[NFB-Braille-Discussion] World braille day

[Jasmyn Po]

Me and my favorite device to write Braille with Braille is the slate and stylus and the Braille writer. I like to sleep and stylus because I could take it to places like college, the doctor's office , Etc along with some Braille paper and practice. Every time I go to college, my bookbag has my slate and stylus and a folder full of Braille paper along with a pair of sleep shades. I also bring one of my braille books to read on my free time before class or going to work. Because of this I've improved my Braille skills. I like using my Braille writer for making cards for my friends who are blind and practice as well when I'm at home. What makes my college even blind friendly is there is Braille on the bathrooms, the classroom numbers , the elevator, the library, and the vending machine. This is great practice with Braille when I can't write it at school. I try to use every opportunity to improve my Braille skills.

introduced an electric Perkins I don't know about. Electric braillewriters
are louder, and you don't have to push as hard on the keys. I personally
don't like them because if you need to write on plastic and press harder,
the electric brailler does not allow that.

I learned braille when I was around 2 or 3 years old. Thanks to the recent
lower-cost braille displays like the orbit reader20, I can participate more
fully in my community by reading in church, thanks to braille. And next
month when I get the braille me display, with its cursor router buttons,
I'll be able to edit easier and quicker with the computer and iPod touch.
After that when I get the electric perkins brailler, that will allow me to
write braille even faster, on paper, than I can with the standard manual
perkins brailler. I am looking forward to having both of those. And last,
I'll be saving up for duxbury braille translator and a braille buddy
embosser so I can get documents and stuff from my computer into paper
braille if I wish, or transcribe small things for people if needed. I've had
my standard perkins brailler since 1987 and it still works great.
