<p>thanks =) i also speak 3 languages..idk if thats a hook or not..

<p>Seriously, schools often ask you in your apps about what makes you unique. Thats where you write that you speak 3 languages. Thats REALLY impressive.</p>

<p>thats a unique idea...i've never heard of doing the whole language-paper thing..my 2nd language would be kind of hard because the letters arent roman..so my syntax & stuff would suck..LOL..but thanks!!</p>
