I SPEAK SOME SPANISH!!

Well, it's been a good week for my spanish learning. I'm sure I'll have lots more struggles, and I still have trouble stringing full sentences together but I've had some firsts:

1) I've had three successful conversations in a row with Antonio, the janitor for the science building, where we have conveyed ideas correctly and I've understood and acted upon it successfully! It doesn't sound like much but this guy is really nice so I want to get better at having conversations with him.

2) I had a ride from school back home in a taxi and kept up the conversation for the entire 20 minutes in Spanish! That's a first for me.

Matt, I think your mother just said you should quickly learn french so that when you come home you can save the country from separation because the sovereigntists are getting stirred up again.

Non bien là franchement! Les Québequois ne vont pas se séparée! Cela saurait la fin du Canada! Surtout pour nous les francophones hors-Québec!!
Mais il a raison tu devrait apprendre le Français!
salut mon loup!
