Sucky Day
This Tuesday was the worse day ever for learning Spanish. I was so unbelievably (i know i cant spell) fustrated with direct objects, reflexive pronouns, congegating verbs present, past, future, irregular verbs and words....AAARRGGGG!!! I really started to tear up in the middle of a lecture. My teacher got a little freaked out yet still continued to try and teach me. I felt like saying...just let me be. But she insisted that I cheer up. I called many people to try and vent...but most of you didn´t pick up. Pick up your freaking phones!!!! Thanks Bonnie! It is so fustrating being Puerto Rican and not being able to speak Spanish! My friend, Vida, from Brookly, NY is also Puerto Rican and is going through the same thing. So we have been able to talk about that and connect on this issue. Oh and my favorite part of the day was when a dog pissed on my head. i was walking down the street and there was a dog peeing off the roof. I thought it was starting to rain...but no...dog piss! Last night I went to a bar and had a couple of glasses of red wine with my friend Kati (her real name is Caitlin). We had the same waitor as last week. He remembered us. He is from Belize and speaks fluet English and Spanish. Most people from Belize are of African descent and speak English (i think, that is what someone told me) Before we left he asked me for my number and if we can hang out on friday. So here I am in Central America surrounded by Latinos and the first person to ask me out is a brotha ofcoarse!

Hey...maybe a dog pissing on your head is like a bird pooping on your leg at the beach - GOOD LUCK! Think of it that way. I think you have some sort of animal attraction or something. =) Bark like a dog, "woof, woof, woof," a big dog "WOOF, WOOF, WOOF!" I hope you've seen the movie Boomerang...
Well, I suppose that this trip is supposed to be full of surprises, so just add this one to the list. I can see the transformation happening just by reading your words....keep them coming.
By the way, "student" is me : )
