What efforts have I put into learning to speak Espanol, and which were the most fun?

I enrolled in free Spanish classes at work--Spanish, 1, 2 and 3.

I then joined a meet up at a coffee house

But that didn't work so well. The people were too advanced and it was frustrating.

I made CDs to listen to in the car.

I heard about a free class at the Multicultural Center, and joined that.

I also found "Destinos" online and started watching that.

I bought books at Half Price Books

I ordered a Spanish dictionary from Amazon.

I practiced with my bilingual sister in person.

I emailed with another bilingual sister.

I got a Spanish phrase a day calendar for Christmas.

I met over coffee with a coworker on a somewhat regular basis.

And then I fell out of practice for months.

Then I found duolingo on the web.

And now I am trying to get back into practice. It takes discipline.
