Yep. Though it gets tiring when it doesn't end. xD

Still, it's funny how much Spanish is just buried in my subconscious.

Start with one romance language and conquer the rest more easily, or so it seems! I level 10'd Italian and Spanish which I have zero proficiency in based on guesswork off French knowledge (terms learnt in piano helped for Italian too) - etymology is a beautiful thing :]

I can do basic conversation, but my aim is to read fluently because truth be told, much like learning Chinese learning Japanese w/o kanji is worthless X'D All those damn homophones!

Oh, I love that website! :D I play a couple rounds during my spare time, and it feels nice to be contributing something. <3

Hmmm... I've never played with the subject categories though... I should go try that out. :D

Whoo! I'm legal where you are and yet...not at the same time. XD

Thank you though~ :D My birthday is already off to a good start!

I love Freerice.com. I'm happy there are more subjects to choose from too! It also feels pretty awesome to be helping out any way I can <3

Haha, enjoy being legal and all the fun extras XD ♥

More subjects ftw, although I doubt I'll ever touch chemistry which was my worst high school subject X'D

Haha, oh I definitely will. <3

Yeah, though Chemistry is a HELL NO. When I found out I didn't have to take chemistry cause if the type of college I was applying to (Art school) I gladly dropped it and took Anatomy instead. :D

Ah Anatomy, so useful for writing unnecessarily detailed porn

Oh, I remember that website! I hardly ever got the answers right. But it sounds like it has gotten better so I might go at it again. If I could master any language overnight... it would probably be... Chinese, or French or Japanese. IDK. XD

Ayu icon ♥ Her story broke my heart ;w;

French is so elegant but the pronunciation is so tricky DX Everytime I need a reminder why people who learn English as a second/third etc. language have trouble pronouncing words I simply read a French passage - bam!instant empathy XD
