I do not get the award from my many mistakes from hearing the low volume tests and not raising my hands if I hear the low volume with my both hearing aids from my 2 boxes on! Other students did get the lollypops and candies but not me!ASL Risenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00212961812016204278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6763915610096703363.post-63776456479000985742007-08-29T15:36:00.000-04:002007-08-29T15:36:00.000-04:00Cindy, you're not alone in the tinnitus and hearin...Cindy, you're not alone in the tinnitus and hearing test thing.

Believe me, I have tried. ;) <BR/><BR/>There was one time I completely forgot to raise my hand. I was way too occupied staring at that scary monkey with cymbals sitting on the shelf in the booth, thinking it'd come alive banging away on cymbals freaking me out. I hate that thing! <BR/><BR/>I remember asking my mom what was the point of taking a hearing test again after I had already done it twice that year. It was not like I'd regain my hearing (I never had it really.....I was born deaf) overnight. <BR/><BR/>I despite the audiometry tone section of the hearing test. The audiologist asked me to raise my hand every time I heard a beep or any tone. After few seconds, my ears would start ringing and I had a hard time determining whether the noise was from the audiologist's beeps or ringing/buzzing from my ears! I even raised my hand when the audiologist never done anything lol, thanks to the constant ringing/buzzing noises in my ears.<BR/><BR/>You made me laugh about the words section. Hotdog, cowboy, icecream, baseball, and cupcake. Heck, you can even see the audiologist saying the word behind her hand or a piece of paper. I could repeat the words back easily just because I could read audiologist's facial expressions. ;) She finally got smart and turned around to face away from me....grrrr! ;) <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing this. It sure brought back memories.Def Fresh Meathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07173728325862510704noreply@blogger.com
