Is it weird that I'm excited about getting a textbook in the mail? Really, I love getting anything in the mail. If you want to make me happy that is pretty much all you have to do... But a textbook? I promise I'm not just desperate for mail. See I have been taking Spanish classes for about four years now, and you would think that with that much time I would be able to hold my own in a conversation with someone...wrong! The thing is I get stage fright. I know what you're thinking, "But Anna, you are a dancer. How do you get stage fright!?" It's totally different when you can't see the faces of the people you are "performing" for. As soon as someone starts talking to me in Spanish I totally go blank - I can't even think in English. It's crazy! Anyway, I haven't done any studying to prepare for my next semester of language classes since I took my exam during finals. Then lo and behold today this came in the mail and I thought, " Oh great. What have I gotten myself into. I have to read a whole book this time?" I decide to flip through the book to try and get familiar with it before class start and guess what. I read through a bit of it and understood it like English or something. I'm so so excited now! Guess I just needed a break.
Aaaannnddd...We had fried eggplant with dinner! It's one of my favorite foods, and I have not had it in a really long time. Thanks to pizza and good stuff like this, my vegetarian adventure is going just fine so far! Oh and some healthy vegetables as well.
