I'm going off to my second year of college tomorrow. If someone could say something to get me excited, that be great. As it is now, I feel like throwing up.

I overheard someone in a pub say "You can't say brainstorming any more because..." Then it got noisy. As a reserved english person I didn't feel I could approach the person to ask, so I've adopted the less personal IT method. I know I shouldn't eavesdrop!

The other Spanish teacher at my school and I put on a little festival for the whole school, using Cinco de Mayo as our excuse for having our students research some aspect of some Latin American (or Spanish) culture and present what they learned in little "booths."

It went well, and I think it did a lot of the kids good to realize that not all Latinos are Mexicans, for one. Teachers loved bringing their classes, and they usually learned something too!

My question is, should we do it again? Don't worry, we will be using the date of the victory at Puebla again. However, our school year's divided 2.

We were thinking of doing something during Hispanic Heritage Month (9/15-10/15), but would it be overkill to do the same kind of thing? Should we do something different to meet the research, sharing, & celebration requirements? Maybe something like they do for Native American month: little known facts during announcements?

I'm open to suggestions!

It means like they only have it there.. like I'm doing a report on Cuba and I want to say holidays (word) to Cuba, meaning the holidays are only practiced in Cuba? I forgot the word and I keep wanting to say special or secular but I know that's not it.

I'm writing a college report on the third "chapter" (It's called Reading) in the book Walden by Henry David Thoreau. I need help with the "layout" or set-up (i guess...) of the report. I know what I want to say in the report, I just don't know how to set it up and put it on paper. Anyone who can help even just a little will be appriciated a lot, thanks.
