I have been informed that I don't post enough blogs and am missed by the populace at large. Lol sorry. I will give you the low-down on my life.

It's the beginnings of my final paper in the class--which has to be ten pages (hopefully double-spaced). I took a Spanish test yesterday as well as a math test. I did well on the math not so sure about Spanish. I also went to a lecture given by a woman named Helen Whitney (??) who is a big deal documentarian and has won Emmies and the like for her work.

Albowin: "Me neither." Mischievite: "Neither have I." Remewin: "I have! In Afwica." ***

I think learning another language is going to be the death of me. I had all these high hopes for getting A's from now on in college and now all I can think is.... B's are good too. But I can say 'no me gusta pongo salsa en mi comida' which possibly translates into I do not like sauce in my food. Oh dear....
