In ASL, it doesn't matter if you're right or left handed, you can do things with either hand. Because I'm left handed, I do things in a mirror image of the person I'm imitating. Very convenient.
Lige was called as one of our Sacrament meeting song leaders, and his first time song-leading is next week. This evening, he was practicing his songs, and he asked me to be "the congregation" for him. Lige is also left handed.
It was HORRIBLE! I don't know how to follow someone else in non-mirroring mode! I was signing all sorts of weird stuff :)
We'll see if everyone else thinks it's weird, too...or if they just enjoy getting to mirror the leader.
