¡¡Nuestra Paralee tiene 10,000!!

Question

Our very own maestra, Paralee Whitmire, has reached the 10,000 reputation mark! (Well, to be precise, she has 9,963 reputation points, but that is close enough to celebrate the occasion!)

Paralee, our appreciation for your many contributions to this Website could never be fully detailed in words. You are one of the many heroes/heroines that have made learning a new language so fun and exciting! I promote your videos whenever I hear anyone mention even thinking of learning Spanish. You are the best!

Additionally, although this has already been covered in a previous thread, I would like to congratulate you on your engagement and wish you and your soon-to-be hubby all the best!

To sum it all up, YOU ROCK!!!

I hope it is not considered cheating that I gave her a bunch of votes to push her to this point... I just got tired of waiting for the celebration to begin!!! :-p - danrivera, Jun 20, 2011

lol, well, but you were the first to notice, as you posted on the café days ago, good for you, danny:) - 00494d19, Jun 20, 2011

Heidita left me a comment that led me to think of this, so thank you, Heidita, for the inspiration! - danrivera, Jun 20, 2011

Jeje... I agree... great job dan. Our favorite teacher in the world will surely be honored. :-) - DJ_Huero, Jun 20, 2011

Just to avoid any criticizm, I had already maxed out at 200 points for the day before I posted this thread. I wanted to make sure this was about Paralee. - danrivera, Jun 20, 2011

Good stuff Dan. There will be a few people cursing you though - celebrating Paralee is surely worth good 300ish reps and associated badges :P - billygoat, Jun 20, 2011

Should the title be "Nuestro Paralee..." since I am speaking on behalf of a mixed group and I myself am male? - danrivera, Jun 20, 2011

Yea I would agree, many have wanted to host this thread for a long time, but you did well. You know you're valuable when people have a race to congratulate you eh? - DJ_Huero, Jun 20, 2011

Anyways, to answer your question, I agree with you, it should be an "o" not an "a". =) - DJ_Huero, Jun 20, 2011

must admit, i thought the 'our' went with Paralee so it should be nuestra. I'm probably wrong though lol - billygoat, Jun 20, 2011

billy, you did well, the rest dunce corner it is for you, jeje, unless paralee herself pardons you of course;) - 00494d19, Jun 20, 2011

Jeje... I just said it sounded reasonable, I didn't do it. ;-P - DJ_Huero, Jun 20, 2011

Ooops. Doh! :-) - danrivera, Jun 20, 2011

well thank you Heidita! However, the dunces corner does sound more fun! - billygoat, Jun 20, 2011

Answer 1

Thank you all for the kind words. I don't know if there is another teacher in this whole world who has students as awesome as you guys. I am printing out every post to this thread and hanging them on my wall in my office. Students like you inspire me to keep teaching and spread the love of Spanish!

Paralee, your dedication to us, as your students, is worthy of much more than what we could say here. Thank you, so much!! - danrivera, Jun 22, 2011

Btw, you make me proud to call Atlanta home (I will actually be visiting my parents next month). - danrivera, Jun 22, 2011

(yes this was done in paint because I'm at work.. if time permits I will make better at home because Paralee deserves the bestest)

I have been eagerly awaiting this day... you have long deserved much more Paralee. You are a priceless asset to this site and many people who share the common passion to learn Spanish (or English). Many thanks and congrats!

Shake it like a salt shaker...jajaja! That's hilarious! - SonrisaDelSol, Jun 20, 2011

¡Felicitaciones Paralee en tu éxito porque has cumplido 10K puntos de reputación!
