So I have decided to contribute to Carla and Faviola´s college fund.
Since Stella corrects me about 3 times per sentence, she suggested that I need some sort of motivation for catching my mistakes before they happen. She proposed that I put 25 quetzale centivos (about 3 cents US) into some sort of piggy bank every time she catches me make the same mistake.
Lovely
After searching for a few minutes, she returned with this little gem… a bank para niňas.
She suggested that I get a lock for it… because pretty soon this things gonna be loaded.
And how practical, it even has a handle so that I can carry it around with me.
OMG!! are you serious?? it’s so cute!!
and how great it’s pink also!!
aaaaaaaaa
you probably won’t make any mistake anymore since you do not want to take it out from your bag!
nice!!
centavos! add the 25 cents!
give him a break otto… i hear 25 centavos goes a helluva lot further down there… properly invested (not now, but a bit later on) those girls will have a serious stockpile of centavos for liquidation into education, in say twenty twenty five?
if I had put aside a nickel for every mistake I ever made… language or otherwise… I would by some mysterious force be a very rich man!
That sounds like a plan!
Marley, I think you´ve stumbled onto something…
Hey Brian,
Carrying that around,you will really fit in with the natives. So much for a low profile. The gringo with the pink pocketbook!!!!……lol

How about posting a picture of yourself with or without this little gem!
