Today I awoke with the good intention of loading up my Ipod with the Bueno, entonces class and having a r
elaxing morning sat in the nearby park, however it is fairly f*$&ing cold this morning so I remained inside. It is still pleasing to know that I have the chance to take the full video classes on the road with me when the time comes, an option unique to Bueno, entonces and unavailable to Rosetta Stone users. And while we are on the subject, I came across an offer to buy Rosetta Stone cheap, although was still more expensive than the $147 price for the downloadable Bueno, entonces package. In case you haven't seen it already check out this little comparison chart!

To be honest thi
s one is more for the ladies as we all know that the female race are more inclined to increase excitement levels when out in the abundance of shopping malls and stores aligning the streets of Palermo Hollywood! However the lesson was not without its use as I now feel well equipped to provide convincing replies when my girlfriend returns from a shopping spree (which is fortunately not too often) and asks me questions about the camisas, vestidos, zapatos and other such things, like my favourite clothing word bombachas (knickers). There were also a lot of colours discussed today and the fact that in Spanish, some colours agree in gender and number with the noun, some only in number and some not at all.....confusing I know.....even more so when you are unable to distinguish between each colour on the screen.....looked like a kaleidoscope of rainbows to me.....lucky that Bueno, entonces are smart enough to include the colour-blind friendly English translations at the bottom of the screen!

This is something which I find myself having frequent trouble with and any attempt usually results in me breaking out into the classic 90s reggae/dance track Sweat (A la la la la long) by Inner Circle.....but I'm all for reliving the teenage years!!
