Language

You know how the sad truth is the cleaning staff is always Hispanic? Well, no, but the majority of the time it is. Anyway, there were these two ladies cleaning out the trash bins while I was walking from my room to the bathroom (right across the hall, hah!). I heard them speaking Spanish so I said good morning and excused myself. I could tell they were surprised to hear Spanish from me. The truth is most Hispanic girls on campus don't ever speak Spanish because, chances are, all their friends here don't know the language. Well they struck up a conversation with me and they were just mega friendly and sweet. AND as an added bonus, they told me where I can find tamales and tacos and empanadas and all the wonderful things. Homemade. UGH. yes.
