There is no doubt that NYC is a diverse place. You can find people from every nationality here.
However, I have learnt it the ‘hard’way, over the course of my stay here that learning a bit of Spanish does come in handy. I live in a predominantly Hispanic neighbourhood in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
So it was bright and sunny beautiful NY morning. Why would I ever pay attention to a sign that reads ‘Cuidado Piso Mojado’. Sounded like a Ricky Martin song.
Well, let me just say I’m enrolling for Spanish 101 ay NYU. I have special place in the corner of the wall so that I can stand and listen to the lectures.

Scene thaangalai. However, if you were to seriously enrol for Spanish 101 at NYU, I think the whole World will know why, and that, thankfully will prevent you from putting up a post explaining your *ahem* reasons for enrolling.
P.S.
