Gracias A Dios Es Viernes...
My bad every one I so forgot to introduce myself!!! My names Amanda Tate!!! I am an 18 year old college freshman going to St. Charles Community College!!! Sorry for not introducing myself in the first blog.
THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY or in spanish GRACIAS A DIOS ES VIERNES!!! I had my four hour long spanish class today and I really want to learn spanish but 4 hours of just sitting in a class room gets a bit boring and tiring. I find myself having to find things to do at my desk to keep me from falling asleep!!! I've learned a lot already though and I'm determined to learn it. You see my dad is now the new pastor of a church in Mesa, Arizona so that means a lot of spanish talking people. Well, it's a smaller church right now but I know that it is going to grow and when it does that means that some people who can only speak spanish are going to be coming too. So I want to learn spanish fluently so that I can be a translator for them and my dad. So I'm working hard to accomplish this!!!
It has been a long week though and I'm soooooo tired but I guess it comes along with college!!! I'm sleeping in tomorrow though...YEAH!!!
But this is going to be a short one today because I'm pooped but I will post some pictures of me and tell you more about this great place you call college!!!
~God Bless~

Its worth the pain of sitting though the foreign language class.
Suggestion-Find someone to help you practice what you currently know(preferably a native speaker).
It will mean so much to those you witness to when you bring yourself to their level(i.e. speaking a language you are not as comfortable using)

Thanks for the advice. I actually have my own personal tutor...my best friend Christi who lived in Argentina pretty much her whole life helps me a lot and I hear her talk spanish all the time. So it's working out really well!!! Thanks again for the advice!!!
