Hola mis amigos!!
Yes it's been awhile! Since my time in Zambia I have well adjusted back to Canadian life. It was awesome to see my family again! I spent some time in New York before heading home for Christmas...but that's all old news!
I am now I proud university student working on my general Bach. of Arts. I have started my first year with an undeclared major, so I am taking a random courses to figure out what I want to do. I know WHAT I want to do, become a school teacher, but I have to figure out HOW I'm going to get there! So, this semester I am taking the all important, Foundations of Academic Writing (FAW), Understanding the Contemporary World (so far, basically art history), and Intensive Spanish (hence the introduction /\). Being a student again is kind of like learning how to ride a bike again, you never really forget. I'm just a little rusty. :p My study habits need to be tuned and writing skills need practice.
I'm really enjoying Spanish. I can't say I'm getting the marks I wanted, but I've only had one test. Hopefully, I can learn from my mistakes!
With all the words and grammar we have learned this is the introduction I put together yesterday for class:
Me llamo Yolanda. Soy rubia, alta, y joven. Estudio en a la Universidad. Soy canadiense. Me gusta dibujar y pintar. Yo vivo en Windsor con mis abuelos, mis primos, y mi Hermana. Fui Chicago en el fin de semana. Deseo ser profesora de colegio.
I apologize if there are any grammatical errors, and please correct me if I do!
I may not me at Sakeji any more, but it's still "A Wonderful Life"! God is good! I have been enjoying this verse lately, "Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him,
who is the health of my countenance, and my God." Psalm 42:11
I went to highlight the good parts and realized I didn't know which parts to pick! It's all so relevant to me right now! I thank God for His constant presence and love!
