Today marks 3 months in Argentina!
Overall everthing has been great!
I have an amazing family here, and live in an amazing place.
An update of how i am doing------------>
School gets better everyday, and everyday i understand more.
When people talk to me, i almost always understand, and rarely have to ask people to repeat things. When i speak, i feel as if i can talk more and more. It is no where near perfect, but i am understood. My friends are correcting me, and that really helps. I need to hear things 3 or 4 times, but i eventually get it.
One way that has helped me to learn new words is when i use sticky notes. I have my friends write new words on these purple sticky notes, and i study them while the rest of the class takes a test, or when there is a down period during the day.
Sometimes it is frustrating when i understand everything, and i can't reply the way i want to. I have to take what i want to say, and what i can say, and combine the two. But everyday i learn more!
