I spoke to Jesus from spain. I choose him because he was from Spain and I heard spain had a major strike so I talked to him.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned about his some spanish activities he does in spain. I also learn that there are Cheesesteaks in spain. The are called Filadelfia Cheesesteaks. There. Finally I learned about the Strike. He said it was all the governments fault for not paying the schools.
How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
I forgot what my original goal was so I changed it to learning about the strike. I helped me a lot by letting me understand in a spanish persons eyes what the strike was all about.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I did well asking questions about the topic and having follow up questions so the situation wouldn't be awkward/.
What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
I said Cheesesteaks in english. I don't know what the spanish translation was but he at least got it.

Who you spoke with and why you chose that partner?
I spoke with this girl from Venezuela named Zulelulsmar. She started the conversation.What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
She's a petroleum engineer and also a bit about Venezuelan holidays. How it gets out of control and crazy during holidays.How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goals?
Learned how to properly arrange certain sentences.What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations? What specifically to you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
I think I did well in at least being able to interpret what she was trying to say. I do need to improve on sentence structures and the proper use of vocabs. Such as "si, soy un estudiante" or "no estudio en la universidad, en escuela secundaria"

In the second slideshow I included my favorite photos from the entire quarter, I edited them to a way that made them look more appealing and they are also all taken by me. I liked doing photography because you get to go out and see the world in a different way, through the eye of the camera.

La Comida de Venezuela
Our luncheon was about tryng new Spanish foods and comparing/contrasting it with American food. I experienced how Spanish food has different twists than we do. I learned that they make their food creativly like the juice from flour. I enjoyed the tres leche the most.
Me encanta la tres leche pastel.
Flour, tres leches, icing
¡Es muy muy muy delicioso!
Y me gusta el beber - jugo de flour
flour, hojas de té
Es bueno.
¿Comó son las vidas de personas en otras países?
When I had asked him if he could answer a few questions for me, he gave really short answers at first and I had to encourage him to go into depth. I wasn't aware that I was making mistakes (I kept writing país, as páise for some odd reason) and he helped me correct them, but after a while, it started to get annoying; he seemed to correct things that didn't seem like they needed to be corrected at all.

- Who did I speak with and why did I choose that person?
I spoke with Juan. I chose him because he is a native spanish speaker and he wanted to learn english or german so I figured we would be a good match. What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned some proper ways of speaking spanish. I got mistaken when I wrote down I was hot. He immediately showed me how to say it without it being I am like on fire or something.How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
This interaction helped me achieve my personal goals because I want to try to have a basic conversation without translating and having people correct me is a great way for me to learn.What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I didn't use a translater this time and I tried to keep the conversation going. He eventually left though.What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
I need to improve on my basic spanish sentence structure.

Who did I speak with and why did I choose that person?
I spoke with a woman named Monica from Columbia. I noticed we were close in age, so I thought it would be nice to speak to them.How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
With each conversation I have, I'm not as nervous anymore. A lot of people are complimenting me about my Spanish skills, so I feel really good about that.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I felt really comfortable speaking with her. I kind of went right into the conversation, and didn't hesitate.

Slang, Blog #5, Eres la Hosita
the slang of another country.
¿Habla mucho *argot con tu amigos?
¿Que argot en argentina?
¿Que Comica palabras adolescente habla?
¿Tu habla mucho argot?
¿*Argot es normal?
*lenguaje de informal (Different way of saying slang, using this more people understood my questions.)
Sources:

What are you looking forward to about this conversation?
I am looking forward to learning some slang in spanish. I don't know any or if its really different from english slang. It should be fun!
What are you nervous about?
I am not really nervous, this is going to be my 5th conversation, I feel like I got this now!
Who did I speak with and why did I choose that person?
I spoke to many different people. The reason for this is because the first couple people I spoke with didn't understand what I was asking, but I am not really sure why. Also many people were very touchy with this topic. I am unsure why people were so touchy, I hope I didn't offend them. This was very weird to me.
What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
I learned many different ways to say "slang." Using different versions of saying slang can cause you to get different types of reactions, some better then others. I was really surprised. I also learned about eres la hosita, which means thats awesome, but can be used positively or negatively. It use to mean something religious but now its used used to describe something.
How did this interaction help you move towards achieving your personal goal?
It helped me learn a little about slang but it also showed me how people react to different questions and topics. I got the feel that this topic could of been touchy for some people in these spanish speaking countries where its not touchy at all in America.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations?
I kept talking to people until I learned some type of form of slang, This included talking to four people, but I didn't give up. I really wanted to learn something.
What specifically do you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
I need to figure out better ways to phrase things. Many of the people didn't understand how I was wording things and wasn't use to the form of spanish I was using. For one the word Argot meaning slang in spanish confused almost everyone and no know knew it. This is what word reference told me but I guess people don't really use that word.

Proyecto de Conversación 5
My partner taught me that school Peru is much like school in America. We both take the exact same classes in high school. I learned that my partner is a very enthusiastic person, as she never lost interest in the chat. I learned that I enjoy talking to others, as the conversation lasted for a while once again. As we spoke more and more, I became increasingly interested in her cultural traditions. Once again, I was surprised that my partner was so friendly. If someone tried to chat with me about a school project, I doubt that I would be as cooperative as she was. I am proud that I learned something about school in Peru from the chat, as education is the key to success. Once again, I had a fear that my partner would suddenly exit the chat from boredom. Luckily, this chat was successful.
Blog Post 5: "Conocer" vs. "Saber
Pre-Conversation:
So this conversation will be discussing with different people about the diference between "saber" and "conocer". I don't really have any discussion questions ahead of time...but I want to ask questions like:
"Como tu ta?"
"Que estudias?"
y "Cuales la diferencia entre "conocer" y "saber"?"
I'm anticipating a few interesting, but not really difficult conversation.

Me-¿Como usar ironia en español?
Leandroadalfo-La ironía es una forma de argumentar compleja y que precisa de un cierto nivel de intelectualidad. Como recurso lingüístico avanzado y altamente comunicativo, no creo que su uso sea el más adecuado para una persona que está aprendiendo un idioma, y tampoco creo que una persona con escaso dominio de un idioma pueda hacer uso de la ironía con su verdadero valor.

Who you spoke with and why you chose that partner
- I spoke with multiple people but unfortunately, unable to screenshot our conversation because I kept on closing my laptop and when I opened it, it'd say error. However, the last conversation I had was with Kathlyn D. from Spain.What did you learn about them? What did you learn from them?
- I learned that she was 16 years old and that her friends went to the huge protest that was organized for schooling. She couldn't go because her parents didn't allow her to. However, they all got the day off from school.- I was able to keep our conversation going and I understood what she was saying. I was able to reply fast without using translator. I learned a lot of basic words and how to question a matter.
What specifically did you do well according to your goals/expectations? What specifically to you need to improve on? (Quote specific things you said or did and what you would have done or said if you could do it again)
- I think keeping the conversation going went well. I knew how to question when she said something weird, without sounding like a newbie. I tried to sound as if I was familiar with the language by fixing my grammars etc.Las Cazuelas
