i loved england ! but it never really felt like a foreign country though. i felt at home there just as much as i do here. got al ot of friends very quickly so that was great ^_^ everyone was so polite there! and more importantly so well manered 0.o and the city was so big and awesome ! wish i lived there instead of here... i miss those tea sipping pricks :(

dyslexia is very annoying, but i can manage. numbers aren't to much of a problem but long words or pages with tiny words are....or long tiny words XD i wanted to become a pilot in the airforce but i wasn't allowed because of my dyslexia. to bad.

traveling long distances is something i hear a lot in america. it's so big driving for 2/3 hours is almost completely normal. if i need to go to school/work i just ride my bike for 15 minutes and i'm there. i can drive all the way through the Netherlands in about 4 hours hahaha :P

and well you can't blame americans for not speaking multiple languages. english is known pretty well all around the world and it's not like there are any foreign countries close to it accept for mexico depending on what state. so why learn languages like german,polish,flemish,swedish. it's not like you're ever going to use it.

the Netherlands however is literally attached to Belgium germany and luxemburg. so you meet allot of people from their. especially if you live in the south (limburg province where the dialect sounds a lot like german) people up north hate us for it cause they don't understand it. it's like a secret code :O "limburgs" and german isn't the same though ;) not even close.

but most of us speak dutch and english fluently and we're able to understand south-african because we speak dutch :) people in limburg (that dutch province) can speak 2 german-dutch dialects called "plat" and "maastrichts". but that is just a dialect though that doesn't really count i guess.

i went to elementary in Belgium so i can speak belgian or flemish fluently as well.

i can also speak german rather good because i have austrian heritage. my dad and my grandma speak german because my grandma doesn't know any dutch so i picked that up from them.

and i took german in highschool for 4 years...

but how is german not far appart of english? it doesn't sound anything alike 0.o i know it's al lot like dutch but english?
