A Trekking Journal

November 12, 1997

Today (be)________ the second day of my trek around Mount Annapurna. I am exhausted and my legs (shake)

_____________________ ; I just hope I am able to complete the trek. My feet (kill, really) ____________

____________________me and my toes (bleed)_______________________, but I (want,

still)______________________ __________________to continue.

Nepal is a fascinating country, but I have a great deal to learn. Everything (be) ________________ so different,

and I (try)__________________to adapt to the new way of life here. I (learn) ______________________ a little bit

of the language to make communication easier; unfortunately, I (learn, not) ______________________ foreign

languages quickly. Although I (understand, not)_________________________ much yet, I believe that I (improve,

gradually)________________ I (travel, currently) _________________with Liam, a student from Leeds University

in England. He (be) ______________________a nice guy, but impatient. He (walk, always)

_____________________ ____________________ahead of me and (complain)

_________________________________that I am too slow. I (do) ____________________my best to keep up with

him, but he is younger and stronger than I am. Maybe, I am just feeling sorry for myself because I am getting old.

Right now, Liam (sit) _____________________with the owner of the inn. They (discuss) _____________________

the differences between life in England and life in Nepal. I (know, not) _____________________the real name of

the owner, but everybody (call, just) ______________________him Tam. Tam (speak) ____________ English very

well and he (try) ____________________to teach Liam some words in Nepali. Every time Tam (say)

________________ ______________a new word, Liam (try) _________________________to repeat it.

Unfortunately, Liam (seem, also) ______________________to have difficulty learning foreign languages. I just hope

we don't get lost and have to ask for directions.
