Mucho queso

I have six months to learn to converse in Spanish. Or more accurately, to possibly give a short speech and toast in Spanish, and talk to people afterwards.

So I've been listening to ThalĂ­a. Specifically, her Dance Hits Remixed album. All the dance tunes are awesome, and make the morning bus rides bearable.

But I don't think it's helping me with the grammar!

Learn from my sister: "Necesito sopa por mis pantalones" does not mean "I need soap for my pants." Saying that to a shopkeeper in Costa Rica well earn you some interesting looks.

Can practice this line, though: "Gracias, Senora. La sopa es delicioso." First step: figuring out ser vs. estar!
