Born in Mexico, but when my parents emigrated to the states when I was just 9 months old, they both taught me English so they could prepare me for school. It was probably for the better. My mom couldn't speak English at the time, so it was extremely difficult for me to communicate with her since I knew English and only English at the time. Until I was 10 or so years old (probably younger), I was finally taught Spanish. The advantage was that we lived in a Spanish-speaking city, and listening to Spanish-speaking music helped a ton.

Immigrant aka Razor Leaf: "jeg er ien ärelender" (or however that goes) Student A: "I-O DO-O NOT-O SPEAK-O SPANISH-O" Student B: "Look at that dumbass!" Parent A: "oh no! It's an immigrant! It's probably illegal!" <- notice my use of "it" rather than "he/she" Parent B: "We need to deport it immediately before it gets to the jobs!" Me: "Weren't you guys not already using-" Parents A&B: "OH CRAP ANOTHER IMMIGRANT" --RL and I get deported immediately-- |
Aw man, first day of school without being able to communicate? I'd probably have wet my pants before I made the teacher realize I wanted to use the bathroom. :I
Thinking back, I actually don't remember if I knew English in my first year of school. I'm petty sure I did, considering I'd hang around with a couple of the other kids, but I also knew Bengali off the top of my head. I have to ask my parents what happened. And while I didn't see it, my friends said that MoS was indeed overhyped. I feel like they said that only cause we went ahead and saw the Purge instead. :O |
In a way, I agree with the whole.. it's easier to learn if you're living there. You're exposed to it every day, so if you WANT to learn, you're thrown in the deep end right there and you can push yourself to use it to the fullest extent.

Hii! Happy here. Today needs a haiku!
again once again looking at one another: again, please, again! |
Blah, are you a poet.
Also, what's your name, if you don't mind me asking. Felt very awkward typing the first sentence. |
Quote:
good username, I tend to degrade myself there. |
Word! I am John. John I am. Would you like green eggs and ham?
poet I am not inspired though I am, by the three fingered one ^-- this one turned out pretty well imo. |
This is a haiku
I don't know what to say next Haha epic fail I knew there was a reason I didn't take poetry in school.... |
Quote:
cause you can say anything as long as it fits even if it cuts corners |
in the brief moment
a grasshopper flits away: the haiku's beauty |
and for a moment
I don't really know what is happening here |
meow meow meow meow meow
meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow My haiku is obviously best. Blah today feels really long ._. Long days are so tiring.... |
I dunno Kura, it was kinda repetitive. Kinda.
I literally just woke up, but I'm reallllly tired. Seems like the day couldn't get much slower lol |
i still get ignored
everytime i post in the DCC indeed |
I haven't written
a haiku in a long time they're interesting |
I am bored at work
So I will write a haiku. Wait, now it's over. |
This DCC will
close in exactly 2 days already called dibbs. Suckas. <3 |
when you're near the end
do you fight to your last breath or just let it be |
Since when did people
here in the Daily-Chit Chat turn so poetic? |
Haiku is so lame
It is such a frickin' drag Octopus Potato .... As you can see, I'm not quite as poetic as the rest of you. |
oct'pus potato:
does it taste like calamar or has it eight legs? |
why are we
all speaking in haiku idgi Quote:
The above applies to much of the DCC lately, actually. I feel that conversation as in people talking to people is at an all-time low and it's basically the equivalent of a constantly-changing OVP thread. Fix this in the next DCC, people? |
Quote:
you'd better speak in haiku or else we ignore |
alas; my dcc-improving efforts
have failed spectacularly fml |
