My progress is quite pathetic. I understand more and more, but I don’t say anything because I can’t get the sentences to come together. (I did say 'que vulls' once to Toni and Oscar - but I don't think they appreciated my effort.)
I thought I’d try to get some help, and I asked if Montse (Albert’s mummy) could spend some time with me speaking Catalan. She said yes, and now I have someone to help monitor my progress. It kind of like inviting someone to your house so that you get motivated to clean it. Thanks Montse!
And guess what! I’ve signed up for an intensive course throughout August. Three hours every morning.
My aim is to be able to speak a basic every day conversation by Christmas. Good luck to me! And more importantly – study!!

Second lesson, not bad, huh??? :P
(Ps - I did NOT check my dictionary for mistakes, so I'm sure there is a little something wrong with the statement, but cut me some slack guys!)
