Tengo mi presentacion para espanol manana. Estoy nerviosa claro, pero realice que no puedo hablar espanol. Cuando practique mi presentacion fue horible. No puedo hacer presentaciones mas largos en ingles, pues como puedo hacer uno en espanol? Hablare sobre los desaparecidos de argentina y es una tema muy interesante pero no puedo hablar de nada en espanol especialmente algo dificil y triste como eso. posible si ire a clase temprano, puedo empezar mi presentacion antes de la clase. espero que yo pueda. la cosa que aprendi este ano en espanol es que todos las personas en mi clase saben mas de mi en espanol. pues en el ano proximo necessito trabajar con hispanicos o algo para aprender mas de la lengua si quiero hablar sin hesitacion.
ahora en espanol, dije "like" entre dos palabras en espanol. como... "caminaba por la calle y like yo vi un pato." es chistoso, pero tengo mucho averguenzada. haha
anyway, so enough of stupid rambling. there's a country singer here tonight called josh gracin and i'd probably go check it out if i didnt' have such a workload. it seems like loyola has all these end of the year shindigs going on, but everyone's boycotting to study. it's pretty sad really, but we're all just to dedicaded or something like that.
this saturday is displace me chicago for invisible children. If anyone's interested something like 8-10,000 people are meeting at solider field at 3pm and sleeping there till 9am the next morning for the cause. It's basically to raise awareness for what's going with the kids in Uganda with the LRA, so the more people the better. It'll be fun, regardless of what Dunja might say. You make your own little houses out of cardboard and ducktape.
So yesterday I was on the L with a few friends and this homeless man who was really nice was talking to us after we had all just volunteered at a soup kitchen off Howard. So he's like "what have you guys learned from the soup kitchen." All of us were silent and then he's like "come on, if you had to write an essay about it what would you put in it?" And you know what i said? the worst possible thing you could ever think of to say... "I'd probably bs the essay, in all honesty." What the heck was i thinking telling a homeless man that? it's not like i really feel that way about volunteering, but i couldn't think of anything. So i think that's like the third thing this year that i can put down in my scrapbook when i make one as the worst thing to say at a particular time.
