middle names.

i dont know if its a talent or a gift, but i am really good at remembering people's middle names.
in no particular order:

alyse, marie, anna, nichelle, neil, cecile, suzy, lynn, kristine, anne, ann, elyce, and amanda.

do you guys feel loved? because you are. and obviously spelling is not important. but i love you guys even if i cant spell your names.

and whats my middle name? it's danger. rachel danger weinstein.
well that was a lie. elaina. i think it gives me some spicy latina flair. especially if im in spanish class. raquel elaina. alright so im not latin, that was also a lie.

i love spanish.

i love spanish. and i think this is hilarious.
it makes me want to take another spanish class.

i am pretty good at understanding about 80% of the conversations i hear. maybe that percantage is a little high. im not so good at speaking.
although my pronunciation is good.
example: a few times in the cafeteria i will ask for carne asada tacos. and i say it with a real good accent and then the servers ask me if i speak spanish. because i sound so prefessional.

my awesome grandma weinsttein taught spanish kindergarden in north hollwood for the longest time. and she is pretty much fluent. it was always fun for me when we would go out to lunch or something and she would talk to somone in spanish, because people dont expect to see a little old jewish lady speaking spanish.
