Update

Hello everyone. If there is still anyone who checks this thing. I´m sorry for the terrible update pattern. This is how things go when you attend school in another country, it´s a little difficult. Anyway, things here are pretty good and I´m learning spanish pretty quickly. As far as gramatics and accent, i do pretty well, but my vocabulary is horrific. I´m trying, but the only way to improve vocab is to practice and study.
Contrary to popular belief: i will be returning home this summer...or winter for you guys. I´ll have one month before i have to fly back down here. I´m planning on leaving a suit case´s worth of stuff here and bringing back more clothes because the winter (starting in april) is going to be rather tough. I´m meeting alot of people here...the latino´s are wonderful. I am psyched about learning the language to a level where i can have some really good latino friends. But right now...there only sortof close. I´m thinking about living in a spanish speaking country for a year...maybe. Seriously. Several people here have told me that they would let me stay with them for free, and that they´d help me find work. This would be great for my spanish improvement and to help me understand the culture of hispanic americans better (ie. everyhispanic person minus those from spain...más o menos)
One more note. A guy came here from the united states with a church called Woodstock baptist...supposedly its a big church in georgia. but i´ve never heard of it. haha. w-e. Anyway, he came here because the church is involved with sending missionaries to the middle east. And it´s next to impossible to send missionaries there from the United states because of our color. But a latino would have no problem. To make a long story short-er...my roommate is seriously considering being one of those missionaries. He´s fluent in english, french and spanish and is certified to teach. This would make him an excelent person to go over there. I ask that you pray for him concerning this. His name is Andrés Herrera, from mexico. He´s a swell guy who i know that if he went, would honestly enhance the kingdom of God. How cool would it be to say, I roomed with this guy who´s a missionary in the Middle east? pretty cool, i know.
well thats all for now, i´ll try to get back soon.
