literature

I like reading, and usually I read in English. But since I´ve gotten here I´ve actually started reading in Spanish!

My host brother loaned me The Conde Lucanor, which is a collection of several short stories. It was written some really really long time ago, as in the 1300s. I am, of course, reading an adapted version.

Sometimes in the afternoon we have an optional literature class, and someone named Gema teaches that. She loaned me Doña Rosita la Soltera by Lorca, so I´ve been plowing my way through that one.

Oh, and having a 17-year-old brother with a computer means I get to pick up some Spanish chatspeak! So far I´ve learned ´jajaja´ and ´xq,´ which means ´because´.

Yesterday my morning Spanish class visited the library! I went to the children´s section and managed to get through a 20-page children´s book in under an hour =) I´m a work in progress.

¡Hasta luego!
