A little language lesson

I haven't recieved a packet of information regarding the trip or the OK to send out support letters (which I'm trying not to stress about and leave it in God's hands...it's hard for me not to stress, it has something to do with being a nursing student), but I keep reciving these little emails telling me what to bring and how to speak. Here is a little lesson on the basic phrases, I hope they don't expect me to memorize this..I don't think I have enough memory space... my favorite phrase is the very last one...I wish that to all of you!
