I’ve gotten lost too many times today. I really need to get a map or something.

Didn't they give you a map when you first got here? 

Wednesdays are always boring.

Ugh, I agree. Plus, people say the stupidest shit on Wednesdays. Like shut the fuck up because I don't care if it's hump day or not; it's fucking Wednesday. 

Math work, Dirty Dancing and ice-cream. My night’s better than yours.

What kind of ice cream? Sounds fun, though. Well...except the math part.

What’s up? The name’s Roman.

Anahi. Nice to meet you, Roman. 

Hola anahi, soy Lilliana. Es bueno tenerte aquí, ¿cómo estás?

Ay, te quiero! Muchas gracias, Lilliana. Me encanta tu nombre. Estoy bien, y tu? Que onda? 

I..uh, said hi. 

Ah you were lazy about it ?

Claro que si. 

Ah, Spanish! You don’t have to speak in English if you don’t want to, you know. Though nice to meet you too. I’m good, thanks. How about you?

Ah, gracias! Sabes un poco de español o no? Porque no quiero confundirte, guey. Muy bien, gracias. Just trying to get used to being away from Guadajara y mi familia y todo, ya sabes. 

I didn’t understand some of that but…I think I got your name, so, it’s nice to meet you Anahi. I’m Carly.

It's nice to meet you too, Carly. I really like your name. It's simple but it works, haha.

Hi there, I took spanish for a year and a half

A year and a half? Hm, that's..interesting. I'm from Mexíco so basically, I took way too many english classes to try and perfect it by the time I got here but soy muy flojera so they didn't really work out. 

Hi, hello. I’m Nate.

Mucho gusto, Nate. Shit. I mean...uh..it's nice to meet you. How are you?
