  I'll probably be leaving GS soon, and I'm going to be much less active...

  I plan to give up my account in a few weeks or a month or two. It's not that I'm losing interest in GS or my friends, but I'm going to be very busy, and I'm going to lose my easy access to the internet. I'm already starting to become less active, and it will only be a matter of time before I stop posting completely. If you know me from a union that I hardly post in, I'll be posting even less, or I may leave completely. I'll still do my best to be active in most unions and level up my account, but I'd be surprised if I even made it to level 20. Anyway, that won't be until sometime in January, I guess, so I still have some time left to enjoy these forums.

  So, I'm trying to improve my Spanish...

  As some of you may know, I am mexican. Almost all of my older relatives were born and raised in Mexico, but mine is the first generation to be born here in the U.S. As a result, I'm fluent in English and I know just enough spanish to talk with my grandma and grandpa and aunts and uncles. I've decided that I want to become more fluent in Spanish, just because I don't want to waste the oppurtunity to be truly bilingual. I figure the best way is to read books in spanish and use them to improve my vocabulary and grammar.

  The weird thing is, I feel like I'm back in kindergarten. I'm struggling to understand about one in every seven words I read, and I find myself literally moving my lips and sounding out the words It's absurd! The first book is called Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal. I hadn't realized just how clumsy and limited my spanish was until I tried reading this book. It's going to be a nice challenge.

  Thanksgiving break is finally here

  Five days without school begins tomorrow, and I intend to make the most of it.

  Although there's still two days left, I want to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving
