What is BJM doing?

Glad you want to know. After 6 weeks of Spanish class at Miguel de Cervantes http://www.learn2speakspanish.com/ I decided to begin to move on.

The 6 weeks were fantastic. The school´s students, teachers, staff and director made for a great experience. I would go back to class in a second. And, if you find yourself in Xela, Gautemala looking for a Spanish school - 2 Big Thumbs Up to Miguel de Cervantes.

I decide to end the classes, not because I am fluent (sometimes i don{t think i am conversational); rather, I needed to continue my journey south.

I left prior to learning the subjunctive tense. I think the subjunctive has something to do with hopes,dreams and opinions. I have very little of those, so i figure I can get by without that tense.

I did learn how to say ´no, i did not do my homework because i was dancing until very early this morning´and ´if i had known that she was your wife, kind sir, i would not have done the vodka shot off her belly´

I seem to be getting by.

now that i am out of class, I hope to increase the amount of conversation and also try to learn on my own. It didn´t work at university or grad school but this time...things will be different.
