... get severely irritated with the translation situation. When we go to places like this, ************e speaks English, which I obviously have no problem with. But what does is upset me, is that when other people attempt to translate besides Joe they don’t translate everything. The kids who came here knowing Spanish, definitely have an advantage when this happens and I’m starting to get irritated with it. About 5 of us, do not understand much Spanish at all and they continue ...

My new life as an artist
Hey guys, I know it's been awhile, sorry! Life starts to get into a routine and everything feels so normal, that I never feel like anything is blog worthy!
