Words don't come easily... forgive me.
Monday and Tuesday were normal- school, home, studies, Salsa at night- and i became cool with a 1/2 Haitian Dominican fellow who's girl is an older White German woman. Turns out he is learning English and heard i was teacher from my Vecino (neighbor) Michel. We did about 4 hrs that flew by on Tuesday evening. I have few German phrases here and there that i threw around with his Novia and a bit of Russian to try to impress ;-) (thanks again Dad- Adno itoshke' Kash De Dien... S-S-Diff-day LOL)
Ok so I know its been a while, and i'm here to update just for you.
Ok maybe this is day 6 or 7 depending on how you count. So far i've had 3 classes and they are going well. I study much in my free time and i also have my LearningSpanishLikeCrazy CD's, which are definitely a plus to have. On Wednesday i went to the beach again with the couple next door. I swear that i will bring my camera next time because i CAN'T describe how beautiful the scene is. Between the water, sand, and sky/sun combo, i can feel like i'm in a postcard. After a refreshing swim in the Caribbean Sea we mosey'ed on back to the apt and decided to do dinner together again. I provided the previous nights dinner so they in turn did for me. We feasted on Mangu (Plantains prepared like mashed potatos) with baked and friend chicken and some rice and peas called Moro(which these Dominicans swear I'm eating for the first time- had to school them on Trini-food being the exact same with a different name). Beemn meeting a lot of Germans and other foreigners who have opened up businesses here and speak like 2 and 3 languages. My intelligent self has been feeling pretty stupid for knowing English only, although i can run circles around them if they want to have a writing contest. Ok yes, still feeling stupid after that last line of self-biggup.
