una nueva entrada... so far i don´t like it here at all. okay, so the historical aspects are really cool. granada is a beautiful city with impressive architecture. i haven´t had the opportunity to tour much, but that´s where i will be. the people here are ridiculous- so rude, with no common courtesy. they instill SO MUCH importance in fashion. there is a type you must conform to or else you are ostracized. it´s so frustrating not being able to speak and speak openly. i could potentially pass as a spaniard, if i dressed appropriately, but i can´t speak or understand anyone. anyway, i guess it will come with patience and practice. i start school tomorrow, hopefully then i can really pick up with the spanish. classes are at the centro de las lenguas modernas - un edifcio muy agradable y historico. all the instructors are very nice, so that will be a good change... i don´t really have any pictures to post yet, but will soon. miss you all.

I don't know if you got my other message so I thought I would try to here! How are things going? I'll keep checking on here, so keep me posted! P.S. I'm very jealous of you, you lucky girl!
my best (and only) advice about language is to simply speak it as often as you can. It's actually pretty easy for people to understand their own language even when spoken poorly (on the space station the Russians speak English and the Americans speak Russian). Eventually you'll find someone (or a few people) who'll listen and give you feedback. Learning to understand other people speaking is more of a challenge, but the good news is you can practice just by sitting in a cafe. Usted hará bien
