Well, it didn't go as well with the mint as I had hoped, although I did still make it to where I wanted to go in the end. I have now completed about 1.5 sprigs of mint. The others are more in the background and are mostly the right color already.
In other news, I had my first Portuguese lesson. It went super well. My teacher is very focused, professional, and encouraging. She uses a bunch of communication techniques that I've heard before (repeating what you say, summarizing at the end). She also speaks incredibly slow. She says that listening comprehension will be the hardest, because it is the hardest for everyone. I especially have trouble, because I ignore everyone if they aren't speaking to me.
Now, to bed!
