going to mexico and guatamala - must learn spanish! i'm taking a spanish conversation class at the community college and it's a non-credit night class. my teacher is this little lady from colombia who is just hilarious! she makes me actually want to leave my house to go learn spanish on monday nights. i've been knowing i need to learn spanish for awhile now. i got books at the library, cds and musical spanish. so far i've just...procrastinated! surprise! so i'm leaving in less than 3 months and need to know things. here is one reason i love youtube.
totally ridiculous. i am learning a lot in my class but i know the moment i need to actually speak to a mexican person, who's talking way too fast, i won't be able to come up with anything smart to say. i've heard that people appreciate when you try to speak their language, rather than assuming they speak english. so many people actually know spanish though, and well. i cheated myself when i took japanese in high school. what a slacker! i already knew japanese and there i was, in class for the easy A. there are lots of things i would do over in high school but oh well. now it's gonna be harder to learn cause i've lost so many brain cells. i blame dodgeball. we'll see.

Ha, ha, that reminded me of our senior year when you told everyone "Hola" during the morning announcements. Dude, too bad you didn't take spanish b/c then you'd be with me and Jeremy.
awesome, i LOVE learning languages, but i rarely have a reason to learn and y'know with languages unless you really use it then it's pretty useless to learn because you'll forget so quickly... super excited about your trip for you, haha.
