[Transcript]

I have been signing SgSL for 21 years (my apologies, should be 11 years... counted my number of years in Singapore instead hahahahahahaha.) years, and I am proud of SgSL. I am proud of being Deaf. I have many friends from all over the world allowing me to sign with everyone!

International Day of Sign Languages (IDSL) has been adopted by the United Nations General Assembly [forgot to say - and will be celebrated annually on 23 September beginning in 2018.] The objective of the IDSL is to raise awareness on sign languages and strengthen the status about sign languages.

Now I want to show my nickname in literature - H-E-Y. You all know I used to work as an SgSL illustrator, so I will show my character. Ready?

[SgSL Literature]

What is the story about? I will explain. Do you notice that H, E and Y have 5 similar handshapes each?

H - draw
H - increase
H - …
H - shit
H - hurry

E - wipe out sweat
E - frustrated
E - stressed
E - push aside
E - enough

Y - backpack
Y - fly
Y - wander about
Y - play
Y - fall down

Why do I fall down? I love travelling but every time I travel, I always fall down! So I’m famous for falling down.

Thank you.
