Привет, Muchochos

So, in my ever-so-badly procrastinated quest to learn Russian, I have not given up yet. I still don't know enough to converse. I can get around a store, and comunicate some basic ideas. I can read some and understanding a little of what I hear -- however it's far short of what I hoped for after 8 months in Russia. Unfortunately, having to learn on my own time, with so many competing distractions, has not helped my learning of the Russian Language.

On Friday, I bought a Spanis-Russian lesson book and dictionary -- not a word in English. This might be a good approach to try, as I have had 2 years of Spanish, and I find it a much easier language to understand. Not that I know Spanish, either, but I'd really love to. And perhaps, I can work on both langauges at the same time. Wish me luck!
