I know, right? You'd think so! But, you'd be surprised. ): And, that's pretty cool, Team Fail. o.o;
How did you even manage to take it?

Do you have to take French/learn it depending on the part of Canada you live in? oo;

I'm in Ontario and you have to take it up till the first year of Highschool ._. I'm not sure about other areas of Canada, though..

Sounds like me... except, I would never want to mess up someone else's place/make someone else clean it up.
 
This place is kinda overwhelming to be perfectly honest. As much as I'd like to get into this, I feel stupid 'cause I don't understand most of what you guys / gals / adrogenes talk about with IV's, EV's and the like. Ah well, immersion at the deep end?
Mentioning Immersion, does anyone like Pendulum here?

Well, in my neck of the woods, it's completely optional to take FSL (French as a Second Language). You can begin in Grade 4, but you can start any time. In High School, I'm taking French 10-9 Y, which is the version that is the "non-beginner's" French class. There is also the beginner's French class, too. In Canada, most Government jobs require you to know French, but I'm taking it for the benefit of knowing another language.

L'examen DALF is a National level exam that has two parts, Oral and Written. You would normally have to pay hundreds of dollars, but since there are examiners within my city, I only had to pay fifty dollars. This payment is like a down payment, if you don't take the test, you don't get it back, but if you do take it, then, well... You get it back.

That's pretty neat :o
I wish we had that where I went to school. ;-;

Uhh. This is the Daily Chit Chat in Other Chat. We aren't even talking about Pokemon XD; Not all of the sections here are even about Pokemon :p
And, not everyone worries about IVs/EVs/etc. It's whatever the person wants to do.

Welcome to PC, by the way. Don't feel intimidated . . and if you have any questions/etc, you can PM me or any other staff member :)
 
Oh, that's cool. Lol. That'd be amazing if we started our kids off learning that kind of stuff. ~-~;

Make the "F" in "Failure" lowercase and it'll be fine :P

It's called an Immersion program. You start your child learning French from kindergarten. This can apply with any language, make sure to look into it, there's usually long lines to sign kids up into it. I've been in a French Immersion program since kindergarten, and I'm glad to say I'm fully bilingual. : D
 
Learning Jap is probably done better early, when you have better language learning capabilities simply because it's harder to learn and it'd take much longer when you're older.
 
I used to have Latin learning lessons before, but I got kicked out, I was too lazy to turn up. :(
 
Pfft you did better than me.

The teacher I had was a true jerk, he told me I was probably never going to accomplish anything in life because I forgot to turn in one assignment.

So I let him know who he was dealing with, long story short I'll probably never go to the program ever again :P

That's ridiculous. If a teacher ever told me that, I'd complain to administration. lol.

omg I had a professor telling me that once (about a year ago or so). She got cranky because I didn't turn in a simple, easy assignment. I just rolled my eyes and moved on.

Again, that's crazy. I would probably get really mad, or cry, or something depending on the teacher. ):

I'm so ready for Christmas my birthday. n_n
