Just learned my first joke in Portuguese: "Filho vai ter bebida?" "Nao mãe, nao vai" "Tem certeza?" "absolut mãe, fica tequila :)"

From Twitter. Pouring the language into my head, from as many directions as possible. Podcasts, news, TV, literature, Twitter...

I chatted with Chris a bit today, it feels good to be able to practice speaking. Would love to falar with Olivia...

I always think about how grateful I am for the Internet, especially because, in some ways, it makes learning much faster. But it's interesting how other things just won't change that easily...many things still take a long time...Learning patience.

Also, I'm learning how to stick with a piece of music until it begins to yield itself.
