I'm currently learning Spanish, which will soon become my first language once I take it for a couple more years.
Other languages I hope to learn in the future are Japanese, Italian, and possibly French.

Well, I could be wrong, but I was always under the impression, like Thomas, that Spanish was fourth next to Mandarin, English and Hindi. I would check but I am watching a very intense basketball game at the moment. :laugh:

Well, I got mine off a Old Almanac from 2003, so I was the one that was wrong.
Thanks for the link, Proof!
 
My day went by rather quickly.
But I wasn't sick ;_;
Get well soon.

Gah, I hope this whole week speeds by, I need something to do when there is nothing else, and I need to be able to play games to help with my insomnia issues of late.
 
Eh? My day's just starting (9:38am readysetgo.) I have an extremely boring history class to look forward to in an hour, followed by lunch, then my public speaking class. I'm either going to do an informative speech on a particular big tournament in tennis or describe/demonstrate how to hit certain shots in tennis. I just have to pick a topic and write a general description, not actually give the speech. XD That's what I'm doing in lunch, haha.

Oh so what brand of shoes do most of you wear? Normally that topic would never cross my lips, but my friend just worked his persuasive magic to get me interested in Mizunos. I've been wearing Asics (sp?) for awhile now due to running, but now I'm totally getting these puppies:

Aaaand for even more ridic-ness, he's getting these:

XD I don't know why it's exciting, but these shoes just make me feel like I'm buying candy. They have so many kinds and colors.
 
Ok, I am pretty bored today, I am in Technology class in school and the substitute hasn't assigned anything. HUH?!

Anyways, I think Nick (Aurapostle) has been kinda cranky recently, he called me a noob for not reason XD,

Just see my VMs.

Oho same; I should search more for non-A-level courses in these for my agegroup... but I don't think there are any. :S
I really should've taken Spanish instead of food tech at my last school. D: I may well be able to go back as a sixth form student though...

I still have a slight(read: enormous) problem with translation. *sweatdrop*

Translation is always fun...
I tend to give a translation, and also state what it literally says so whoever the translation is for can interpret it how they wish.
 
Of course, I know English, (no duh), I also know Spanish. I am learning Japanese and I want to learn Italian later.

I think I know more Italian than Japanese and I've taken 3 years of Japanese classes but no Italian (0.0)

Hmm, good idea. I haven't reached that point yet myself, XD.

Heh, I apparently know more Japanese than Italian, XD. You see, the last twenty episodes of Mermaid Melody were never subtitled, so I alternated between the Japanese RAW and the Italian dub. I was a little surprised that I was able to follow the former better than the latter. XD
 
Well as for languages...
I know (meaning write and speak) In English of course and Tagalog (Filipino)
I'm taking Spanish as a Foreign Language since it's quite useful here in LA, SoCal. =P
I would love to learn Japanese and French as extra though. XD

@teitan: O_O Wow...5 AP's and 3 College classes...that's quite stressful. =/

As for the cheese topic...I don't care really as long as it's edible and tastes good. ^_^
 
XD I know Spanish, Portuguese and a teeny bit of english :sarcasm: XD

To answer Volkner, I myself buy addidas. Y'know the ones with the city names on them? classy $_$

XD And I thought I was being totally ignored, haha. (or just looked over, eh..)

Those are pretty cool shoes, I'm an Adidas over Nike man myself. I mean, I own stuff from both apparel, but I just like Adidas? I can't really explain it, heh. My tennis shoes are Nike though (although I've had those for three years now, they're slightly beat up XD)

I don't know any foreign languages...I really wish I did though. I might have to take French in school anyway, so it would be a good excuse =P
 
As for VA's shoes topic...
I never really had a "favorite" shoe brand...Everytime I see the Price I'm like, WTHeck? $70 for a pair?!?!
I can frekin' buy one for $15 in China Town! They're made in the same place (AKA China) so why be choosy?

And in this economy not being choosy about personal apparel is a good thing. =D

Edit: Oh Aura...Try to learn a foreign language...It's a competitive world...As long as we don't go back to Protectionism...=/
 
Foreign languages...
They are awsome depends what you want to lean though I am totally fluent in french and german and i can tell you its not easy if you dont actually live in teh country where said language is the native toungue but good luck and if you need help just PM me

As of shoes... well i normally go buy some horse riding boots because they are comfortable and good looking in my opinion (goes with my hat)

Foreign languages? I know a bit of French, but my better subject would be Irish. I think that learning foreign languages is pointless, because whenever you go to France, Spain or somewhere else that doesn't speak English as the vernacular, everyone wants to try out their English on you and you don't get to speak with them in their language at all. That's the case in my experience, at least.

I can assure you, here in Spain the number of people older than 20 who speak English has three or four digits. Really sad, but luckily most of them are working in touristical places. But you'll find a lot of "Jelo, hawarllu", too, so I don't know if you'd understand that better than actual Spanish.
 
I look latin in High school. Didn't really get me anyhere. When I was younger I could speak pretty fluent spanish since we had to have it, but I've long forgetten that. I also took a Chiense class and remember about 3 words XD So no... I really only speak English XD
