American Samoa National Anthem
Amerika Samoa
lo’u atunu’u pele ‘oe
Oute tiu i lou igoa
O oe o lo’u fa’amoemoe
O oe o le penina o le Pasefika
E mo’omia e motu e lima
E ua ta’uta’ua au aga i fanua
ma ou tala mai anamua
Tutuila ma Manu’a
ala mai ia, tu i luga
Tautua ma punou i lou malo
ia manuia ia ulu ola
Amerika Samoa
O le malo o le sa’olotoga
No matter what part of the world you stay,
Who you are will never fade away.
It comes and goes with time,
Grows continuously with life,
Look for my last line (in the title)
This is a recollection of my daily activities that account for my everyday efforts to move towards graduation. What I do today, will affect me tomorrow; And because there is no promise of tomorrow - Carpe Dium...

Podcast Review
SLS 418 - Thursday, Sept. 30, 2010
Today we were tasked to listen to a podcast from iTunes. I personally picked learning Spanish from the quick links section under Language Learning. The screen opens up to a list of podcasts to listen to - I chose Spanish Survival. Furthermore, the link offers you more options, specifically what context or situation would you like to learn Spanish; I clicked on "Introducing Yourself". The blog runs for about 10 mins and it was a productive 10 mins. I learned more than I would have on my own, reading from a book. The podcast was effective in that the facilitator (male voice) pronounced each phrase or salutation, broke it down into its individual components - como is how , adios - a : preposition, dios : meaning God - put together - go with God; offering them a blessing or simply farewell. Salutations progressed from introducing yourself in the day time, afternoon and night time and responses to each greeting. Its a really cool program. You should check it out. There's other languages you can also look up so if you find something that interests you - GO FOR IT... CARPE DIUM
