You stink! I only know three and I want to know five by the time I'm out of highschool but that's a stretch. Sheesh! 13?!? I think your bluffing. Which ones do you know?

Lol. Wow that's a lot of languages. How did you learn arabic? Did you just get a self help book or like a tutor?

My parents expect only the highest linguistic skills of me..and it sucks...I am still learning english though...ugh..it isn't as cool as it sounds...people all the time are like "how do you say this and this and this is so and so language" I'm like "Go screw yourself..." lol...it really gets annoying after a while, but I try to be nice about it...I was taught arabic on a trip to Israel and I was there for 2 weeks, very interesting, I came back, and from then, I was taught by a personal tutor from Israel, very interesting actually ...buttt...it does have its disadvantages

I wish I was in your shoes. If I could I would spend all my free time learning languages. *sighs wishing she was Noel* lucky...

I'd take the voice lessons, languages, highest grade expectations, and maybe even the ballet. I know its not as easy as it looks from here by far, but I would love for my afternoons to be full of studying. I'm so weird but I like studying and reading more than anything else I think
