You know your life has begun when you have something to go to therapy for. Welcome to just another trivial story of another twenty, ahem, nearly thirtysomething.

FOR THE LOVE OF GRAMMER!

I have water and everything is peachy ( meaning I smell peachy).I love the weekend. It's friday and I got to sleep in today.
Yesterday I had my second Romanian tutoring session. I like my tutor Denisa. She is young Romanian teacher at Lahovari. We went over nouns.The hardest thing at least one of thehardest things about the romanian language are nouns. Each noun changes when you make it plural and then it changes again when it becomes definite for example.....the word boy....un barbat ( a boy), niste baieti ( some boys), baietul (the boy) and finally baietii ( the boys). You see there are four different words with different spellings for the same thing. And to make it even more confusing each word changes irregularlly and there are neuter words that follow neither the feminine rule nor the masculine but both. Ay de mi. How I love spanish and miss it. There you only have to add an "S"and gata! (that's it). Oh I learned an interesting word yesterday...lalelele means the tulips. Talk about a funny word. I have been trying to make up excuses to useit in a conversation. "Hi, how are you? Have you seen lalelele lately they're beautiful!" I love words. It's fun tryingout new ones. Every time I go to the market, it's like a game...putting foreign words together seeing if they work...if I am understood! Anyways, I must get going. I have to plan for the drama club tonight! ciao
