Entry #3

My home life is going pretty well. My roomate Allison is very nice, but she doesn´t talk to me much. In fact, no one in the house really does. I totally dig my hostparents. They are still super in love and they are always smiling at me. My roomate talks amazing Spanish, she is in the superior level. She even talks too fast for me to understand all of the time. So, they have conversations with each other and i try to put my two cents in but it usually ends with a questioning look on everyones face.

It´s not that they are trying to be rude but they just aren´t the most patient people and when I don´t understand something they usually just say¨No importante. ¨ Í think they may get a little frustrated with me sometimes, but not in a mean way. They were confused when i was explaining the fact that i had a 33 year brother and a 3 week year old brother. I forgot to mention the part where my dad married again and they assumed my 55 year old mother had birthed my new brother. Oops! Allison does a good job of not explaining very many things to me though. It is tempting to ask her what they are saying and if i do, she helps me. But I know, she knows i will not learn anything that way.

Mi caurto en mi casa es muy pequena. Mi cama es mas pequena que mi caurto, pero me la gusta. Es duro y mi espalda se le gusta tambien. No tengo despertadora. Me despierto 3 veces en cada noche mirar a mi reloj. Tengo cansado. Yo he comprado unas lesiones para mi despertadora, pero no las son trabajando. Yo necesito comprar una despertadora nueva.


Entry #4

Oh the food, please make it stop. It is very good but it is all protein. I normally only eat one kind of meat-egg per day. Now i am up to four a day (2 for ´la comida´and 2 for ´la cena´). I am the last one home from school so my plate is usually dished up for me already. It is not that it is always too much food, just too much meat. But that is what she likes to cook so i will eat it. My stomach will get used to it and i will have an expensive meat-buying habit when i return.

Eating dinner with my family is nice. They are so cute to watch talk to each other. They always sound like they are fighting and then they will burst into laughter. Now, my excuse for not being able to understand them much better is because they always talk with their mouth full or with a napkin over their mouth. But it is getting much better. We are starting to get to know each other more. We had a bonding moment my first day of school: I got done almost an hour later than my roomate. They asked me why I had to go so much later. I replied, ¨Yo necesito la practica¨ and we all had a good laugh at myself.
