First day of Spanish classes

I had my first day of classes today. My teacher's name is Romina. This school is pretty small -- I only saw 5 students including me during the morning session -- so it's a one-on-one class, not a group class. The teacher wasn't completely prepared today because she didn't know what level of Spanish I spoke, but we were able to fill the time with conversation and some exercises. Tomorrow she'll have more things prepared.

I'll take these classes for a week and see how I like them. There are many other schools in the area, so if this doesn't suit me I can find another place. I'm sure they'll be fine, though. At this point I just need someone to force me to talk so I can practice and gain confidence.

My cold has moved into my chest, so I bought some cough syrup today. They even have sugar-free cough syrup here!

The weather has been pretty nice that last 3 days. 68-70 degrees, but with the humidity it still feels pretty warm. It's interesting, I guess I'm not used to the humidity. This morning on the subway I'm wearing a short-sleeved short and sweating a little. Almost everyone else has on either a jacket or a sweater. I would have died wearing that much clothing.
