I've been talking to my new German penpal today, she's helping me with my German and I'm helping her with her English. I think it's far too soon for me to be speaking German to her, my vocabulary is extremely limited, I think she would have a better time with an more advanced speaker. She has complimented my accent though ^_^.
I've been picking German up quickly, I'm trying to dedicate my time to my language studies, I procrastinate way too much.
Her English is very good though, a few grammar mistakes she makes from time to time and she has a pleasant German accent, but nothing
too bad.
The website I'm on is
Italki.com, check it out if you need to work on your foreign languages.
In other news I learned that Brandon is planning on visiting Germany soon to go meet his "online girlfriend" *facepalm*
He says he barely speaks the language and is going to rely on her to help him get around... I'm still iffy about him traveling and spending so much money to meet a 23 year old girl he met playing FFXI.(He's 18)
I've asked him about having me tag along, he's already bringing Zach, might as well include me as well, at least I can speak a little bit, and it would be good for me to go ahead and get inside the country so I can immerse myself in the language.
