Going to Puerto Rico on Saturday and staying for a full week. ;-; No internet connection. I'm scared.
I should probably start packing...
HALES. GAWDS. NOW YOU'VE MADE ME BUY THE FRAY CD AND I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO IT. THANK YOU. :D

I'm jealous. My Tia Nina is from PR, and she says it's a beautiful place with beautiful people. Just a warning: the Spanish spoken in PR is much different from what you may have learned in school or from friends! It's a dialect that resembles Castillian (the "real" Spanish spoken in Mexico and most of Spain), much as American resembles English.
Buen viaje!

Actually, I don't know about the Puerto Rican dialect, but in Castillian there are a LOT of cognates - words that sound like their English counterparts - so you should be able to "manage," as you say. Just don't tell anyone "estoy embarazada," because that doesn't mean you're embarrassed - it means you're pregnant!

Well, I was wondering if you would mind adding me as a friend? I'll add you back, promise.
Anyways, have fun in Puerto Rico (even without the internet) ;D
