Only English!

[Madison Monteith]

Big Challenge is the fucking shit (sorry ) best contest I' ve ever participated in and I would love to do it for my whole life... sounds crazy but if you're crazy about English it's the best thing you can do.
Well, still a great thread, amazing that so many people love it!!!
I'm dreaming of a USA- trip to see all the states and big popular cities.
Don't think I'll ever be able to fulfill this dream.

Don't think I'll ever be able to fulfill this dream.

Nothing is impossible.
I think, If you really want it, it will become true. (:

Yes! Just don't stop dreaming that dream! If you really want to do it, for sure it will become true one day. :)
Last year at this time I wasn't sure anymore if my dream - to go abroad for one year before I start university - will really work out and I started to think about staying in Germany and do some social volunteering there. And where am I now? In Indonesia.
So don't give up!

[Madison Monteith]

Thank you!!!
No, I won't give up!!!
But you know my story from the suggestion box...
And it's a little problem: If I go away, I'd probably lose him and I wouldn't see him for a very long time.
It would be the best thing for me if he comes with me for this trip. (too unrealistic)
Well, but nevertheless you're right. He won't prevent me from doing this. He's the strongest man in the world, but I am stronger!!!
In Indonesia? That's cool!!!

I didn't say you have to start right now But yeah, even if it's just in a couple of years, I guess you will be done with him, kind of. Life is going on, blaa. ;)

Yeah it is, mostly. But sometimes it's just terrible.

Well, I'm going to France for three months in 9th grade. I hope I won't miss too much at school, but I already know that I'll miss "you-know-who-I-am-talking-about" terribly. When I decided to do this, I didn't think about him, just about learning French rellay good. And I'll do it mostly because I couldn't go on our France exchange last year, we were to many people and I had been allotted. I hope that loger exchange will be an advantage for me at the end.

[Sonea Ginevra Inava]

Ah, that's great! I hope you will have an amazing time! And maybe it's good, living in a different culture could help you, you will be so concentrated on the language and you will make so many new experiences, I'm sure in the end you will have the feeling that it has been only 3 days and not 3 month. And maybe you have to think less about 'you-know-who'. ;)
I wish you all the best for that time!



I went to cinema yesterday and mostly the international movies are in english and only have subtitles. So I went there with a friend (german) and she didn't understand anything at all, she's already living here since 4 month and is teaching english but she's not able to understand an english movie... Okay, to be honest, The Hobbit ist not easy, but yeah, still. And she was sooo surprised when I told her, that I love reading english books or watching english TV-shows and movies..

[Madison Monteith]

Thank you for your wishes!!!
Oh my god, I did an awful lot of mistakes in my last post...
In 6th grade, we watched "The little Nick" in French... and I also read a lot of English books, I love it!!!

[Honigtopf]

Uh, I didn't know there already was an English Thread.
Mind if I join in?

I also read a lot of English books. My favourite so far (besides Harry Potter) is Oliver Twist.
What about you? Any favourites?

I hope you'll enjoy your trip to France, Madison.

[Madison Monteith]

Thank you.
It's a pleasure o meet you in this Thread!!!
Yeah, I hope the trip will be a very productive one, so that I learn a lot, not only French...
My favorite von was "Holes" of Louis Sachar so far. I love his books!!!
