A few days ago I was feeling OK about this language thing. The past 2 days, I wonder if I’ll ever get it. On Saturday night we went out for dinner with this dude some of the chicas met, and he must have spoke slowly for us because I could speak and understand well. I even got to ask about Op Shops and second hand clothes (which by the way is a weird thing here).

Anyway, since then, my confidence has gone. I moved into my new house today, and Rosalía, one of the chicas who is lovely speaks so fast I can hardly understand a word. Anyway, it’s rather exciting that I have a room and a house and all that. It turned out I didn’t have to share a room, so anyway, Gab and I are going to share. It’s near the botanic garden and more importantly a vegetarian restaurant.
