Well, I wish you maximum good luck with it :3 Oh no, that sucks that you had a rude teacher >.< Bad teachers suck in general. Most of mine were crap, haha. And the only language option we were given at my school was French, which I took because I wanted to at least try to learn something, but she wound up leaving halfway through the year, so then we had nothing! It would be really nice though to know a whole bunch of languages :3

Well, your English is great! It's better than some people I know who are actually UK natives, haha. I tried to learn Japanese online, but I hit the paywall for more lessons and couldn't afford it so I kinda just gave up >.<

Sadly, we only see our Polish relatives like once every 10 years :( Only one of them is fluent in both Polish and English since she's a schoolteacher in Poland teaching English to the kids there, but some of them are trying to learn as well :3 And some of them speak Polish and German but no English, so maybe if I can keep learning German, we might be able to talk a little bit, haha. They have invited us over to stay with them before (we did a long time ago for a wedding in Poland where the whole family gathered :3) but I'm too scared to travel and stay on my own >.< I wish I could be a more confident person and just do it! But I know I would struggle to make conversation and stuff because of my stupid anxiety :(

You're totally right though! I've heard that too about surrounding yourself with the language you're trying to learn :3 I attempted to do that when I started German by only watching German shows on Netflix xD I think it helped a little bit, but they speak so fast on the shows compared to the lessons, haha.

That would be so cool though to be able to think or dream in another language! And mixing languages is really cool too ^-^ I hope I can be like that one day too!

Hehe, we never knew how to spell our relative Ania's name for a long time because sometimes she signed it as 'Ania' and sometimes as 'Anna' so we never knew which was the correct one >.< I think it's a very pretty sounding name though :3 In my school, there was only one Polish girl, and her name was Karolina, haha. It would have been cool to be friends, but she was really outgoing, sporty, and just generally had a lot of friends anyways cos she was like a big ball of energy and sunshine all the time, haha. Whereas I was just a shadow xD

My cousin who does acting and stuff sometimes actually had to change his surname (not legally, but like pick a different performer name) because he was told that ours was too difficult to pronounce and too foreign-sounding, and that would stop him from getting work! o.O That's so stupid >.<” Because it's a Polish name from my grandad's side of the family, haha. But then even our relatives n Poland think it's a weird-sounding name that probably didn't originate from there xD So none of us actually knows where it comes from, haha.

But yeah, changing stuff legally must be such a pain in the butt >.< Hope you can do what you want one day though :3

Yeah, I guess that makes sense with it being so religious there that Halloween wouldn't be a very big celebration >.< But yeah, I think as you say, that will change over time cos the young people will probably bring it more attention in the future. Just might take a while for things to change x3

But heck yes, Halloween is sooo much better than Christmas :P I was reading all those things like atmosphere, autumn, costumes, pumpkins, nodding my head like, yep, yep, yep. Then when I read Michael Myers that made me laugh x3 True though :P

Actually, over here, we have some of the scare places that do spooky Christmas horror events xD Not many, but they exist, haha. They're like, nope, Halloween is not over just because it's Christmas, we will have a horror Christmas instead :D I really need to visit one of them, but they're always far away from where I live T_T Hope your week is off to a good start ^-^
