That is generally either a failing of our terrible educational system, or just outright individual laziness.
"Your"/"You're" and "their/they're" are especially easy to tell apart when spoken properly, because they should sound quite differently.

Whoever said that ? English is one of the easiest, and French is certainly one of the hardest.
My (adoptive) parents did, along with a bunch of other people in my Church. I must live around strange folks.
Personally, out of all the languages I'm exposed to, French and Tagalog in terms of diction are hard. Especially when I have a lot of Filipino friends on Facebook that posts Tagalog posts and jokes. And here I am trying to pronounce stuff like those weird "ng"s or and "nga"s. Seriously, I'm Filipino, and I've NEVER learned my own language.
A friend of mine has agreed to help me draw. On the computer, at least. I must say, he does have quite a high level of patience, lol. I think I will stick to paper and paper for now. Here is the attempt. You can guess which side is mine:
Its hard to control the mouse on the computer ._. That is why his right arm is goofed.
At least on paper, you have more control. In my opinion. I need to get PaintTool SAI and practice,
a lot. XD
- Ahh, they are both so cute! I hope that you get the tool and keep on practicing! 
I scared a girl at Church today. This girl had been talking smack about my best friend behind her back, so I feel pretty good about scaring her. I hope she stays scared. 
...I don't know how I scared her, though. 
I was supposed to go to a anime convention in Indy a couple years ago. It would have been so much fun! I just know it!
We're there any famous speakers?
............................
Hetalia=awesome, that's what it is. One of my friends is a big fan of it.
...............................
Aha, my friend absolutely loves Hetalia. Her favorite character is England, haha.
I'm not much of a fan when compared to her, but it's still a good anime, IMO.
.........................
Oh my, we're talking about Hetalia. I just love it. My abosolute favorite characters are China, Austria, and Poland. (What a combo! XD) But, I should stop here before I start fangirling.
Just another thing, Hetalia is one of the only reasons I passed my history classes.
Whew. XD
I still really want to watch Hetalia. If Germany is charactarized the way I'm hoping he'll be, I'm guessing I'll like him a lot.
I just changed my avatar! Beth from
Petite Princess Yucie FTW!!! (I don't know why I'm so excited about this. XD)
Kanji for Japanese is a nightmare, I started French but it was too easy, so I switched to Japanese. English is considered one of the hardest languages NOT because of speaking it, it's grammar and sentence structure that makes everyone confused. No offense, but why do you think foreign people speak in mostly broken English?
And I just finished a power point for Google in my ATC class...
So.
Bored.
Let me see your French then.
So, there was just a 4.5 earthquake where I am. I was sitting down on my beanbag chair while watching one piece and the ground starts shaking, it was kind of scary, haha.

Earthquakes are scary Especially if you've never experienced One. I never thought I would, but one morning at my aunts house, I did. I never knew Indiana could get earthquakes until then.

The dude who voices Gaara will be there and also the dude who plays Ezio from the AC Revelations trailer:o
Speaking of Cons, our school is hosting a con, haha. But since it's this Saturday, none of my friends can go and nor can I, since we're all in the band and have a major competition on that Saturday. It sucks, because my friend has been planning a cosplay for the con for months!
English is rather complicated in terms of rules though Kai-V.
Honestly, Mandarin is seriously hard, memory is pretty much all it is.
Remember that Earthquake on the East coast some months ago? That was pretty scary, and I forgot to hide under a table or doorway...
IMO, I don't really understand how the doorway thing would work. The table, maybe, but the doorway would probably just fall on you.

... Have you taken a physics course ?
Or, have you seen all those fighters or whatever who break pieces of wood or even cement ? They all do it with the piece laying flat, not standing upward.
Nah, I'm still in Middle school.
And, yeah, I
I'm really sorry. I can't delete or edit my post.
But on another note, I kinda get it now.
