I've tried learning Spanish before, and at one point I was half-way decent.
I wanted to take French but my parents said it wasn't practical outside of going to nice restaurants. So off I went learning the basics of any language being taught to uninterested youths. Soon enough I was able to tell people my name and that I liked soccer or I could travel by boat to buy pantalones. It felt strange to me having to make up sentences that didn't have any meaning or context. The teacher would ask me what hora Juan went to the discoteca but I was more interested in where Juan came from why he was in the discoteca with Maria and Pilar. Did they have a history? Was Juan seeing both women?
Evidently, I have a tough time taking something out of context. So with this blog of mine I am going to attempt to take my life and bring it to the web. I invite you to learn a little about my life and how I think. I've always enjoyed reading blogs because it makes me think differently about people, people I've never met exposing just enough to me so I have the chance to imagine what they might really be like. I hope you do the same for me.
Cordially,
Hunter
