New friends AND salsa!

The house is full again! Four girls from Denmark arrived yesterday and a Swedish boy moved into the house too. The girls are a blast! Most of the time they remember I don´t speak Danish, but I might end up learning some of that as well. We went out salsa dancing last night, one of my most favorite things to do. There´s nothing like Latino dancing. I got spun around so much I was dizzy. The basic moves are really easy and fun, and as long as you don´t think too hard so are all the turns and changes. But I am considering taking some lessons so I can learn the fancy elaborate moves too. Spanish is coming along really well. I was sitting talking with my teacher this morning and realized that I was comprehending without translating in my head. I knew what all of the words were and didn´t have to think about it! So exciting. As my passive vocabulary grows, I find that I am also able to use lots of words in conversations that I´ve worked so hard to memorize. So its starting to click. I´m so happy! This weekend is going to be more studying because I only have three more weeks of intensive Spanish before my new job at the Hospital starts. Gotta keep learnin! There might be a little time for more salsa on Saturday though... Miss you all!
