Cool, the only places i'v been to is Canada and China (to visit relatives)
Je parle francais et chinois. (I think) Je ne parle pas anglais. In case you don't know french i said i speak french (not fluent YET) and i don't speak english. Oh course that means i am not typing this and all this is coming from a translation machine-mo-bober.

That's correct, that first part. Me? I've been to Mexico, Canada, the Philipines, China, Japan (once when I was 3), and a lot of places in the USA... and some Carribean isles.

I'm lame. At one point I was going to be a translator, but since then, I've changed my mind.
I obviously know English. I also have two years of high school American Sign Language under my belt. One of the Colleges I'm looking at going to would allow me to get three more years of ASL, but that school is on the back burner right now.
I had a Japanese tutor at one point, but he ended up moving shortly after we started, so that fell apart.
One day I have hopes of learning quite a few languages (Japanese and French being two of them.) They might help me, seeing as my current career path has me set to be a pilot ;)
