I only know some of the words she is using.
I think she is asking me to make choices.
I didn't understand what she is saying, but am thankful for the realia.  I am going to need to depend my colleagues who know the language. ]]> 2018-06-26 17:13:50 UTC https://padlet.com/melendezquinteroc/theexperienceofanewcomer/wish/268628665 Feelings https://padlet.com/melendezquinteroc/theexperienceofanewcomer/wish/268628702
I'm frustrated because I don't know for sure what she is asking me.
Anxious - how long is she going to go until I understand what she is saying?

frustrated that I didnt understand, became disengaged
