1. Her accent is.. noticeably foreign, but she's totally understandable.
2. I actually have no idea about that!
Well the entire money plan is...
The trip costs $7300. I have to get $5000 + spending money (allegedly.)
So that means I have to raise $5500.
I hope to get $1500 from holidays/babysitting/odd jobs/etc
So that's $4000 from my job.
At $7/hr, that's about 571.5 hours I need to work. Add more because they do take a tax on my earning.
So say.. I need to work 600 hours.
I'm starting now, working about 8 hours per weekend (I hope)
Then when they open full time in June, one of the supervisors said that I could get up to 40 hours per week. Since I'm 16, there's not really a limit =P
And then I'll also be working on weekends again in the fall. So I'm hoping to be able to make $4000 through my job.
And I'm sure if I'm close, my parents will help.. and relatives. It's a lot of money xD
And I get a
tiny allowance >_>
Seriously. Like... four dollars a week. Better than nothing but..
Well technically I get $10 a week, but I have to put half in the bank and one dollar to offering at church. My parents don't believe in free money >_>
I already do have a bank account, but I'm not allowed to use the money from it yet ><
My mom just deposits half my allowance there.

I can understand what you mean. But too bad....other then video games I was hoping they enjoyed their own original language more, and thus would be a good resource (fun too).

I think that you thought I was referring to Saina here, but I was talking about my parents. Saina and her family do love their language, and she teaches me a ton of random vocab. Colors, numbers, phrases, etc. Enough so that I get my languages a bit confused already!
Someone in Spanish class asked how to say "Wait!", and I told them "Matte!" without thinking! =P
Or today when I was trying to think of "dream"... "sueno" in Spanish (with a ~ on the n), but all I could remember was "yume"!
On the other hand, my parents know nothing about languages. Though I talk to my mom in Spanish a lot since she grew up in Southern CA, so she knows a TINY bit xD!!
"Donde esta mi gato...?"
Rawrrr! I love languages, culture, and travel so freaking much ._.
I want to visit: Japan, UK, France, Spain, Italy, Greece, China, Australia, South Korea and Germany...
And I want to learn like, all of their languages =P
I will be... decilingual! Or something >_<
