Tu hablas espanol? Muy bien! Yo lo hablo tambien, y he estudiado por siete anos. Estoy empezando hablar con fluidez. Para estos que no lo hablan, usan un programa de traducir.

Anyway, thanks for letting us get to know you better. You've made it to 100...now for 1000!

Somebody's cheating. Estudio espanol dos a la universidad tambien. I'm not really good at it, but do pretty well on the tests. Anyway, *picks up a mic and screams* OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED!
Yeah, that's out of my system. What is your favorite color?? Later

[cbwing0]

Somebody's cheating.

I think not. No necesito usar un programa de traducir, pero yo dije que otros personas pueden usarlas si necesitan.

[Kokhiri Sojourn]

Comprendo. Lo siento. A mi me espanol es no bien. I read and hear better than I write and speak. Sorry to clutter your space, Convoy.

[Rachel]

no problemo. i don't speak spanish all that well. but enough to get by. and my favorite color would have to be between red, green, blue, and camo.

[cbwing0]

I have a question:

juege videojuegos? Si tu haces, que es su juegos favoritos?

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Translation: Do you play videogames? If so, what are your favorites?

> Para estos que no lo hablan, usan un programa de traducir.

Quizás debe decir, "debe usar programa de traducción" o algo como eso.

[Rachel]

every once in a while i'll play a video game if i have the time, my favorites would have to be the only ones that i've ever played. mortal kombat, street fighter, gran tourismo, space channel 5, and though i hate to admit because the guy is such a sellout- tony hawk pro skater. yeah that would have to be about it. oh yeah and nba street. that's pretty fun.

[true_noir_chloe]

I came on this thread and whoa, everybody's speaking Spanish.

I'm of Latina heritage and other Hispanics usually call me a gringa because I don't know Spanish worth a flip, even though three out of four of my grandparents only spoke Spanish. I'm so pathetic.

Hi convoy,:) I'm glad you told us a little more about yourself. We watch American Idol, too. It's a riot.

I have some questions: How many siblings do you have, and what do you want to be when you grow up?

I also have to add I think you're one of the funniest members here.

[Rachel]

well, i have three (3) brothers and two (2) sisters so there's six of us kids altogether my oldest brother aaron doesn't live with us though b/c he's in the army.

i'm not sure i know what i want to be when i grow up. i used to always think that i would be a lawyer, but lately i've been thinking about being an english teacher or a forensic psychologist. but i do still want to be a rock star or an actress.

[Rachel]

ooh i just thought of some more random stuff that y'all probably don't want to know.

i play guitar and sing for a band. our name is 83 Pieces. it used to be Convoy Butterfly.

i have a hole in the toe of my left sock.

i screwed up my knee again. i have to get an mri on monday.

if i could be anyone in the world i would be myself because i see no point in wasting my time trying to be someone else or something that i'm not.

i am a native texan. go abilene! reprazent the southwest yo!

i like putting random quotes in my sig.

and uh yeah. that's about it for random facts about me for now. peace homeskillets!

[Kireihana]

Yay! Me gusta mucha hablar espanol tambien! Estudi muchos anos, pero nunca hablo bien! Lo siento! Siempre necesito ayuda de mi profesor...

*cough* I couldnt resist. Hey, I like a lot of the same bands you do! What other kind of stuff do you like? Do you like to draw? And it's nice to see another southerner on the board, even if you're from the west, lol. Where they don't have sweet tea at their McDonalds. (what's up with y'all?!)

[Rachel]

hahaha...and you people thought that i was done with the random info didn't you?

i just finished my term theme thingy. i did it on emily dickinson. very interesting lady.

mi llamo (?) en espanol es raquel.

i distrust short people with bad hair. and just short people in general. but especially if they have bad hair.

i have a chipped tooth from getting hit in the face with a volley ball during pe one day.

my favorite soda is cherry coke or mountain dew.

i want candy

i'm hyper right now

[Rachel]

Where they don't have sweet tea at their McDonalds. (what's up with y'all?!)

we do so have tea at our mcdonalds! i never drink it though because i hate it. but we do have it.

[Rachel]

okay well i just read through this and i noticed that there were some gaps in it as far as educational and career plans and some other stuff. but first let me get all sillyness (sp?) out of my system. hgalkghoiutafkjhckuekutmonkeyhfglkhairkjtastesgghlgood!!! *sighs* ahh much better.

education: i am a junior in high school. i used to go to a private school and before that i was homeschooled so they held me back a year when i went there. after i graduate, i plan on going to college to major in either english or psychology and then getting my masters in whichever one i major in. or quite possibly both.

career: i used to want to be a lawyer, but i've pretty much scrapped that idea. right now i'm thinking of being a teacher or a psychologist. i would also like to do something with the government, like with the fbi or something. my ultimate goal of being president has not changed.

interests/hobbies: comedy- i really like to make people laugh, so whatever my future career is, i might do a little stand up on the side
reading- it's the reason i have glasses, but the things keep getting broken. darn you contact sports!
sports- soccer - my favorite sport of all time. i used to play it until i hurt my knee. the best position would have to be sweeper. it's a great way to get anger out of your system. football is my second favorite sport. my favorite team is not the cowboys, but the texans and the titans.
music- i love music and making it, although i'm not so good at making it yet. lizzie is always complaining that my radio is on all the time, which it isn't. i turn it off when i go to sleep.

manga: excel saga- haha, this is so stupid it's hilarious
fruits basket
trigun
magic knight rayearth (sp?)

anime: excel saga
i don't really remember the names of the other ones that i've seen, but they were good

fav movies: harriet the spy
x-men
spider-man
some like it hot
breakfast at tiffanys
unbreakable
conspiracy theory
bringing up baby
ferris buellers day off
the princess diaries- a good movie but the books are so much better
lilo and stitch
finding nemo
forrest gump

fav joke: would probably get in trouble for saying it here

2nd fav joke: two muffins are sitting in an oven baking when one muffin says, " boy it's hot in here!" what does the other muffin say? " holy cow, a talking muffin!"
