I Celebrate Myself, and sing myself (Free verse) by ChunkyHunkyMonkey
I Celebrate Myself, and sing myself everyone thinks Im unique and they are right. Reason being I can speak 3 languages and yes to some that seems like an accomplishment. To me it seems like a dream or a wish. I amaze myself cause sometimes I stop to think wow I really can speak three languages. In my own little world I imagine myself making up a new language such as Spanglish, Frenglish, Sprench, or better yet Sprenglish. I know it looks like a bunch of made up words, but to me they are words of wisdom. To some of my friends they actually do understand these words. Yes people have asked me before How do you do it? And I answer Simple, all you have to do is set your mind to what you want to do and do it. I do make my parents proud, yes but to me learning these three languages, let me tell you, it has not been an easy road. First of all you must master the Spanish the then you probably can go either way by learning French or English. But this has given me an advantage because I will most likely get a good job as a translator or interpreter. Everyone also thinks Im hyper and funny and yes those are just a little something extra that god has given me to attract friends. Some people believe in me by saying I will do great things, the three first people that ever said that were my dad, my mom, and yes my sister. So yes being funny and hyper now has given me the opportunity of getting to know people from different countries because if I ever wanted to get a girlfriend all I have to do is either say Te Amo, I Love You, Jai te adore. Im not sure about that last one in French because I havent taken French as long as Spanish or English. But I know that Im a unique person in my own little crazy way. Im sure everyone is unique in his or her own way. Though people confuse me for different cultural background I know in my heart that I will always be a true 100% Latino. Friends as well as teachers are amazed by my own little skill to work with other people so easily and freely and why because I can speak three different languages. Im proud of myself as well. I do sure hope that in the future I will learn more and more languages along the way the only question remains will I master the language and learn it? We will just have to find out wont we?

wow. Even though I already knew it. I still find you a good person. I'm glad I decided to take the "plunge" and realize that it's ok to go out with ppl. Especially you.

Yeah, well, sprechen sie Deutsch? Kanst du spielen der guitarre UND die saxophone. It's je t'amore in french though. I'm also taking a begginers course in Russian so by the end of next year i will be able to speak 4 languages!!!! I like this though, prose is more useful than poetry somethimes.
