in a bad car accident (don't worry - she's doing great now) because she was looking at a map trying to figure out where she was going, I am VERY thankful that I can hear my portable Navigation System telling me when to turn and where I'm going. Especially since I have really really really bad sense of direction! But I gotta say, this thing DEFINITELY comes in handy. it's also a great feeling knowing I'll always be able to find my way home! I would like to ...

Sam's Hearing Life: Strobe Lights
http://samshearinglife.blogspot.com/2008/09/strobe-lights.html
September 8, 2008. They just installed some Strobe Lights in my dorm and also in the bathroom for in case if there is a fire. The guys that installed it, tested it out to show me how it works. So basically when the smoke alarm goes off, the strobe light will make a really loud noise and flash a really bright light until the fire alarm goes off. So now, not only will you hear the normal smoke alarm noise, you'll also hear the strobe light blaring and see it flashing a really bright light. I enjoy mentorin...

October 10, 2008. But even though Berry and Rome seems to be a safe and "homey" campus, it was still kinda freaky. I immediately thought about those stories you hear on other campuses about people disappearing and what-not.

Sam's Hearing Life: Living Apartment Style...
http://samshearinglife.blogspot.com/2009/01/living-apartment-style.html
January 3, 2009. I always laughed when people would complain about how they could hear their neighbors when they lived in apartments because I never really thought I would have to worry about it. I never really thought it would bother me because at night I would just take my hearing equipment off and I wouldn't hear anything. It was so annoying when I would be reading or just hanging out there when every ten minutes I'd hear someone honk their horn or hear the police or ambulance go by! I enjoy mentoring...

In the “Resources”. The Auditory Verbal Center. So dep...
