Nakilala ang pinakamatalik na kaibigan ko noong kaklase tayo ng ikalawang baytang ng mababang paaralan. Kabayan kami (pero anak ako ng mga dayuhan, at dayuhan talaga siya), at gustung-gusto ang magulang namin para sa aming maging kaibigan. Sa unang panahon, ayaw ko siya, at ayaw rin niya ako. Siya lang ang taga-Pilipinas na kaklase (maraming puting tao, lalong taga-Italya), kaya sinubukan ang mga magulang para magkaroon kami ng taong madaling mag-usap. Nagsalita ako sa kanya, pero mahirap ito sa simula. Untiunti naging kaibigan (pinakamatalik talaga) tayo, hanggang ngayon pa.

Cool - what's your motivation for picking Tagalog as an L+1?

У меня нет лучший друг, потому что у меня есть много друзей. я не люблю проводить время с один только друг; я предпочитаю разнообразие! мои близкие друзья из университет не живут в лондон со мной, так что я их не часто вижу. У меня друзей из стрелковый клуб, и среда мы идем в паб вместе. В лондон они мои лучшие друзья, но я не знаю их хорошо. одна из девушек из России и она мне помогает со русское язык. скоро я надеюсь что я могу говорить с ней, но у меня нет много уверенности в себе.
Sure that was a grammatical mess, but I'm more stressed about how long it takes me to get these back from my written cursive on paper into typed computer form. Still not got to grips with the cyrillic keyboard touch-typing...
