I'm Nicole Hernandez, 21 years old, my birthday is December 11. I have one brother whom is 18, deaf, and attending PCC. I don't only have siblings that are blood but I also have adopted siblings/ friends they adopted me as their older sister. I'm actually a Brunette with brown eyes with a little green sometimes. I like to dye my hair all colors but not black, green, blue, or pink. I love hanging out with my family and friends.
My brother James has had a hard life because of his deafness and I always had to watch out for him to make sure that no one decided that he would become a target for their pleasure. Even though growing up and having a love hate relationship I still love him. James is the reason I learned ASL (American Sign Language) because a lot of my family members don't know sign language so they can't communicate with him. This always made him sad and I didn't like that, so now that I do know some Sign Language and is able to communicate with him, he's happy. He and I always joke around in ASL and whenever someone in my family ask us what we're talking about we just laugh. I will always continue to look after him no matter how old he becomes or how far he lives, he will always have his older sister there to back him up.
