¿Hablas español?

Spanish 101.... ¿Hablas español? Say what?!

I'm taking Spanish this semester, what a sexy language! It just makes me wanna get up and do the Shakira 'Hips don't Lie' move. Who am I kidding though, I can't dance like Shakira and I sure as heck can't speak Spanish. Poor o'unco-ordinated me ! If I have any inklings of graduating this Spring I need to be proficient with español, yeah, that's what's up!! I can't understand why this language is so arduous for me, I swear..... I have had sleepless nights just thinking about it. But why?? For goodness sake I can conversate in 5 different languages (English, Japanese, Tok Pisin, Kuanua, Toaripi) and understand 1 (Melpa). So what is my problem?( says the pikinini that comes from a country that has over 800 different languages). The only reasonable explanation that I can give right now is I'm Not Feelin It! Ask me again at the end of May and see what plays out...maybe I'll get lucky!!!
