    My name is Olivia but everyone calls me Ollie. I was born deaf and it’s something I struggle with. I get good grades and was able to get into college. I don’t have any “normal friends.” I am very kind but insecure. I hate being treated like an invalid. I want to experience normal college life. I have been sheltered by my parents all my life so I am naive. I have brown hair and green eyes. I use sign language mostly. I struggle at verbal communication. I am highly religious.
