Was blind for 20 mins

Konbanwa~

;)

Yup, like title stated, I was blind for 20 mins - during the class just now.
Do not worry, it was an activity from my lecturer.
The lecturer asked us to pair up~ 2 people in a team, one pretended to be blind and another one get to choose whether to be dumb or deaf.
My friend suggested me to play the blind role, I just agreed ;)
We need to play the choosen roles for 20 minutes , walked around the college area.
Classroom is our finish line.

Experience

It was scary ;(
Especially, when you deal with staircases.
Even with our eyes open, we have to look down to watch our steps.
My friend dragged me into the staircase, she worried I cannot take care of myself if we entered elevator LOL!~
Oh oh, by the way, I been holding her hands ;) since I was not suppose to open my eyes.

As we were walking around the areas, my hearing sense became stronger.
I was able to listen to a lot of sounds.
The fountain from water, the musics came from a cafe, someone's chit-chatting and some bird chirping.
When comes to the quiet area (parking lot), I hold my friend's hand as tight as I could LOL......

Communication~

Since I played the blind role, my friend choosed the dumb role,~ lots of problem happened...=.= somehow we figured out how to communicate with each other.

Since I was able to talk, I kept asking her questions XD
If the answer is yes, she will tap my shoulder once.
If the answer is no, she will tap my shoulder twice.

Also, if there were obstacles in front of me, she will pressed my hand.

;)

I was lucky that I did not fell down.
My other classmate fell down ;( Poor her.

Some experiences ~

;( Well, I cannot see for 20 minutes.
At that moment, 20 minutes was like, forever.
I kept asking my friend " Are we there yet? " " 20 minutes already? "
I became worried.

Also, people teased you.
I heard a lot of laughter.
So many people laughed at us.
My friend said it was not our juniors, but the ADULTS
=.= Gosh, get a life, dear adults!!!!!!!!

Of course, if you met your juniors ;)
They teased too, but not in a mean way because they played before.
One of collegemate (from another class) asked me to "pusing" LOL!~
(I knew it was him after my friend told me in the class)

Any accidents?

AHAHA! I dunno the timing for elevator. So, I kept knock onto the elevator's doors.

Almost fell from the hump roads, curbs....etc

Oh, bumped into another team (my classmates)
She played the deaf role.
So she approached me and 'molest' me LOL!!!!!
D:
GOSH!
HAHAHAHAHA
I recognize her voice so ~ when the game over ~ I went to her for a revenge!
XD

So, that's about it.
After closing my eyes for 20 mins, I was feeling so tired =_=
After this activity, we wrote down our experiences and submit it to the lecturer before we leave the classroom.
That was the purpose for this activity.

;) To experience the goods and bads if you are blind,deaf or dumb.
Whole classmates agreed that the blind role is the hardest.
;(

I do agree.

Now, this makes me respect them more, not pity them.
Why?
Because they have the courage~
While I dun.
I am now also thankful for the god, for giving such perfect visions, voice and ability to listen.

It was challenging...~ ;)
