So I`m still not too cool for school.  I`m back to taking classes again.  There`s one verb tense called the subjuntivo that I have yet to learn.  It`s the most complicated tense in Spanish, but is necessary to learn if I`m really going to have a decent handle on the language.

Aura, mi maestra, has told me that she can teach it to me in 2 weeks if we really focus.  I`ve been told that its basically the kind of thing you can learn in a few weeks, but takes about a year or so to really understand.
