Es cierto, I used to hablo espanol. I took four years of spanish throughout high school and two in college. One of my dearest friends is Argentinian, so she kept me pretty fluent while she was in Ohio. One would think I would be pretty fluent after all of this studying. The truth of the matter is, I just recall bits and pieces of the language. I can form exactly three sentences these days.

Donde esta el bano?
(where is the bathroom)

Un burro sabes mas que tu.
(A donkey knows more than you.

and of course the grand finale.....

Me llamo Alison.
(I'm not even going to translate)

I really don't have a reason to post this, I just thought it was an interresting fact.

Keep up on it Alison! I learned Spanish while living in Guatemala and use it almost daily now. It is an invaluable skill to have.
