Just a news flash - I have a new teacher...again! I was pretty sad about losing the other guy, because he was really cool, but this new guy is great! He is a great teacher and a funny guy. He's got lots of positive energy and is very educated. He is interested in languages and speaks English as well as Castillano and Catalan and is learning French right now. He is interested in culture and literature - especially Spanish. Heads up for all who don't know...

I stopped by the library on the way home from school, as I often do, but today was the first day I made it past the reading room! The reading room is filled with newspapers and magazines on shelves along the walls and there are chairs(fairly comfortable chairs) in the middle. There is enough in that room to keep me busy with my dictionary for a year, and it did hold my interest for just over a week, but today I moved on to the second floor where all the books ...
