I just finished my lunch and after I post my text, I'll study for the vocabulary test that I have tomorrow.
The class was very nice this morning. We had some native speakers coming in for a conversation, and I met a very nice lady, Katherine, who worked as an elementary teacher, and has four children and six grandchildren. She is originally from Arkansas and has lived in Dallas for more than 20 years.
K.T. (her nick name) has travelled to a lot of countries such as England, France, Holland etc.. but her favorite place is London. She also visited 48 states in the U.S. Most of the trips were done by car when her husband and she were younger. Nowadays, she doesn't travel by car anymore 'cause of her age: 80 years-old. Can you believe it? I would like to get old and be just like her when I turn 80! She is very sweet and remindes me my grandmother.
My friend Dani invited me to go out for lunch tomorrow. She has to take her friend to DFW airport, so would be perfect to meet her close to the airport. I just need to call her and confirm it.
Yesteday I was watching one of my favorites shows on TV: Dancing with Stars. For my surprise, one of the stars is Helio Castro Neves, a Brazilian driver. He is very nice guy and speaks very good English. Everytime when I see a famous Brazilian speaking English, I try to pay attetion to their accents. Like Gisele Bundchen ( Victoria's Secrets model), she speaks very clearly and doesn't have too much accent. Good for her! And I still have to work on mine.

How hard is to wake up early on Mondays... I think nobody likes Mondays morning...
Well, today class was very nice. We went to visit Real World a non-profit agency, affiliated with TCU, that works with advertising, marketing and public relations for non-profit organizations. The cool thing about it is the staff is composed by TCU students majoring in the areas of marketing, advertising, communication, public relations etc... It was very interesting to know how they do their job.
We also had a vocabulary quiz and I did great. On Wednesday we're gonna have one more, so I need to study 2 more lists.
By Thursday I will take my speaking test for the third time. I wanna see If I can improve more. My last score was 61, so I hope I can get at least 65.
My husband is in Trinidad & Tobago this week. He'll be back on Friday night. I don't like when he travels especially now that I'm in the new house, so everything is kind of scary for me. But that's ok, I can deal with that.
I have an appointment with my hair stylist on Friday. I can't wait to cover my black roots.. just look horrible right now.
Ok I'll continue tomorrow.

I can't believe how fast last week was. Probably because I had some things to do and I not even noticed.
Well, I've been organizing the house, going to school, doing homework, taking care of Troy, Sandy, and some other things.. Everyday I've woke up early and gone to bed late. This is not the life that I desire for myself, but at the same time, I know this is just temporary. Therefore, in a few months, I'll be able to breathe normally again!
Next month I'll turn 27 and as a birthday gift, I would like to have a party in my new house. It would be so great to show my house to my friends. I'm looking forward for that!
There are 2 more weeks to go for the end of my first session at TCU. I'm not sure if I'll do the second session. I might be ready to get a job before that. Let's see what is going to happen.
As usual, on Fridays we have a speaking or writing test at TCU. Last Friday was writing, and I got 5 out of 6. Ok, let me clarify one thing: the very first one that I did in the morning I got 4, and I thought I didn't have enough time to finish it. Then later, I was able to continue from where I stopped. In fact, I had 6 minutes left on the computer, so that worked out in my favor and I got 5! I'm feeling better now 'cause I really wanted to see my improvements, especially in my writing.
Yesterday we went to Fort Worth where they have stockyards to have dinner with some friends. The food was delicious especially desert. I ate pecan pie with ice cream! It was out of this world!!
Well, I gotta go ‘cause I need to study some vocabulary for tomorrow morning.
Bye.
