I have not blogged in a few days because things have just taken off and I am so busy all the time. I started another chanting class and then Sanskrit too. The classes are all good. I guess I am so happy that yet again I get to start studying another language. I love studying them, even though I am not the best at it and have to study a lot. I still love the journey. I will return to Chinese, probably when I get back to New York, but I just love having the new adventure upon me.

I have been lucky enough in the last month to really speak Italian a lot too. In Italy of course, but then here too. There are a few Italians which makes it fun to speak in multiple languages and keep things fresh in my head.

My roommate last month was from Chile and I really thought that my Spanish had gone out the window because I could not understand anything she said. I always had to switch to English with her. Today, however, I was chatting with a guy from Mexico and I could understand all that he was saying. I am not sure that it was just her dialect that I didn't understand. Good thing, because I was about to get upset that I understood nothing.

We have just learned about 2/3rds of the alphabet in Sanskrit class. I need to study them today and get them down. The class is 3 days a week and goes at a good pace. I should have no trouble with it.

Ok, off to 6main for a snack because I am hungry!!!


Ciao, Ciao.
