brailling

i've been having too much fun learning braille lately. did you know that on elevator buttons, the braille writing says "OPN" instead of "OPEN". hahaa
yesterday i went to library@senayan to try and read the braille writing they have there. i read eldest and well, i could read the writings but my fingertips are still too numb to actually feel them. then i went to ps with nindi to watch the eye. i'm sure many of you have seen the asian version. it's about a blind girl who got a cornea transplant. in the hollywood version, the details of her life as a blind is shown more. it's amazing how her sense of smell and hearing are really really strong. and it's amazing how she reads braille music notes. but what fascinates me the most is she has this some kind of braille printer.

yesterday at library@senayan, there was this banner who goes out to publishers and author to contact yayasan mitra netra so that their work could be published in braille. i'm going to start to contact as many authors to do so. haha
