I cannot overstate how much this has made my life easier. Spanish school are the best way to go with a one on one teacher. live close to a beach and go surfing and eat good food drink beer and relax.

Are there hospital interpreters for residents who don't speak spanish?

Oh, and sleep in as much as possible. When you do get up, watch a little mtv as you munch down some captain crunch and drink mountain dew. Do not get dressed before noon though, or very bad things will start happening...
