Anyone in the mood for an impromptu Sunday Spanish conversation can come join this Google+ chat I made: https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/76cpjelr9ng3e627eesbr52f1 c?hl=en
I'll probably be there for an hour or so.

Hey, that's great.
So, are there any challenges at the moment?
And are there any obligatory tasks? Like doing a log entry every day/ week? Reading
everything here? (because 30 pages are a lot to catch up with) whatever?

Sorry I haven't updated my log recently. I'm still around, still studying Spanish. Are any of you lobos starting a
Spanish Super Challenge in 3 days?! I am!
I also just noticed that our resource place holder on the first page is still empty. I take it that means everyone has
what they need at the moment, but don't hesitate to ask for anything! Since the SC is coming, I personally would
love any book recommendations. I've done the Harry Potter thing and now i'm ready for "real" Spanish books. Maybe
our Godfather could suggest some classics? Maybe even easy classics, like the ones everyone has to read in high
school or something?

I'd like to try the super challenge, however, I also have to get into this twitter
thing (I know it's actually not obligatory, because the challenge primarily is for
oneself, but when I try, I want to do the real thing=)
But I think, I go for the half challenge, because I'm just on A1-2 in Spanish and don't
have that much time and with reading I'm sooo slow even in my mother tongue (need at
least 2 weeks for each HP book), so with unknown words all over the pages it's even
more slow...
I'm also open to links to any beginner Spanish resources.. I understand quite a lot,
when I hear or read or watch from the context, but I'm not able to form good sentences
etc. But I just don't really know where to start. I'm a bit unstructured at the moment
and do the things more half way than intensive... I just have so much other work going
on..

Good for you! I'm sure the SC will help, even if you're only able to accomplish a little bit.
What resources have you been using so far? Then we can suggest ones that you might not know about yet.
