¡Hablé con mi novio y mi mamá!

I talked to Brian on the phone today. He was supposed to call at 8:00pm, but the phone didn’t ring until 8:30pm. When I asked him why it took so long, he said that he bought a calling card from the tienda next to our apartment and the whole card was in Spanish. He had to translate the directions to figure out how to use it. I thought it was really cute. The card he bought was $5 for 5 hours, which is much better than the $10 I paid for a 30 minute card. It was great to hear his voice.

I told Brian to call my mom and have her call me.

Mom called about 5 minutes after I got off the phone with Brian. We spoke the whole time in Spanish and it was incredible, simply incredible. It brought such a cool feeling to my soul that I was talking to my mom in her first language. I can’t really explain the feeling—it was just amazing. It was great to have her ask me questions and answer them. We kept talking and talking and I love it. She’s going to call me next Sunday.

Sara Bridge and Beth came over and we just talking and hung out. I had a great time.
