Yes lol

I got a whopping 3 ish hours last night. I give up

As a side note, I really wish I was bilingual :c

Sorry to hear about your poor sleep! I was awake at 4am today myself. Not the greatest.

What makes you long for bilingualism? I'm bilingual and don't find it gives me too much of anything, though it does help to be able to communicate with more folks I suppose.

I am bilingual as well and it does help to communicate better with people. It's a great advantage to have because you may be able to get better jobs and actually qualify for more incentives.

Good points. I guess I don't really see the advantage part of it in my life, as just about everybody is bilingual in my neck of the woods. Gotta move somewhere else to reap those kinds of rewards. :P

What languages do you manage? For me, it's English and Spanish.

Well now I understand the Spanish greetings that you give out in the General lounge much more! Very cool.

I'm fluent in English and French. I learned some Spanish in high school, too, but I've not retained a ton of it into the present day. Still, there have been one or two times whilst on vacation in Spanish-speaking countries where I said a few things to locals and earned a bit of credit and likeability from their surprise. :P

¡Sí! That's exactly the reason why I addressed in you Spanish a few times :P .

Ah, yes, Spanish is awesome. We have different variations depending on the country that you are visiting, but the main idea should always get across. I believe the French accent is one of the best in the world ^_^ !

Sounds like the difference between French from France and the French Canadian version of French. Our accent is allegedly much worse-sounding than a French speaker from France, though. :P
