The saga of OSL
It's true, you can't teach an old dog new tricks.Make no mistake about it I am all for people expanding their education and for the most part, it's never too late to go back to school. However, with that being said, why do I always get the people whom should have just stuck with their former careers? I mean seriously, all I have to say about OSL is sweetbabyjesuswithacowlick!!
I'm convinced Jimmy (the instructor) calls on her just to make the rest of us laugh. If I was a betting man, I would also bet he tells his collegues about her and her futile attempts at the Spanish language just so they can roll with side-splitting laughter. I know I have a hard time not bursting out with loud guffaws.
We've been in Spanish for almost 8 weeks now. This is an every day class, five days a week. Eventually, something has to stick right? I mean even through osmosis something positive has to take place right?
Not with her. We've been over and over and over the numbers. Numbers. NUMBERS!! For fuck's sake, it's not that hard. Today, we were supposed to pick a number between 1 and 501. She thought for a bit and then blurted out "Unos." Jimmy whipped his head around with the "Did she really just say that?" look on his face. I couldn't even laugh because I was in so much shock. Even on the card game, it's still uno.
I looked at Kelsey sitting next to me and promptly scrawled a letter to God that said:
Dear God,
Can you please send her back to Seasame Street?
Thanks
All of Span 111
One of these days, I'm going to scream out "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!" and be done with it.
