Spanish Class

This semester I have a much easier teaching schedule which is absolutely incredible! I actually have prep periods! :) So I decided to take a course in Spanish and basically just chose the one that fit my schedule, which landed me in Spanish 3! Now before you go thinking I'm crazy, I actually took 4 years of Spanish in high school and got around pretty well with the language until.... I moved to Germany. It was almost as if my brain's maximum capacity was 2 languages, so when German came in Spanish began to pack it's bags :/
The worst part is that when I moved back to the states I couldn't speak either one! If someone asked me a question in Spanish I would answer in German without even knowing it! I had understood the question but was no longer able to select the right language.

Since Spanish is slightly more useful in the states than German I have decided to focus my studies on this language and as I thought about signing up for school somewhere I realized I can simply attend class here on campus for free and go whenever I have time. Awesome!

I am going to get a book and actually do the homework, I think I might even take a quiz or two... :)

Anyways, I'm very excited and blessed that I have this opportunity.

Adios Amigos! :)
