My Spanish Sucks.

I am only taking one Spanish class this semester and then I will be done with the Spanish major.  Sadly, I don't really like the class though. There are a decent amount of grad students or Hispanic people who put the rest of us to shame.  It doesn't help that I am way too out of practice with speaking Spanish.  When I attempt to participate in class, I just babble like an idiot, mis-conjugating verbs like crazy and forgetting important vocabulary words.  It's pretty frustrating. 

A girl that I had a few of my Spanish classes here at ISU is studying abroad in Granada this semester.  I have been stalking her blog and I am so jealous as she mentions all of the familiar sights and people, such as El Parque Fredrico Garcia Lorca and the program leaders Dani and Jorge.  She is off in a beautiful foreign country, surrounded by Spaniards and soaking up the beautiful Spanish language while I am here struggling to form sentences in my one and only Spanish class.  Blahhh.

I had a dream last night that I was traveling through Mexico.  As dreams usually are, this one is difficult to explain.  All that I know is that I was able to communicate with some Mexican shopkeeper and it was successful and helpful and awesome. 

I am taking two ESL classes this semester for my TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) minor and I like those.  My Rhetoric class is decent but I LOVE my teaching of literature class. The teacher is so passionate and able to make every class session different and fun.  Maybe I should just be an English teacher.  I think I'd be better at that anyways.
