Plot Twist!

If you recall, one of the reasons I chose to learn Spanish was that I was likely going to be traveling to a Spanish-speaking country this summer.  Well, that has since changed! We are going to Jamaica and Grand Cayman, both of which are English-speaking countries. However, I will probably be going to a Spanish-speaking country the following summer. This is good news because it gives me more time to learn the language because this is going slowly!

In my last blog, I had the following plan:

1. Continue doing lessons in Duolingo to include finishing Past Tense Verbs, Present Tense 
Verbs 3, Infinitive Verbs 1, and Future Tense Verbs. (That's a lot of verbs!) ✔ Partially 
Completed: I've been slacking! I only completed Past Tense Verbs and part of Present Tense
Verbs. I still feel as though Duolingo is advancing too quickly.  

2. Continue doing lessons in Learn Spanish Step by Step on YouTube. I want to at least 
complete Lesson 5: Days of the Week, Lesson 6: Months of the Year, and Lesson 7: Seasons. 
✔ Completed: I complete all three of these on March 22, 2017. I like these lessons a lot now.
They are short and to the point.  

3. Finally, I will read the chapter on Spanish Lifestyle in the book I checked out from the library.
X Incomplete: I did not read this chapter in the book, but I will!

Looking ahead, I will be attempting to complete the following:

1. Continue Duolingo lessons including finishing Present Tense Verbs, Infinitive Verbs 1, and
Future Tense Verbs

2. I will read the chapter on Spanish Lifestyle in the library book.

3. I will complete lessons 7 (Telling Time), 8 (Subject Pronouns in Spanish), 9 (Ser vs. 
Estar), and 10 (Haber and Tener) on the Spanish Step-By-Step YouTube channel.

I have about a month to go! Hopefully I'll see some progress over the next two weeks!
