Hey Dan, Nathaniel here. Friend me. Do it.

Oh, and Jamaica is one of the three most awesome places that I have been to; it's just an incredible place with an awesome attitude towards life. Travelling is good for the soul, and your mind. You can't truly participate in the world unless you've experienced it. c'ya in school Monday.

Friended.

Jamaica is an awesome place. You are right, the best thing there was the attitude that nothing is really worth stressing over, because it made life so much more enjoyable.

Peace

Hey Dan, remember when I said in spanish that I think it would be so cool to know every language? Well yeah. I definately agree that one of the things that would make someone the ultimate person would be the ability to communicate with ANYONE. I just think knowing every language would be so cool. Somewhat impossible at our age though for biological reasons, but still. One can dream...

Hey liz, I remember! It would be impossible to learn every language, especially since at some point you would just start forgetting all of the languages you learned earlier in your life. Plus, it would be no good if you didn't actually use each language. But hey, I hope to learn many languages and use them all.

I am insanely jealous of people who can learn languages easily, even at an older age. I don't know if there's a term for it, but I will be forever jealous. If only there weren't language barriers.

I am jealous too. I dont know if I can learn languages easily or not. I definitely know Im not really like a language master or anything, since I only speak Spanish and English. On one hand, I wish there weren't language barriers, but on the other hand I am glad that there are. It helps make the world a bit bigger, more mysterious. Though you can see all different parts of the planet, it isn't as easy to experience a place as getting on a plane.

I agree on the part about barriers, I didn't mean to say that the world should be all one language or something similar. It would be awfully boring, then.
