    I don't even like koalas that much. I prefer the man eating crocodiles.

    And kangaroos look delicious.

    Hell, I ended up speaking mostly English when I was in Germany and Italy, too. We were mostly on the tourist track anyway, and no on seemed interested in speaking German with me. I wasn't that terrible!
    だってlanguages are funだよ!

    I strongly suggest studying at least one foreign language, even if it's just slowly and in your free time. I don't like the thought of anyone missing out on something so fun and rewarding~

    Well, that rep was wasteful.

    Now it's stuck at 3% and says it will take 2.5 hrs to download.

    Edit: gonna have to use another seven proxies...

    I've studied Spanish, German and Latin. I've gotten my fair share of studying done.

    Also, if there's one thing I don't want to do when I do manage to get free time, it's study.

    I know. I mean continuing with one and not resigning yourself to being just an English speaker, though. Being bilingual is too much fun~!

    I remember you were studying Spanish in your free time a while back. Still going at it?

    I'm happy that I'm now at a point where "let's study Japanese!" actually means "let's play some vidya gaems!".

    Mind blown, rite? Like this guy.



    /blatant excuse to post that

    That was like a year ago when I still had free time and wasn't continuously exhausted all the time. No.

    I have too much I need to learn for work, and not enough energy or brain matter left over to want to study much of anything else. I will eventually have a master's, but it will have nothing to do with foreign languages.

    And I think being able to read and understand doctor's notes is just as difficult and useful as a second language, anyway.
