my student called me “Hay-shell-zin-ya” today. this is better than “hey, English, come here,” but i still gotta work on it. They can’t say Rachel, so they say “Hay-Shell” and then the “zin-ya” is a Portuguses way of saying “oh, the cute little…” and then the name. it was rather funny. and sweet. and patronizing.

Hhmmm…”Hay-shell-zin-ya”…I likes the sound.
AAaagh! What happened to the colors?!
LOL
Hahaha
Cute story…
How have you been? I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been making my commenting rounds, lately. It seems that you always seem to pop into my thoughts now and again..
We all love ya Rachel, and miss ya lots!
I’ve had to get on my kids for calling me “Miter Hey” … instead of “Mister Hess.” Dominican Spanish likes to drop off the “s” in words. I thought the kids were just trying to be annoying untill I had parents call me “Miter Hey.”
loved the story. found your xanga! haha again…
LOL!!!!
Yo Hay-Shell long time no talk to hope everything is going great there! What’s ur address there again? cuz I’m sure it would be encouraging to get a letter in the mail.~Corey
