Siti Nur Lathifah yang akrab disapa Ifa, Siswa kelas XII Sekolah Menengah Luar Biasa (SMLB) Negeri Semarang itu, belum lama ini mendapat juara III lomba merias dan modeling. Saat mengikuti Festival dan Lomba Seni Siswa Nasional PK-LK Pendidikan Menengah di Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB).
Sepintas tak ada yang mengira jika anak bungsu dari empat bersaudara pasangan Mulyono dan Munawaroh ini tuna rungu. Memiliki paras cantik dan tutur kata yang lembut, seakan menghipnotis siapa saja yang bertemu Ifa.
Ada semangat luar biasa yang dimiliki dara berkulit putih dengan tinggi 166 cm ini. Gadis yang lahir 16 April 1994 ini sangat berbakat, bahkan beberapa kali menjuarai lomba baik di bidang akademik maupun non akademik. Ifa tinggal bertiga bersama orang tuanya, di rumah sederhana nan sempit. Tepatnya di Jalan Medoho Raya No 98.
Untuk sampai di rumah berdinding papan itu, mesti memasuki gang sempit yang lebarnya hanya muat satu sepeda motor. Dari luar, rumah itu terlihat tua nan lapuk dengan atap genting yang tak sempurna lagi.
Meski begitu, di balik keterbatasan ekonomi inilah Ifa tumbuh menjadi gadis periang dan berprestasi. Ayah Ifa bekerja sebagai tukang kebun, sedangkan ibunya buruh sablon. Menurut Munawaroh, bakat Ifa sudah kentara sejak kelas 3 SD dengan keluar sebagai juara III lomba Sibi.
Sebagai orang tua, yang bisa dilakukan Munawaroh sebatas mendorong agar Ifa lebih berprestasi. Benar adanya, prestasi gadis yang bercita-cita ingin menjadi model itu pun kian cemerlang ketika duduk di bangku SMLB (setara SMA).
Di NTB, Ifa mewakili provinsi maju sebagai peserta lomba merias dan modeling pada Festival dan Lomba Seni Siswa Nasional PK-LK Pendidikan Menengah yang diikuti 33 peserta se-Indonesia. Dari lomba tersebut, Ifa mendapat pengalaman berharga. Meski ada iming-iming bisa keluar sebagai juara I, ia tidak ingin melepas jilbabnya.

REMEMBER - This does NOT apply to all hearing people. I don't want you all jumping to conclusions because it will prove my point valid that you cannot read or listen carefully. I never said we were better than other disabilities as the only thing we can't do is hear but we still get treated like an outcast compared to other disabilities as people think we are the lowest of the low. But you can't say that we are less capable of doing anything as we can do more than other disabilities can. It's always been that fact for the longest time and I am sorry you disagree with that. That is my point. Please tell me it is not hard for you to understand that?
There have been many videos on here with deaf people trying to educate the hearing community but sometimes the message does not get across. I have decided to give my opinion on what I think but in a more offensive way using stronger words and more points because after all the hearing people have put us down for years and still believe we are not capable of doing anything to this very day. If only they knew how many successful deaf people there have been in this world. And don't tell me I can't say anything negative when we have been getting negative shit thrown in our faces for years.
Deaf Communtiy VS Hearing Community
During my LGBT class, I decided to do my project on my best friends who were also dating at the time. This is what I came up with. I did the audio interpretation myself. Sorry for the extra black at the end. If you know sign language you can just
mute my voice. This was the last project I did for my last semester as a undergraduate.
All the right to the instrumental song go to the Artist and the Company.

Sign Language as the distinct expression of their culture and community. Sacks travelled to Gallaudet to witness the tumultuous events and subsequently chronicled them with remarkable sympathy and insight in his book Seeing Voices. This panel, moderated by Janice Rimler, will focus a variety of such voices on Sacks' contributions to the wider discourse between the hearing and the Deaf.

These deaf drummers will blow your mind.
The amazing deaf percussion band ExtraOrdinary Horizons laid down some serious beats that inspired Singapore indie band Black Forest to write this song.
If, like us, you thought the deaf couldn't appreciate music, much less make music, prepare to be proven wrong.
It's been said that the music in the soul can be heard by the universe. The universe is rocking!
Deaf, Loud and Proud
Silent Music is the story of a deaf boy who obtains the ability to hear music when coming in contact with people and things. He strives to convey the idea of music to an also deaf friend. Although she is unwilling to believe him, he does not give up.
This film is the longest and largest production we have worked on. The shoot began last year and continued for over 4 months. Probably the biggest challenge was the sign language that was involved. Aaron and Dale practiced their signing with Hannah in between every shot.
