The best part about my women's health elective is that I get to speak a lot of Spanish. Which pretty much totally rocks. Anyway, I was translating for my supervising nurse practitioner today, and a Mexican-American patient asked me, "Where did you learn Spanish?" (obviously asked this in Spanish). I answered, "I majored in Spanish in college." She replied, "Oh, I thought you were Spanish. Your Spanish is really good." A native speaker mistook me for a native speaker from another country! That absolutely made my day.
On a side note, I am awesome at Pap smears now.
